Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and a 15 year old jack russel who loves to play with his ball and other dogs. I follow instructions seamlessly to ensure your peace of mind when leaving your pets in someone else’s hands which i know can be quite nerving.

Information Ellie D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs to behaviours that i can account for, i’ll adjust my walk accordingly. My preference is to take small or medium dogs/ puppies for walks or dogs that don’t pull so much on the lead as i don’t go to the gym! I charge a flat rate of 45p per every mile outside of my service radius (8 miles) to account for fuel costs.

A typical day

I love to stimulate your dogs mentally and physically by allowing them to take time to sniff any scent they find interesting and visiting my favourite forest that has a water stream and beautiful autumn scenery.

Pet care experience

I’m 24, I’ve had experience taking care of pets since i was a child. My first responsibility in life was taking care of my black labrador puppy Sadie and the ginger tabby Millie you see in my photos. Sadie passed away in 2018 but Millie is 13 years old and is my best friend to this day. Any age pet is not a problem to me.

Ellie is absolutely amazing!! I could not recommend her enough, from the minute we started messaging about dog sitting for me. She has put me at complete ease. From meeting my pup and myself for hours for free, to dog sitting and sending me countless photos to reassure me. She has been perfect and amazing the whole way through! We love Ellie and so does my pup!! Thank you Ellie, you are absolutely amazing! 🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶

Ellie was very good with our animals. Asked lots of questions to ensure they were happy and had everything they needed. House was clean and tidy when she left. No issues at all

Ellie is absolutely wonderful! Our cat normally shy’s away from people but he really took to Ellie instantly. She took an amazing care of him during our absence. Ellie has a lovely and caring personality, sends lots of pictures daily (which I appreciated) and easy to be contacted by responding to messages promptly. Can’t recommend her enough!

Ellie was absolutely fantastic, it was very reassuring knowing Daisy was being so well looked after and having such a great time! Couldn’t recommend her enough :)
