Safety, trust & environment

I take the care of another's space very seriously, doing my best to leave things as I found them. When I’m caring for pets, whether it’s in my home or yours, my main goal is to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I like to keep their routine as close to normal as possible — same walk times, meals, and plenty of play and cuddle time. In my home, I make sure there’s a comfy spot for naps, space to play, and lots of attention. When I’m at a client’s home, I treat it with respect and care. Every animal is different, so I take the time to get to know what makes each one comfortable and content.

Information Ella H. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know your pet’s routine, favorite activities, diet, any meds or quirks, and what makes them happiest. The more I know, the better I can care for them! I look forward to meeting them!

A typical day

I ensure each pet is enriched physically and mentally. We’ll go on walks, play fetch, explore new smells, and enjoy plenty of cuddles. Whether your pup loves running, playing, or just chilling, I’ll make sure they have a good time!

15 years of pet sitting experience

Pet care experience

I have a strong speciality working with felines and canines. Throughout the years, having pets of my own and pet sitting, I gained hands-on experience providing safe, effective, feeding, bathing, cleaning, and enrichment (including exercise) to varying animals through positive reinforcement. Additionally, taking animal behavior courses over the year's I learned a strong understanding how to interpret and respond to different species behaviors, such as fear. I then translated this knowledge working with fearful and traumatized canines to build their trust over time and to create positive associations in my personal time.

El watched my kitty Rosemary for 4 days early 2026 and they had the greatest time together from the photos I got. Always stayed to make sure she had enough human time and took extra care to make sure she was always satisfied at the end of the day. 2 visits a day 4 days in a row I came back to my same happy cuddly kitty not seeming to have felt left behind.
