Pet care experience

Animal Behaviourist and Trainer

Thank you for considering my pet care services. My aim is to provide a safe, caring and enriching environment where your dog can feel relaxed and at home while you're away. I hold an MSc in Clinical Animal Behaviour and have over two years of professional experience as a dog trainer, giving me an in-depth understanding of canine behaviour and welfare. When your dog stays with me, their care is tailored to their individual needs, taking into account factors such as their age, breed, temperament and personality. You can also have peace of mind knowing that I understand canine learning and behaviour, meaning I will avoid unintentionally reinforcing or creating unwanted behaviours. I also hold a Level 2 (VTQ) Canine First Aid qualification, giving you added reassurance that, in the unlikely event of a medical emergency, your dog would be in safe and capable hands while in my care. Furthermore, I am fully insured for the services I provide, meaning appropriate protection is in place should an accident, injury or damage occur during your dog’s stay.

Ella is a fantastic pet caregiver, with her innate empathy and compassion for all. She is kind, organised and caring. I’d 100% recommend to all.

I couldn’t recommend Ella highly enough! She has cared for my dog on multiple occasions, and I have always been incredibly impressed by her knowledge, experience, and natural ability to connect with dogs. Ella has a Master’s degree in Animal Behaviour, and her extensive understanding of canine behaviour really sets her apart. She is exceptionally good at recognising individual dogs’ needs, whether that’s anxiety, nervousness, hyperactivity, or simply understanding their unique personality and traits. Most importantly, she knows how to respond to these behaviours in a calm, patient, and positive way, helping dogs feel safe, comfortable, and understood. Her knowledge of dog behaviour and training is incredible, and it’s clear how passionate she is about animal welfare and providing the best possible care. You can have complete peace of mind knowing that your dog is not only in safe and capable hands, but with someone who genuinely understands them and cares about their wellbeing. Ella would be an absolutely fantastic choice to look after your dog, and I would recommend her without hesitation!

Schedule

I am currently working from home with sporadic hours, so I have lots of time to take your dog(s) out to the lovely parks near my house! I can also board on weekends depending on availability, so I am very flexible and can look after your dog(s) for an extended period of time!

Safety, trust & environment

As mentioned, there are several lovely parks just a few minutes from my home that are perfect for dog walks. I aim to keep your dog’s routine as close to normal as possible during their stay. I have a spare room available if they prefer their own space, a crate for dogs who find them more comfortable, and they’re also welcome to sleep on the furniture if that’s what they’re used to at home. I don’t have any pets of my own, so your dog(s) will receive my full attention throughout their stay.
