Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs, cats, and bugs since I was little. My experience with cats is greater only because I grew up with them, but my experience with dogs balances out because family and friends have all relied on me to take care of their pet's needs since I was little. I also currently work part time at a doggy daycare/boarding service as a lead, which puts me in the back with all their dogs. The job requires me to perform grooming services such as nail trimmings, ear cleanings, brush outs, and baths. I've also had to treat dog injuries and break up fights. Stay the night, drop in for a little, take them on a walk, ok I will as long as you and your pets are happy.

Ella has been an absolute gem as Roscoe’s Rover pet sitter! Right from the beginning, she was incredibly accommodating, setting up dates for us to meet and ensuring a smooth introduction between Roscoe and herself. It was clear from that first interaction that Roscoe was immediately enamored with Ella, his tail wagging enthusiastically in response to her warm demeanor. Once entrusted with access to my apartment. Ella went above and beyond in her care for Roscoe. Every visit was not just a routine check-in but a heartfelt greeting filled with genuine love and attention. It was truly heartwarming to see the bond that developed between Ella and Roscoe, and I could tell that he was in the best hands possible. One of the standout aspects of Ella's service was her excellent communication. I received regular updates, complete with details about Roscoe's activities and well-being. This level of transparency was not only reassuring but also refreshing, as it showcased Ella's commitment to providing the best possible care. What impressed me the most was Ella's ability to not only follow but also intuitively understand Roscoe's needs. She seemed to handle him with a natural ease and affection that mirrored my own. It's evident that Ella is not just a pet sitter; Ella is a true animal enthusiast who genuinely enjoys her role. In summary, Ella is hands down the best pet sitter I've come across. Her professionalism, compassion, and ability to connect with animals make her a standout choice. I have complete confidence in Ella's care for Roscoe, and I'll undoubtedly be reaching out to her for future pet-sitting needs. Thank you, Ella, for being an invaluable part of Roscoe's life!

Ella dropped by the house to cat sit Mitchell for 8 days - I had a whole checklist of all the things that need to be done for my baby while we were away - and she did all of ‘em + more (cuddles and love)!!! I always feel at peace when booking Ella to look after Mitchell because she does so well with him. Ella’s trustworthy and gets the job done, no doubt. I definitely recommend her & will for sure book again when the need arises. Thanks Ella!!! Mitchell thanks you too, you’re considered one of his best friends 💜

Thank you Ella for taking care of Kenichi! She was available for the holidays and I thank her that she was able to extend her stay when we had medical emergency. Also, she cleaned the house and took care of Kenichi like her own. I wish to work with her again in the future!

I really appreciate Ella being here for my boy. She even took out the trash, which I didn’t expect her to. The little things that make you happy ?. Ella does have a work schedule besides house sitting and is gone most of the day on Saturday. But she had informed me about it and I was ok with it. Thank you, Ella! TJ and I really appreciate you!!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in my home and my clients home the same way, they're always getting the best I can give them. Obviously client pet care is different only because I am then taking care of the pet based off what my client tells me about their specific needs. I also always find it important to build relationships with the pet so it can trust me and be less stressed/more comfortable during my stay.

Information Ella M. would like to know about your pet

It's always important to know about any medical conditions or needs beforehand so I can understand what your dog or cat will personally need. Of course daily routines and basic needs are a must for any pet, along with how well the dog(s) interact with people and other dogs so I can properly prepare before going out with the dog and properly take care of it. It's also important for me to know and understand how comfortable any cat in the home is with strangers so I know and understand it's boundaries.

A typical day

I love to play with the dogs I watch, we'll do tug of war, fetch, or just run around, whatever the dog wants to do/whatever we can do. I also like to walk dogs around the block, in parks, or wherever we can go nearby. Usually I walk dogs along the linear park near my house, it's always nice and pretty. Of course cats are just as important when it comes to pets, I will interact with the cat according it's comfortability with me, unless absolutely needed like medication or something.
