I work part time currently so I generally have lot of hours I can visit with my furry friends. I want the time away from their people to be as easy on them as possible.

Information Ella R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special qualities or quirks that your pet may have. Triggers or anxieties do not scare me but going in being set up for success and knowing what makes your pet tick is very helpful.

A typical day

I love to keep pets brains as stimulated as possible, whether that be through play, puzzles, or cuddles. Each pet has their own individual needs and I cater to each animal as their own person.

Pet care experience

Hey there! I'm Ella. I'm a veterinary technician who loves animals! I've been working in a veterinary hospital for over 5 years now and so I'm used to handling dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Personally I've had dogs and cats my whole life and can't imagine a day without them. I even have my own exotic pets and am comfortable caring for fish to lizards to guinea pigs or parrots. I'm passionate about what I do and sometimes think I get along better with animals than with humans. I'd love nothing more than to get your furry friend out of the house for a while or keep them company while their people are gone. I'm confident in my animal care, can administer medications, and have veterinarian phone numbers on standby if they were ever needed. I look forward to hearing from you and your pawed companions.
