Dog lover, with pup of my own

Pet care experience

I grew up with a labrador retriever and currently have a 1 year old golden retriever. I work from home so can have full eyes on your dog. There is a great dog park in my building for your dog to run around and play as well as great walking paths and two more dog parks. Friends and family have relied on me to watch their dogs over the weekend ranging from puppies to elderly dogs.

Ellen was so great with Sadie! I appreciated all the updates, photos, and videos and knowing my girl had a constant companion with Ellen’s sweet golden, shae. Will def ask her to watch Sadie in the future!

Ellen did such an amazing job with our puppy goose for 4 days! He was so happy and tuckered out when he came back. He got a ton of activity and attention! Would certainly have goose stay with ellen any time!

Ellen was great! She provided us with many updates via photos and video and was very responsive. Her dog and the dog park at her building were both equally great since it gave our boy someone to play with and a large area for them to play at. Thank you so much!

Great communication. Got daily pics and updates on our pup. Easy pick up and drop off. Our dog is still recovering from playing so much with theirs. Would use again.

I have a large crate, live in a large apartment with great space and have a dog park in the building for potty access and playtime. Apartment is dog proofed and already have plenty of toys / treats for your pup. For transparency, my partner is also a Rover sitter so there are instances where there could be an overlap between two dogs. Please let me know if your dog does not get along with other dogs as I also have a Golden Retriever.
