"PAWS"-ITIVELY PASSIONATE PET PAD
Pet care experience
I have fostered many dogs, adopted even more, and truly cherish every minute. I also do transport for dog rescue. My home is dog friendly, i.e., dogs are allowed on the couches and chairs. I also have a large fenced-in backyard for frequent potty breaks, running around, chasing balls, or just hanging out together with me. Dogs will be supervised at all times along with all the unconditional love that I can return to them in kind. I would love to have a houseful of my own, but until then I want to help anyone who needs someone to care for their dog(s) or cat(s). Please let us welcome you and all the family, four-legged or otherwise, for a meet and greet in our home. **For WALKS & DROP-IN visits with NEW clients, a meet & greet is PREFERRED prior to booking.**
Cat care experience

Ellen also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews

Ellen is absolutely amazing. She loves my dogs and keeps me informed on all of her visits. She is so kind snd sends pics of them walking. Rosie loves her and looks forward to her visits. She clearly loves animals and is the best sitter I’ve ever had. I will continue to ask for her as my pet center. She communicates regularly and is truly a wonderful care giver to my pup. Could not say enough positive about her and the care she provides.

Awesome service and great communication!



Ellen is fantastic and sent so many wonderful pictures of our pets. She communicated very well, always sending us updates of what our dogs and cat were doing. The dogs loved her from day 1 and Ellen was so sweet to them.




Always the best!!
