Happy to accomote any type of dog!

Pet care experience

I have a diverse background when it comes to caring for dogs. My first dog was a golden retriever puppy, Luke, who I took care of until he was 16. I personally trained my next dog, Bo, a stray I found wandering the streets of Sacramento. In Portland, I have had a multitude of experiences caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and ages. I currently have a small Italian greyhound mix named Fox who gets along with anyone and everyone he meets! We would love to keep your pups company while you are away! I have flexible availability and can adapt to whatever your pet’s needs are. I also have experience with training and would love to help you out with anything you might be working on with your pup!

Ellen and Liz were fantastic (and Fox!). We have a 7 month old puppy and they took wonderful care of him - gave him lots of exercise, and knew just what to do with puppy introductions as well as making the puppy "parents" feel at ease with leaving our energetic guy in their hands. Diggle will definitely look forward to staying again the next time we need to be out of town. Thanks so much!

Appreciated Ellen's flexibility with my last minute request. My pup was a happy camper when I came back, will definitely be contacting Ellen again next time I need a sitter.

Easy to communicate with and responded quickly! We booked Cash's first day-sit really last minute, and they were very understanding. When we picked Cash up he was totally pooped! They went hiking and played all day, he loved it! Thank you!

Ellen is awesome, no problem with a last-minute booking, and Jeb was a very happy boy. Sent photos and was overall super-wonderful. Highly recommended and we will be back!

Information Ellen M. would like to know about your pet

I am comfortable with all breeds of dogs. I like to know the commands your dog is familiar with and the rules you have for the dog or dogs in your house before sitting him or her!

A typical day

I love to exercise with dogs. In my location in North Portland, I am walking distance from 5 parks and Forest Park and Sauvie's Island are a short drive away. Whether your dog needs a few short walks a day or more vigorous activities, I am up for it all!
