Pet care experience

Animal lover & rescue hero 🐾

Currently only accepting bookings within Jupiter and nearby areas. Thank you for understanding! 💛 I’ve cared for animals my whole life, dogs, cats, puppies, seniors, and even pets with special needs. I’ve adopted and rescued over 10 animals, including many strays in vulnerable conditions, so I’m very familiar with different temperaments, behaviors, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, keeping up with feeding routines, and giving each pet the individual care they need to feel safe and loved. What sets me apart is the genuine bond I create with animals, I treat every pet like they’re my own!!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet as if they were my own, always prioritizing their safety, comfort, and emotional well-being. I’m mindful of routines, feeding instructions, and any special needs, and I take the time to make them feel safe and relaxed. I’m respectful of the space and always follow instructions closely to ensure both the pet and their parents feel at ease.

Ellen was terrific. Copper absolutely loved having her. Our house was spotless upon return. I would recommend Ellen without hesitation.

Ellen was truly spectacular. Our kitten is very young and we were so nervous to leave him for the night, but Ellen made sure he was fed well, on time and went above and beyond to take care of him and our home! We are so grateful we found her. Highly recommend her for your pet, she’s the best!

Ellen has a heart of gold! She has cared for our 3 dogs on many occasions and they always are excited to see her. And she currently cares for a dog she rescued. Bless her heart!

I highly recommend Ellen as your first choice in a pet sitter. She took great care of our three dogs while away abroad. She walked them daily, played with them in the back yard, took them to the beach and snuggled with them at the end of the day. Ellen loved and cared for our dogs as if they were her own. I appreciated the photos and updates while away, it was absolutely a peace of mind. We came home to happy, content and very tired pups.

Schedule

Right now I’m not working full-time, so pet care fits beautifully into my current routine. I’m home most of the day and genuinely enjoy the company of animals, they bring me joy, comfort, and a sense of purpose. Taking care of pets isn’t just something I do for extra income. It’s something I truly care about and take seriously.

It’s important to know the daily routine, feeding schedule, and any dietary restrictions. I’d want to know about medical needs (medications, allergies, or chronic conditions), their exercise requirements, and how they usually behave with people, children, or other animals. It’s also helpful to learn about their favorite toys, games, and comfort items, as well as any fears or triggers (like loud noises or certain situations) so I can keep them safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
