Pet care experience
Pet Sitter: Funding Graduate School
Hi! I’m a responsible, attentive pet sitter who genuinely loves spending time with animals. I have experience caring for dogs and cats with different temperaments and needs, and I always prioritize safety, comfort, and plenty of affection. I’m currently working toward graduate school, so this is a way to support that goal while doing something I enjoy. Because of that, I take every booking seriously and treat each pet like they’re my own. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, medication, or just some extra company while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I’m reliable, communicative, and will always keep you updated so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands. Looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend!

Ratings and reviews
We were in Philly for vacation and needed a sitterfor our furry baby. Ellen was so great. She was very responsive to all of my questions before we arrived. Once there Ellen communicated well about her arrival, was very professional, asked great questions to ensure she had all the necessary information about Sandy and listened closely to our instructions. While watching Sandy she took her for walks, feed her on time, had play sessions, and kept us up to date so I did not have to worry. I highly recommend her for all services from house sitting to walks. We will use again if in town.
We were gone for two weeks and Ellen did a great job! We came home to happy cats and everything was taken care of as requested. She’s very personable and dependable.
Ellen is lovely. She was extremely attentive to Dudley who was not feeling well and making messes in the house. She walked him played with him and kept in steady touch with me. She was wonderful.
Ellen was wonderful with my senior dog and all his quirks. She was communicative and showed a lot of care. I’ve already rebooked walks and a sit with her!
Tops communication and care and responsiveness. Our fur babies love her!
Always so grateful for Ellen’s attentiveness and communication!

Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. In a client’s home, I follow all provided instructions closely, including feeding schedules, litter box maintenance, playtime, and any specific routines your dog/cat is used to.

I also provide updates and photos so you can feel confident while you’re away.
