Availability

I am a grad student and I would be happy to add caring for your pet into my day or week. I have time to let your pet out about every 4 hours. My schedule is flexible and I am happy to accommodate any special requests. I groomed my golden doodle and gave him all his haircuts for several years. I’d be happy to groom your dog too!

Information Ella M. would like to know about your pet

I can adapt to any special circumstances for your pet. Just let me know ahead of time or when I first meet your pet and we can go over their needs! I want your fur baby to be comfortable and as happy as they can be while you are away.

A typical day

I will take your dog on walks, long or short, and play or snuggle depending on their energy levels. I can teach them new tricks or work on existing tricks. I potty and crate trained my dog and socialized him from an early age, so he is very friendly and gentle with other dogs. I just love animals and will love your fur baby as if they are my own!

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life! Not only my own dogs, but friends and neighbors dogs as well. I love animals and they love me. I am flexible and can adapt to serve your pets needs. I have great attention to detail and care for pets in a timely manner, feeding and walking consistently according to their normal schedule to avoid disrupting their routine. I know how tough it is to leave your pets, but I will give them love and care and send as many pictures as you’d like throughout their time with me.

She's a great person and you can tell that she loves animals. I would recommend using her. She watched my puppy for four days and did a great job.😊

I was so nervous to leave Faith with a stranger, but Ella was wonderful with her!! She came over for a meet and greet the day before. She was extremely patient and low-key, which is just what Faith needs. I was thrilled to receive video and picture updates throughout the day. I would definitely recommend Ella as a sitter for anyone looking in the Shelbyville area :)

Ella was very good at giving updates and letting us know how things were going. She sent multiple pictures daily. I would definitely recommend and have her watch our dogs again.

Ella was wonderful. Ozzy loved her. My wifi went out and I felt so bad, but she didn't complain at all. I would highly recommend.
