This was the best dog sitting experience I can imagine! Ellen was quick and clear in communication prior to booking and made it very easy when we decided to do a Meet and Greet. She went above and beyond to make things as simple as possible to accommodate my travel and preferences. Ellen sent the cutest pictures and updates while I was away, and it was clear my dog could not have been in better hands!

Ellen is great! She goes out of her way to ensure my anxious pup is happy and comfortable. Great communication: She keeps me posted on how he is doing and doesn't hesitate to ask questions about his little quirks. After only one day with Ellen, he hops in the house with tail wagging! Thanks Ellen!

Information Ellen O. would like to know about your pet

The more information clearly communicated about ahead of time, the better! Please be prepared to provide the following information written out: Your pet's idiosyncrasies (so I know that their behavior is normal if it's something I'm not used to!) Food schedule Any info around treats Where do they usually sleep? Are they allowed on furniture? How long can they go before they need to be let out? How many times a day do they usually go out? What kind of an activity schedule are they used to? (Tons of activity in your home / a quiet home / a noisy home / lots of humans around / few humans around, etc) Will your dog be freshly washed / groomed before they stay with me? Is your dog crate trained / do you provide a crate / is it something your dog will not need? When your dog wants to find a safe space, what do they do / where do they go? A brief summary of your itinerary and how to reach you Vet Contact info Preferred Animal ER contact info (if anything happens) An emergency contact who can make decisions for your pet's medical care if you are unreachable Any spending limits for vet / ER care Anything else that's unique - the more info the better since your pet can't easily communicate with me!

A typical day

We have a great neighborhood to walk in with lots of other dogs who walk regularly, so there's lots to sniff and learn about! The backyard is small but just the right size to run a little and relax.
