Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in my client’s home as they request. I’m extremely conscious of special needs and requests and respectful of my surroundings. Can’t forget the constant pictures and updates!

Information Ellen G. would like to know about your pet

Please keep me informed on any dietary restrictions and medications as well as when and how you prefer to administer them. Any preferred toys or parks are good to know about too! The more detail the better.

A typical day

I love to go for walks and explore different neighborhoods! If amenable, I’d love to take your pets on hikes with me as well for some exercise. If we’re staying at home, whatever toys you have will be more than enough to keep us entertained!

Pet care experience

I've always had pets growing up, and now have a fur baby of my own - Poppy! I rescued her as a kitten from a parking lot in Missouri and the rest is history! Proven track record of caring for my friends’ dogs - from your frenchies to greyhounds and everything in between. I understand the anxiety of leaving your fur babies behind when you leave for work or vacation and I look forward to sending you pictures during my visits!

Another great experience having Ellen watch my cats! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was tidy and they were taken care of. Definitely recommend her!

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.
