Pet care experience

Maternal for dogs only

Hi there! My name is Ellen and I'm originally from Australia! I'm missing my dog back home and would love the opportunity to care for your dogs! I've owned dogs throughout my life and have experience petsitting for neighbours and family friends. Our family got our first dog when I was 7 and he lived for 14 years in our care. This has given me experience caring for dogs of all ages. My family recently got a puppy, so I also know how to care for a puppy still learning the basics of obedience. I am more than willing to look after puppies, adult dogs and senior dogs. I'm happy to do home visits, dog walks and dog sit overnight. I'll give your dog plenty of love and cuddles. I unfortunately cannot look after your dog in my place, but am willing to travel to your home to give your dog the best care possible. I'm missing my dog at home and would love to care for your dog when you need someone reliable. Please get in touch if you're interested in my services in the Brighton area.

Safety, trust & environment

I cannot currently care for pets in my own home. I am willing to adapt to the pet owner's home based on what they have already established with their pet (e.g. allowed outside at certain times).

Ellen has looked after Lulu a couple of times now and is always punctual, polite and great company for Lulu. Great with Lulu being a bit anxious with visitors, stays calm and always manages to calm Lulu down with ease.

Ellen was great. Very empathetic about my fears when it came to leaving Maisie with a new sitter. She took her for walks on schedule and looked after her well. She was on time and trustworthy. We were thankful to have found her. We would use her again. Great sitter. 😊

Schedule

I am currently engaged in full-time work, so I have good availability on weeknights and all day on weekends. I am more than willing to accept last minute bookings. Please note, that I work in office Mondays and Tuesdays every week. This means that I cannot petsit during working hours on those days.

Let me know if your pet has specific needs ahead of time. I am happy to look after dogs that require medication to be administered, but it is important that I am provided with clear instructions to ensure I am taking the best possible care of your pet!
