Highlights
Pet care experience
Ex-athlete who loves animals😊
I have been taking care of pets ever since I was 10 years old! Family, friends, and others have relied on me to care for their pets when they were away.
Cat care experience
Ellen also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I know plenty of parks around town to allow your pet different scenery each time we go out! I am learning the ways to stay in shape while no longer being a professional athlete, so I’ll need a lot of exercise that your pet can help me with(-: As stated above, I love a pet that I can bring everywhere with me (including the office). If your pet is active or more of a homebody, I will happily take care of them and give them the care they need to thrive!
Ratings and reviews
Ellen went above and beyond while staying at my house with my four dogs. She was very responsive to my requests and even shoveled my driveway after the first big snowfall.
Ellen was incredible ! She was an outstanding dog sitter in so many ways. She took excellent care of our old and challenging dog. She communicated and responded to our texts with great compassion! She left our house in excellent shape. Cannot say enough good words about Ellen. By far one of the best dog sitters ever. So thankful we found her!!
Ellen has saved me multiple times this summer when I needed to change trip dates. She was able to step in to do two drop ins a day for my old dog that needs lots of interaction and potty breaks. Ellen is very much appreciated and I highly recommend her if you are looking for someone reliable and that does great updates.
Ellen has provided drop in visits for my old husky several times now. She is friendly, reliable and provides updates with pictures from each visit. Ellen makes me feel comfortable my girl is being well taken care of and relieves lots of anxiety. Highly recommend Ellen if you want to feel comfortable leaving your furbaby.
Ellen is a reliable, trusted choice for care for my pups while I’m away and I appreciate knowing they are safe with her.
Ellen is very personable and ensured I got updates for the drop in visits with my dog Diane. Diane is not always easy to gain the trust of and can be very standoffish. With Ellen, she warmed up much quicker than with many other sitters. It was a relief knowing that Diane was in good hands. Definitely recommend Ellen and hope she can sit for Diane again.

Schedule
As stated in my headline, I am an ex-athlete who loves to care for animals and let them help me get my exercise in! I just started an office job in athletics at UAA, so your furbabies will need to be able to stay home for 8 hours by themselves, or be good office pups! My office is super welcoming of animals so if your furbabies are comfortable with people and settings other than your home I’d love to watch them! I communicate really well and am more than happy to provide updates and pictures as well.

- All I’d need to know is if they are nice around other dogs/people and how long they could be left alone in the house to make sure both of our schedules align!
