Pup owner and lover!

Pet care experience

Along with caring for my own dog, I have taken up walking other neighborhood dogs both with my pup and solo. As a pet owner, I am experienced in all needs of dogs and puppies and can provide a safe and loving environment to your dog.

Ellen is such a lovely caretaker of our pup! After just staying with her once, he was over-the-moon excited when he next saw her. Ellen’s dog Simon is so well behaved and a great role model for our young pup. Ellen takes amazing dog photos, kept me up to date the whole time, and I could tell she took great care of Salvo. Would highly recommend her!

My dog Zoey is very nervous around new people but she loved Ellen from the start! Ellen was very responsive and I knew Zoey was in good hands. Highly recommend!

Ellen is a wonderful dog mom to her pup Simon and would be a fantastic caregiver for any dog! She is highly responsible and organized and very trustworthy. Can't recommend her enough!

There is no better dog mom than Ellen. I am confident she will use that same love and compassion when caring for your fur baby. Ellen is kind, responsible, clean, and excellent with time management. She will be prompt and understand the importance of providing the very best care for your best whether that is an afternoon walk, feeding your pet, or an extended stay. As a pet owner myself, I could not recommend Ellen more.

I have my own dog, a loving cavapoo, with experience sitting other dogs in my apartment with my dog. I am only a block away from Central Park and a short walk from two different dog parks. Having had a puppy, I know how to keep my place puppy proofed and all items behind closed doors and cabinets!

Information Ellen D. would like to know about your pet

Owners are experts on their pups and I want to become an expert too! Is your dog friendly towards other dogs? Is there anything they are nervous around, children, loud noises, wheels? What is the most important thing I should know about your dog, any special accommodations?

A typical day

I love to start the day with a long walk. On the weekends I like to explore a bit further in Central Park and roam through the Ramble, or as I call it our "city nature walk!" As a special treat, sometimes I will go to two local dog parks, if that is enjoyable for the pup. To relax, sometimes we will hang out by Lincoln Center to get some extra love from the patrons there!
