Pet care experience
Loving pet sitting
I grew up on a farm taking care of a variety of animals including everything from ducks to German shepherds. These days, I’m cozied up in a New Jersey apartment with my Sphynx cat Raku. I can provide the specialized care, and attention that your cat needs. I also have experience with both cat and dog bathing and grooming.

Ratings and reviews
Ellen was wonderful caring for my ten-year-old cat Taffy through drop-in visits while I was away. Taffy is ordinarily fearful of strangers, but took a liking to Ellen immediately. Ellen is also a pleasure to work with and I look forward to using her again in my future times away from home.
Ellen was terrific. I have 2 senior cats - 1 with med needs and she was great with them. Ellen was responsive and flexible - I was comfortable that my cats were in good hands 🙌


Ellen did a great job watching my two senior cats, one of which takes several medications. My flight was delayed and I texted Ellen if she could feed the cats an additional time. She sprung into action and I was not worried about them missing a meal. With Ellen you have peace of mind knowing she is taking great care of your pets.


Ellen was great with our very shy and nervous cat. We had never left him alone before, but Ellen sent updates and photos, and he was happy and well-fed when we came home. Would definitely book with her again!

This is the second time I had Ellen take care of my two senior cats. She is awesome with them. They love her!! I have her booked again next month. She is a gem!


Ellen is a very responsible, caring and mature pet sitter. Our confidence in her is well deserved as is the affection shown to her by our two dogs. I would highly recommend her services.

- It’s important to me to know how comfortable the dog is being on a leash and if they have any aggression problems. ie how comfortable are they with humans and are they okay around other dogs? I would also like to know if any allergies and the age/physical condition of the dog for their safety.
