Highlights
Pet care experience
Bringing out the Best in Every Pup.
I’ve been a lifelong pet owner with years of hands‑on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My journey has grown from family pets to more advanced training — I’m currently working with two active working dogs in sport, focusing on obedience, impulse control, and bitework foundations. Alongside this, I’m wrapping up my Dog Obedience Trainer certification program through Animal Behavior College, which has given me formal training in behavior modification, positive reinforcement, and client communication. This combination of personal dedication, professional coursework, and real‑world training means I bring both compassion and structure to every dog I work with. Whether it’s daily care, structured exercise, or specialized training, I’m committed to creating a safe, enriching environment where dogs can thrive.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
She is incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and exceptional with both training and overall care. She genuinely understands dogs and takes the time to work with them in a positive, structured way. She goes above and beyond to ensure every dog receives individualized attention, guidance, and love. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who truly excels in both dog care and training.
Ellacia was amazing with my dogs. My younger dog requires lots of exercise and attention. They also take a few supplements. I would say my dogs are on the needier side and Ellacia was willing to help with anything and everything. They kept us updated with how they were doing. They even did some training with my younger dog! So happy with this stay and we will be using them again!
"I can highly recommend Ellacia as an excellent caregiver Most places say that they treat your pet like family, Ellacia actually proves it. The pets in their care be it shy, high-energy, or anxious, they took the time to learn how to coax them out of their shell, their exact walking route, or how to reach them. They personalized updates give you total peace of mind."
Highly recommend Ellacia! She watched my Catahoula for three nights and was awesome. She sent tons of daily photos and videos and treated my boy like he was her own pup. Super easy to communicate with and made the whole experience stress-free.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities. I maintain a secure, pet‑friendly environment with a fenced yard and two well‑socialized dogs to provide companionship. I’m experienced in crate training and can easily accommodate dogs who need their own space or structured downtime. Because I’ve completed my coursework and internship through Animal Behavior College and am currently training two working dogs for sport, I bring both professional knowledge and practical experience to every interaction. I understand how to read canine body language, manage play safely, and reinforce positive behaviors. You can trust that your pup will be cared for with patience, consistency, and respect. Whether it’s boarding, training, or daily care, I create a safe and enriching environment where dogs thrive and owners feel confident.

A typical day
A Typical Day: Your pet’s day here is filled with structure, play, and plenty of love. We start with morning potty breaks and breakfast, followed by time in our fenced yard where dogs can stretch their legs, explore, and enjoy supervised play. Throughout the day, I rotate activities to keep pets engaged — whether it’s agility practice, puzzle games, or cuddle time indoors. Afternoons often include enrichment exercises like stuffed Kongs or interactive toys, and in the summer months, pups can cool off in our small doggie pool. Evenings wind down with calm play, training refreshers, and a cozy rest. Fun Activities: - Safe play in a spacious fenced yard - Agility equipment for exercise and confidence building - Loads of toys for interactive play - A doggie pool for summer splash sessions - Enrichment with puzzles and stuffed Kongs - Personalized obedience training and behavior work (as a certified dog trainer)
