Need a break? Let me help!

I have been a pet owner for over 15 years, having both cats and dogs. We lost our 9 year old lab last year and out home hasn't been the same without our Lucy. Our 7 year old cross has missed the companionship of having another dog in the house, so we would love to open our home to pet sitting or daily walks.

Safety, trust & environment

With an XL backyard and love for long walks, your dog will be happy and well exercised by the time they come home to you. Does your dog prefer a more quiet environment? I can happily set them up with a quiet space in my house to relax and enjoy their day. I absolutely adore spending time with dogs and really look forward to meeting yours. I require a meet and greet prior to boarding to ensure safety for my kids and pets, so please ensure that is considered prior to requesting a booking :) thanks for understanding!

Ellen does such an amazing job with our babies and it provides a great peace of mind to allow us to enjoy our time away without worrying. She spent quality time with them, gaining their trust and for that I'm very grateful. The reports that we received after each visit were sure to make us smile knowing our cats were in great hands.

Wow! I don't know how lucky I could have gotten to find Ellen. She was caring, considerate, friendly, accommodating, and absolutely amazing for our dog. I'd be thrilled if I never needed anyone else ever. My dog loved her so much, and every picture I got she was so happy. Would highly recommend her to anyone, you'd be lucky to have her provide care for your pet.

Our dog had a great time with Ellen and came home exhausted from playing with the kids and the big yard. We will definitely be bringing our dog back to Ellen. Good communication and appreciated all the pictures.

Excellent dog care! The yard is amazing and our dog was in trusted hands. We will for sure be using Ellen's services again.

Ellen was great. She was so easy going with Sako's needs and always sent updates to tell me how my dog was doing. My flight got delayed and I had to pick Sako up way later than planned and she was so nice about it. I can't reiterate how awesome of a babysitter she was. Sako immediately felt right at home in her house, and seemed to have had a blast with Ellen's dog, family and cat. I would chose her again in the future

Ellen is fantastic with my 2-year-old pup! He is always so happy and excited to see her and thankfully for him, she is extremely patient. Her dog is also very playful and got along with my pup right away - they love playing in the large yard she has to offer. Ellen is incredibly friendly and her love for dogs is very evident. 10/10 would recommend!

I appreciate knowing any dietary concerns, any behavioural considerations, and your dogs likes and dislikes please. I do require a meet and greet for boarding bookings to ensure my dog/cat and my kids get along with your pet. This has typically been very successful for us!
