Pet care experience

friendly and trustworthy pet-sitter

I currently have a three-year-old golden retriever named Ollie that I raised from a puppy. In the past, I have even raised farm animals, including cats, dogs, horses, pigs, and chickens! Fun fact: I used to work as an animal handler at a zoo, taking care of animals like camels, giraffes, zebras, and more :)

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in an apartment, so I prefer to take care of pets in their own home. I am happy to accommodate your pets needs, including feeding schedule, potty breaks, and any other preferences to make them feel comfortable in your absence.

Ellie was so great to my cats. I really appreciated her attention to detail and all the updates and photos. I would definitely entrust your pets with her!

Ellie is so sweet! She was attentive to our kitty and parrot while we were away. Every day she shared photos and updates, even cleaning after our kitty’s hairballs and letting us know. Her care made us feel confident our pets were safe and cared for. I’d highly recommend booking with Ellie and we hope she’ll be available for our next time away. 💕

Ellie cared for our pup with great attention to detail. She followed all our directions and bonded well with our dog. She communicated in a timely manner and asked follow up questions when needed. Our pup was well taken care of and Ellie always shared pictures of their time together. Thank you Ellie!
