Pet care experience
Pet Care You Can Count On
I’ve been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for a variety of breeds and personalities. Growing up, my family had a German Shorthaired Pointer, a Labrador Retriever, and a Boxer-Pit Bull mix, which gave me experience with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. For the past four years, I’ve also regularly cared for a pair of Jack Russell Terriers while their owners were away. In addition, I’ve house- and dog-sat for two Brittanys and have checked in on outdoor cats on multiple occasions. I also have a black tuxedo cat of my own, so I’m comfortable caring for both cats and dogs and understand that every pet has unique needs, personalities, and routines.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. I’ll always treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would my own. I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

Ella came highly recommended to us, and she exceeded every expectation! From the very beginning, we felt completely confident knowing our home and our four-legged family members were in such capable, caring hands. Ella is responsible, thorough, trustworthy, and incredibly attentive — exactly the qualities we were hoping for. It gave us such peace of mind while we were away, and we came home knowing everything was well cared for. We couldn’t recommend Ella more highly and feel so lucky to have found her!
We have trusted Ella to check on our cats while on vacation several times, and she always does an excellent job. She's reliable, respectful of our home, and has a genuine love for kitties!
If I could give Ella more than five stars, I absolutely would! She takes phenomenal care of our dogs and truly treats them as if they were her own. From the moment we leave, we know they’re in loving, capable hands. Ella sends thoughtful daily updates with photos, which gives us so much peace of mind and lets us enjoy our time away without worrying. It’s obvious how much she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after, and our dogs adore her. Finding someone you trust with your pets is priceless, and Ella has exceeded every expectation. She is reliable, compassionate, communicative, and simply exceptional. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for the very best pet sitter. She is a true gem!
