Safety, trust & environment

Your pets are my priority when pet sitting so I will follow any instructions given to the best of my ability. If your pet has any accommodations such as needing a diaper/ help going to the bathroom, a specific dietary need, medication, etc, I will gladly take care of them! Keeping your house clean is also important, so any accidents (including barf) are no problem.

Information Ella R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any previous medical history or dietary needs, including allergies, oral medication, special accommodations etc. please also let me know how frequently I should walk your pet, meal times, how they prefer to play, and your furniture rules !

A typical day

Every pet is different and I would like to cater to their needs. If your pet likes to chill all day then I am totally down for that. If your pet loves to play, whether that’s tug-a-war, fetching, etc, I will happily do that too! I love pampering a furry friend so lots of love and treats is a guarantee!

Ella was a fantastic sitter for our dog and cat! She gave daily updates and photos, had no problems with our specific feeding instructions for our dog, and left our house in perfect shape at the end of her stay! She was even able to stay a day extra after our flight got cancelled last minute and was super understanding and quick to respond! Our pets obviously had a great time with her and we highly recommend Ella for house sitting!! :)

Ella was fantastic while we were away for 15 days. She sent daily photos (really amazing ones at that) and was very responsive despite the 13h time difference. I would trust and hire her again in a heartbeat!!!

Ella was fantastic watching our pup Bodie! She did a great job communicating with us and left our house in perfect shape. We look forward to her watching him again soon!
