Highlights
Pet care experience
Happy Paws, Happy Trails.
Hi, I'm Ellen. Dogs have always been my number one. Nothing makes me happier than getting outside with them- whether its a long walk around the neighborhood, a hike in the woods, or a relaxed stroll for some fresh air. I spend a majority of time training and adventuring with my own pack of heelers so I know how important daily exercise and enrichment are to a happy dog. I'm patient, reliable and attentive to each dog's unique needs-whether that means a gentle pace for the seniors or extra playtime for the high energy working dogs. With plenty of experience balancing schedules and managing books in my professional life, you can trust that your pets are my priority. I'd love to help keep tails wagging and paws moving. If you need daily walks, or drop-ins, feel free to reach out.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am available for client home visits only as I have a pack of my own dogs that do not travel during my work day.
Ratings and reviews
Ellen provided wonderful care for our 2 large dogs. She responded quickly to our check-ins, sent us pics, and our house was spotless upon our return. She even had our driveway shoveled after a snow fall. We had no worries on our trip knowing our dogs and house were in very good hands! Thank you, Ellen!
Ellen is one of the best people with dogs I've ever seen in my life. She goes above and beyond in taking care of her 5 cattle dogs. I've never seen a dog who isn't immediately attracted to her. She treats every pet like family and you can always count on her to be reliable and attentive. On top of this, She has 5 Cattle dogs of her own so whatever challenge she has in front of her she definitely has it handled.
Ellen is absolutely wonderful with pets. She cared for my senior golden retriever with such patience, understanding, and love. Having years of experience with dogs herself, she knows how to adjust to different personalities and needs, whether that means a slower walk, extra attention, or just a gentle presence. I always felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in her care. She is responsible, dependable, and truly treats every dog like family.
