Highlights
Pet care experience
Professional full-time sitter
I’m a professional full-time sitter. I grew up surrounded by multiple dogs and I have 20+ years of experience in taking care of dogs of all different types, sizes and behaviors. I’m tall and athletic and can easily handle any type of dog. I am caring, reliable and communicative. I live in a house and I have a big, nice & sunny fenced backyard (please refer to backyard/home photos on my profile). For clarification, pups on my bed on the photo on my profile are not here full time, just previous client’s pups. All other photos of pups on my profile were also taken at my place :) I have experience with dogs that have separation anxiety, reactive dogs, shy/skittish/rescued dogs, senior dogs, dogs with special needs, high energy dogs, puppies, big or small dogs. **For clients looking for house sitting** - if you’re looking for house sitting strictly, unfortunately this is not a good fit as I only do boarding. A lot of clients first search for house sitting but are also open to boarding which is why I have house sitting showing as available on my profile.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Ellen is great, took very good care of our two dogs. Communication, pickup and dropoff were all perfect.
Great time with Ellen. We highly recommend her!
Ellen was great with our pup and super easy to work with. Thank you Ellen and we’ll be happy to book you again in the future!
Violet loved her time with Ellen. It was great knowing she was in such good hands with such an experienced dog behaviorist. Very responsive and easy to communicate with as well
Ellen was a phenomenal sitter for our pup Flynn! She accommodated early drop off and some last minute change in plans. Flynn got to play a lot and she sent plenty of pics. Highly recommend and will use her again!
Ellen was the best! Her communication before and during the time our dog stayed with her was excellent. And Frida came home happy and tired! We will definitely have Frida hang out with Ellen again.
