Pet care experience

30, based in Reddish, Stockport SK5. I own 2 little dogs who will not be present during boarding stays at my home! Either myself or my partner Ella will be at home to look after your pets 😊 I work in an office full time but WFH Thursdays & Ella is at home all day everyday. I’ve been brought up with all kinds of dogs and have a lot of experience taking care of rescues in particular - any temperament, breed or size I am more than comfortable with. I have a certificate in dog walking and behavior and have trained our 3 family dogs on my own since I was 14 and own my own 6 year old Blu (and her litter of puppies in 2021) and 7 year old Nala. Ella has a 5 year old collie Lupo who is also reactive so we are both experienced with all kinds of dogs and their personalities. I am also experienced with administering many different medications and types of foods for dogs. No job is too difficult or too large! Please ask any questions!

Having Ellen stay with our Labrador was the best decision we've ever made! We got lots of lovely pictures and updates, our house was spotless when we came back and she is lovely person. Will 100% book again. Thankyou so much!

Helen was amazing! She was able to accommodate us last minute to look after our fur baby. We got updates often and he was very happy and well looked after! Highly recommend

We left our Cavapoo with Ellen a couple of weeks ago and intend on using her again in the future! Her dog Blu was great interaction for Ted and he came back to us knackered from a full day of fun! Very much recommend Ellen and will be hoping to leave Ted with her again in the future!

Thank you so much for looking after Ginny while we were away! Ellen sent us loads of photos and messages, and generally reassured us that Ginny was okay with us being away. Responded quickly to any messages we sent. Will definitely have Ellen look after our cat again while we are away.
