Pet care experience

I work in a lab at MGH during the day, but I would love to look after your pup while you’re away! I’m active and attentive and ready for anything! I’ve taken puppy training classes with my old dog, Jax, and am happy to try and incorporate any lessons you’re working on into our day together. I can take your older dog on gentle, sniff-filled strolls, or take your excited puppy to the park to get used to socializing, or run with your pup to keep them (and me) in good shape. I’m happy to take your dog on a jog, sit and play with your cat, or just be a person who checks in on them and breaks up their long day awaiting your return. Happy to provide references, my best “meow” impression, or a meet-and-greet with your animal!

I am so glad I found Ella. She was a wonderful caretaker for my dog, who came home happy, healthy, and totally calm from a week-long stay. Our dog loved his visits to the dog park- and I would have been happy to stay with Ella longer. Ella accommodated a non-traditional request for boarding (we came in from out of state) and was an excellent communicator. I would absolutely use Ella again and highly recommend her to others. Thank you, Ella!

Ella has been thoughtful, responsive, and kind with our lovely beast, Maisie!

Ella is an extremely thoughtful and responsible person whom I would recommend anyone use as a pet sitter or walker. Ella grew up with both dogs and cats, so she is comfortable with both. Now in her late twenties, Ella remains a caring and energetic lover of animals (as evidenced by how excited she gets whenever she walks or drives by a dog park!) She does not currently have a pet of her own, but Ella visits my apartment regularly and has built a strong relationship with my cat. My cat can be a little standoffish (shocking, I know), but Ella has gained her trust through her steady efforts to do so over the years. I think you will find Ella to be a reliable, honest, and caring person. I recommend Ella as a pet sitter or walker without hesitation.

Ella is a wonderful, kind, patient person, with a true love for all animals. Having owned a dog herself, and been a lifelong avid dog lover, she is the perfect person to help take care of any pup! She's also highly detail-oriented and communicative, so should your dog watching/sitting needs require specific instructions, she's up to the task!
