Safety, trust & environment
Your pup will enjoy the run of my place but feel free to bring a crate if that is preferred. I do have a small crate if you would like to use mine. I also have extra snuggly cushy pet beds!

Information Ellen W. would like to know about your pet
Please provide me with detailed information on meal time, food preferences, treats given and frequency and number of walks needed per day as well as the distance a typical walk could be. All needs will be met meticulously!
A typical day
The neighborhood I live in has a super safe cute little enclosed dog park (see pics) where dogs can run off leash and play. I also like to do walks around the neighborhood so if your pup has the energy, he/she will get in his/her daily steps - while I get mine in, too :) We also have an on-site full service pet spa where for an additional fee, I can pamper your pet with a bath and blow dry!

Extraordinary Care for Your Pet!
Pet care experience
Do loved and adored describe how you feel about your fur baby? Welcome to La Maison de Gigi where your precious pup will receive the ultimate in one-on-one personal care and attention while you are away on business or personal travel! I limit my care to one special guest at a time (unless you have siblings or two pups) who will share Gigi's tranquil sunny space. Your pup will receive frequent strolls around the neighborhood with Gigi and me from morning until bedtime. I generally work from home so your pup will rarely be alone - and of course will always be with Gigi :) I have a big sunny living room with lot's of windows and perches to take in the sights from the couch. Photo texts provided for updates. Gigi likes her food served with steamed rice and mixed veggies - and your pup will receive their food served to their personal taste, too. We have lot's of toys here to share - a true concierge style home away from home with lot's of playtime and TLC! Gigi and I look forward to welcoming and pampering your pup soon at La Maison de Gigi!
Reviews

Teddy has now completed two stays with Ellen and Gigi and had fun each time based on the great updates and photos Ellen provided throughout the week. Ellen is also very responsive and accommodating, which I greatly appreciate. Teddy seemed right at home at "La Maison de Gigi", and we will likely book another stay in the future!

Marlee loved hanging out with Ellen and Gigi for the week! Ellen was very responsive and sent many cute pictures of Marlee and Gigi romping around. Highly recommended and will definitely book again for my next vacation.

Ellen was great with Tommy! She gave me frequent updates with pictures and really treated him like he were her own. Tommy LOVED Gigi and was so sad to say goodbye to her and Ellen. I would recommend her 100% and rebook in the future if I ever need a sitter. She accommodated me despite me giving her such short notice too.

Ellen was amazing with our 2 year old ShiTzu. She provided excellent care, great communication and pictures too! We definitely hope Millie can stay with Ellen & Gigi again. We would highly recommend Ellen for you pet sitting needs.
