I work full-time, so I am available for morning check-ins, and am available again after 3:30PM. I recently graduated college, so I am excited to have more time to care for animals (other than my own) in my day-to-day routine again! (:

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in your home. Communication is of high value to me and I am always happy to accommodate for you and your pets needs. I am unable to keep dogs or cats at my house, as my sweet senior boys are not used to being around other animals.

Information Ella R. would like to know about your pet

It is always helpful to have a heads up on any specific needs, so that I know how to best care for your pets. If your dog or cat has special medications to take at certain times of the day, a need for some extra time running around, trouble with urination in the house, etc., it is helpful for me to know so I can be sure to accommodate as needed.

A typical day

If I am doing a drop-in visit, I spend about 20-30 minutes with your pets feeding them, refreshing their water, giving potty breaks, playing with them, and loving on them. If your pets have lots of energy, I’m happy for us to run around in the yard also! (My dog loves doing that.) I am happy to do drop in visits for you for prolonged periods of time. I do not stay overnight, but I will do nightly check-ins and early morning check-ins! Feel free to leave notes for me with instructions or anything you want me to be mindful of and always feel free to contact me!

Loving Care for Your Furry Friends

Pet care experience

I have always taken care of our beloved dogs and cats. Now, I share that same care with other people's sweet kids (that’s what we call them)! I have worked with puppies, kittens, teenage cats and dogs, and senior cats and dogs. I am happy to accommodate for specific needs such as giving pets medications, urinary problems, specific feeding techniques, etc. I love giving pets attention and care, however they may need!

Ella is an absolute angel & such a help. She took care of the kitties like they were her own and I am so so grateful. She went out of her way to make sure they had enough food and love every time she stopped by. I definitely recommend her, such a great gal!

Ella took care of my cats for me while I was gone for a few days and she did a wonderful job. She sent me videos and updates. When I returned, the litter boxes were clean and their water bowl was full. I have a living room camera to watch our cats and Ella was always excited to see them and would greet my cats by saying “hi babies!” They love Ella and will immediately come up to her and want her to pet them.

Ella is FANTASTIC!! First and foremost, she is VERY trustworthy! She follows instructions well and has a wonderful love of animals! When she sat for us I had no concerns for my pets welfare or happiness! She dealt with our rowdy "grand-dogs" as well as our own pets and she was not at all intimidated by the task! The pets all love her also. She was in regular communication during our absence. I would have no reservations having Ella in my home and caring for my pets!

Ella is a huge Blessing to us and we never have to worry about our dogs when they are in her care. We've been so lucky to have found her a couple years ago after quite a few less than great dog sitters - Ella loves and cares for our girls like they were her own. Best thing my wife loves is the EXCELLENT communication Ella provides. When you are away from home and half a day or a full day passes after you check in... and no word from the dog sitter... it's worrisome. No problems like that with Ella. She's amazing and reaches out to us with updates. When we return, we can tell by the dogs demeanor she's taken great care of our dogs.
