Seasoned walker&sitter for all pets

Pet care experience

I have been a pet sitter for many dogs and cats throughout the years. I have walked and sat for both large and small dogs, and cats. I have experience with anxious/nervous pets and know how to respect their boundaries. I have grown up with pets my whole life and after coming to college have missed having a furry friend at home. I love going on walks and playing outside with an energetic dog and I cannot resist playing with the bird on the string toys or a laser pointer with a cat, I am very excited to be able to have that kind of pet engagement in my life again and I’m eager to hear back from you for any opportunity to take care of your furry friends!

Ellen is a responsible college student who loves dogs and has a special connection with every dog she meets. If she says she’ll be there to walk your dog you can depend on her to be there and treat your dog like it is the precious treasures that it is. She will go above and beyond to give your dog a wonderful experience. I recommend Ellen with enthusiasm and confidence because any dog would be lucky to have Ellen as a friend.

Information Ellen R. would like to know about your pet

I have had a small dog for 10 years so they are my preference, but I have taken care of medium and large dogs in the past so any breed is good for me!

A typical day

I am a neighborhood or bike trail walker just because it is easy to navigate where you are and there are always other people around for safety reasons. I love to play fetch and throw frisbees!
