Information Ellie B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs and if they are dog friendly. I have a dog of my own so they MUST be dog friendly if you book boarding or doggy daycare. Thanks!

A typical day

I love keeping dogs engaged and happy throughout the day! I make sure they get plenty of physical and mental stimulation with daily walks, interactive play using their favorite toys, and, of course, lots of snuggles and affection.

Dog Loving Teacher on Summer Break

Pet care experience

I’m a reliable 25-year-old teacher with six summers of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. I’ve looked after many families’ pets while in college and continued pet sitting since becoming a full-time educator. I’m passionate about animals and committed to providing safe, attentive, and loving care.

Our family found ourselves in a last minute jam and needed someone to watch our four dogs, including two larger Husky breeds, overnight going into the weekend. Ellie agreed, thankfully lived near us, and we worked out a good arrangement that took extra stress off of an already very stressful situation. She sent photos regularly so that we could see how the gang was getting along, and she even picked them up and dropped them off, which was a lifesaver!

Ellie is amazing 👏 My pup has so much fun playing with her friends all day and gets sooo excited in the car when she realizes where we are headed 😊 Plus Ellie makes drop off and pick up a breeze so I'm never stressed about work. I am super grateful for her!!

I cannot recommend Ellie enough for anyone in need of a top-notch pet sitter! We were lucky enough to have Ellie watch our golden retriever while we were away on vacation, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met Ellie, we could tell she had a special connection with animals. She was warm, friendly, and immediately put our dog at ease. Throughout our time away, Ellie provided regular updates and photos, giving us peace of mind knowing that our dog was in good hands and getting lots of attention! Ellie's professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals make her the perfect choice for anyone looking for a pet sitter. We returned from our vacation to find our dog happy, healthy, and clearly well-cared for. We are so grateful to Ellie for providing such exceptional care, and we will definitely be booking her services again in the future! Thank you, Ellie, for being an amazing pet sitter and for giving us peace of mind while we were on vacation!!
