0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Availability

I work remotely and have a good amount of flexibility to drop in/walk dogs or cats. I love being able to take my own dogs out for a walk for fresh air whenever I want, so I would love to extend that availability to someone else's pets.

Safety, trust & environment

I take my own dogs on multiple walks daily and am obviously responsible for their health and well-being, and am with them 24/7. It's important to me that a clients animals feel as comfortable and safe with me as my own pets. I am happy to do whatever they need!

Information Ellen H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors so I can plan accordingly. I do have some slight experience with dogs of special needs, but nothing extensive so please keep that in mind.

A typical day

My dog is a high energy dog and loves to play, so I have plenty of experience getting a dogs energy out! I am happy doing whatever is your pets favorite past-time, whether that be going on walks or runs, playing fetch, or other games. I also can provide some very basic training if requested!

Pet care experience

Hi! I live in Charlotte, NC with my two dogs Sunny and Remi. My family has owned or taken care of pets since I was a child, and I raised puppies from birth when I was in high school. I absolutely love animals and am looking to help out with some furry friends on the side. I am available to do drop-ins and walk your pet. I cannot think of a better job than getting to take care of animals in my free time. I look forward to meeting your fur babies!

Always communicative and even helped bring in big packages we received while we were away! She went above and beyond to make our pups feel loved and us at peace while away.

Ellen was amazing. Our cats immediately warmed up to her and were very well cared for. She also is so great with communication and photos, even over the holidays!
