Pet care experience

I will love your dog like my own!

After adopting my dog in 2017, I volunteered weekly at the animal shelter I got her from for 3 years, until I moved away for college. Nothing makes me happier than giving dogs the love and affection they deserve. I live to see their happy tail wags!

Safety, trust & environment

I care for all pets with love, care, and respect for their boundaries. I never run up and pick up a dog, and I slowly approach to earn their trust. I have a dog with anxiety and defense aggression so I am more than comfortable handling dogs who are nervous meeting new people. From my shelter experience I have learned well to follow care instructions provided to me to ensure the pet’s safety and comfort.

Ellie was great and we would book with her again. She was prompt, had good communication, and was very good with our dogs. Thank you!

Took great care of my dog and went above and beyond to make sure he had water when my apartment complex had a sudden shut down in the middle of my trip.

Ellie has been great taking care of my dogs! She always updates me on what time she is coming and takes lots of pictures. I trust her to give my dogs the attention they need while I am gone :)

I booked Ellie to walk my two dogs twice a week and so far I'm very happy I found her. She's friendly, communicative, punctual, and very attentive to Oliver and Pippa. I have trust issues when it comes to letting just anyone walk my dogs (one of them is leash reactive towards other dogs and children!) but I don't worry when they're with Ellie. One thing I really loved was that Ellie asked if it was ok to not take pictures during their walks so that she could fully focus on them and not take out her phone — this was music to my ears!! I feel certain my dogs are in good hands with her and I look forward to working with her for the long term.

Ellie took care of my dogs this summer. She stayed at the house and left it neat and tidy. She clearly loved the dogs. And they loved her back. She’s easy to get in touch with and a great communicator. I absolutely trust her in the house and with my dogs.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I highly recommend this sitter! Ellie is incredibly warm, compassionate, and truly connects with dogs. With many years of experience caring for dogs, she is knowledgeable, patient, and attentive. In addition to her experience pet sitting, she has experience walking dogs for a rescue organization which really shows her love and dedication. My dogs have always felt comfortable with Ellie and I completely trust her to make sure they are well cared for.
