Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of all types and needs, and I’ve always owned at least four of my own with various health needs.

Ellen is great with our pups. They are older and needed special care after an accident and Ellen rose to the challenge. She was very responsive to all of their needs and we were so grateful to be able to have a trusted veteran here to help. Thanks Ellen!

Ellen was a great caregiver for my kitten. He loved staying there and making new friends!

Ellen did a fantastic job taking care of our kitty while we were away a few weeks. My wife and I had never had to be away from our cat for so long, and had been apprehensive about whether our cat, normally shy towards strangers, would be all right while we were absent. From her first visit to our apartment, however, Ellen put us all immediately at ease with her calmly confident demeanor. From that first meeting, I never doubted that our cat would be well taken care of, and received further delightful proof in the form of cat photos Ellen sent us daily during our vacation. We returned from our trip to a happy and healthy cat, no worse for the long separation. We feel very fortunate to have been able to entrust Ellen with the care of our little kitty. Highly recommended!

Ellen was wonderful watching my dogs while my family and I were away for 5 days. Plenty of updates with pictures and had no issues at all! She even allowed me to add an extra day, which made my travel plans a lot easier. I definitely recommend Ellen, and will for sure hire her again next time I need help with my dogs!

Information Ellen S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any specific needs or behaviors that I can account for. I have a blind dog of my own and I have plenty of experience administering medication for both cats and dogs.

I take my own dogs for a hike or long walk every day. We spend a lot of time playing in the yard, too. There is a lot of cuddling happening.
