Pet care pro and trainer!

Pet care experience

Without animals, life wouldn't be as fun, would it? Growing up with a Shih Tzu, Guinea Pigs, Dwarf Hamsters, fish and a cat, my life has always been filled with that unconditional love that only an animal is capable of giving. My experience also includes volunteering with animal shelters such as Adopt-A-Pet and Chicagoland Dog Rescue. I have worked with dog breeds big and small. Whether you have a tiny Terrier or a Great Dane, I am happy to help with all your pet-care needs! My passion for excellence and commitment to understanding and nurturing animals will be reflected in the exceptional care I provide for your beloved pets. In addition to my extensive experience as a pet care professional, I also come equipped with training experience as well. I use force-free, positive reinforcement based methods to help aid in behavior modification in both canines and felines.

Ellie was friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and patient. My cat took an instant liking to her and she was extremely competent. I felt like I left my cat in excellent hands while I was away. Ellie went above and beyond when caring for my cat and I am so grateful!!

Ellie is marvellous! Responsive to texts and questions, easy to communicate with and most importantly brilliant with our dog Molly. Molly had a blast with Ellie while we were away and they are now clearly firm friends. I would highly recommend Ellie and will definitely be booking her again. Thank you Ellie!
