Pet care experience

Innate nurturer of all beings!

I grew up with a beloved lab mix and have been fortunate to have several roommates with dogs, which we communally cared for. It’s impossible for me not to care for and love them as if they were my own. Last year I finally gave into the pull to be a dog parent myself and “successfully” foster failed my 1.5 y/o rescue Lua. She’s a 35lb mixed breed, and she's a dog’s dog who loves any opportunity to romp around with other dogs, pending mutual compatibility! My own pup is a bit nervous with new people and needs some time to feel comfortable, so I am very patient with/cognizant of dogs who may need a little extra warming up beforehand. No one knows your dog better than you, and I’m here to make you feel as certain as possible that they are in good hands.

Safety, trust & environment

We recently moved to a new house with a big fully fenced backyard, ideal for play dates and getting zooms! There’s also a park right across the street for walks and sniffs. I will adhere to any/all safety concerns or instructions you may have for your own space. Always following your lead!

Ellie is a great caregiver (humans and pets alike!). She is extremely responsible, timely and loves all furry friends! She grew up with dogs and has always taken great care of them and would take great care of yours. She's comfortable with many breeds/sizes of dogs, and would be a great dog walker/sitter for you!

Ellie is an absolutely amazing pet sitter. She has been a great help with my family dogs intermittently over the years. While I do not live near her anymore I wish I did so I could continue using her services since she is the BEST! I am a positive reinforcement trainer in the city I now live in and know that Ellie will use nothing but kind, gentle, and humane methods when handling your pup! She will treat your baby as if they are her own while she’s with them. Ellie is trustworthy, reliable, and always gave me many updates during her time with my dogs (pictures included). Would highly recommend her services!

Ellie is a responsible, prompt, and a caring person who LOVES dogs! I trust her 100% with both of my senior pit bull breed mixes.

Great with our dogs. I would trust Ellie for all things from walks to overnight stays. She is reliable and trustworthy. Very good at communication.

Let me know if there’s any routes or parks in particular that you know your dog loves, or any places to avoid. I would love to know how your dog gets along with other dogs (the more honest, the better - no judgement here!), their leash skills, and any quirks that make your pup unique (they've all got 'em!)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
