About Ella J.
Safety, trust & environment
Able to meet the pet where they need to be. I realize every living thing exists differently so I just want to make sure the care given never slacks on their normal routine.
Information Ella J. would like to know about your pet
What’s their normal routine? Where can I find their food, is there any special information for feeding routine? Is there any part of them they don’t like being pet? What is their favorite toy?
A typical day
My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, exercised, and entertained while sticking to their normal routine and preferences! Happy to play with their favorite toy, go on long walks, or just coexist with them.

Pet care experience
I've loved and cared for animals my whole life. Growing up, my family had four dogs (two Chow Chows and two Chihuahuas), and I was responsible for much of their daily care, including walks, feeding, and playtime. During college, I fostered litters of kittens, helping care for and socialize them until they found their forever homes. These days, I'm a proud cat parent to my tortoiseshell cat, Church, and I regularly pet sit for friends' cats and dogs. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I'm reliable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm companion, I'll care for them like they're my own. 🐾

Reviews
Ella is an amazing pet sitter & walker - she’s taken care of my dogs Grandpa & Watermelon (both chihuahuas mixes) over the years. She’s patient, and has a deep love for both dogs and cats. Both my dogs had some medication instructions she followed to a T. She sends follow ups and pictures while I’ve out for vacations to let me know how my pups have been doing. She is also aware of each dogs temperament and adjusts accordingly, making sure to meet their needs during walks since one of my dogs gets more tense around other dogs during walks - she understands to veer her away to let them pass with plenty of space. I trust Ella with my dogs greatly.
