Ready to love on your furbaby!

Pet care experience

I've been a dog owner most of my life with my most recent dog being a pit bull rescue. He needed a lot of special attention since he had extreme separation anxiety. He passed a couple of years ago and I'm a bit of a nomad so I use Rover as a way to hang out with pups and not take on a full time commitment. I'm patient and have a soft spot for bully breeds but love all animals. Ive done a lot of cat sitting over the years as well. I currently am a cat owner so I can cater to either animal from young to senior aged animals.

Ellen has been so good with my 6 month old Jack Russell! I will definitely use her again!

I love the communication and the updates that she provided. This was my first time using Rover and I was very happy.

Ellen made my trip out of state so much easier because I knew that my girl was in good hands. She met us prior to the date and was extremely warm and personable. During our trip we received updates and photos and it put me at ease knowing that my pet was safe and not lonely. The photos were also adorable! Gia is very shy and opened up to her rather quickly, which I was also pleased with. I typically feel guilty every time we leave home for extended periods, but hiring Ellen erased all of that and let me enjoy my trip. We will be using her every time we need a sitter for Gia. I couldn't recommend her more!

Ellen did an amazing job with my cat, BB. She left the place spotless and BB was happy when I got home. I will definitely call Ellen again!

I will care for your pet as if they were my own. I am unable to care for pets in my home at this time unfortunately! I wish I could.

Information Ellen M. would like to know about your pet

It's helpful to know how your dog does on a leash and whether or not they do well with other dogs (ie street introductions mid walk) same for meeting people, if strangers pets are okay or not.

A typical day

I recently relocated back to Rochester from the West Coast (I'm from here). I love getting outside and finding all the fun spots to walk dogs and explore. I'm down to toss or kick a ball around, play tug of war or even fill a Kong with peanut butter for a treat!

I work remote from my home in the South Wedge so I can easily fit in caring for your animal into my routine seeing as I have the flexibility with my schedule. For me pet sitting is a hobby. I love getting out of the house and especially being outside and taking dogs for walks.
