I will have a lot of fun with pet(s). I enjoy going to the park or a hiking trail or staying in the backyard. They will be cared for and receive many hags and kisses. I understand the importance of a routine for some pets and will do whatever I can to keep them safe and happy.

Ellen was able to do a drop-in visit on very short notice and was very flexible with our schedule. Our dog loved her immediately and we felt at ease leaving our dog in her care. Thank you.

Ellen has been so helpful and reliable! We are lucky to have her and so is Oscar! She takes great care of him and always goes the extra step. We know Oscar feels safe with her and we are so grateful! Oscar looks forward to seeing her each week and loves getting undivided attention from her.

Ellen is a kind compassionate person who loves all animals especially dogs. She sees each animal for its individual traits and personality and cares for them accordingly. She watches my Lhasa Apso who has high anxiety and Ellen knows just how to help her. Ellen would make an amazing pet care provider!
