Tails, treats & twenty three

I’m 23 years old and currently living at home, where I’m lucky to be surrounded by family—and my adorable dog, Max my 13-year-old Shih Tzu is the calm, gentle presence in the house. He’s has such a sweet, wise nature. Growing up with max has taught me a lot about patience, responsibility, and finding joy in the little things. Whether we’re out on a walk, playing, or relaxing at home, spending time with them keeps life grounded and fulfilling. It’s a simple rhythm, but one that’s full of love, connection, and meaning.

Ellie was absolutely amazing with Frank. From the start she was so trustworthy, kind and reliable, which made me feel totally comfortable leaving him in her care. She looked after him so well and it was obvious he really loved her. I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!

Thank you for looking after Chorizo! Ellie was great as he’s a very anxious dog. Couldn’t not recommend more.

Ellie was absolutely fantastic looking after our nervy whippet while we were away for a couple of nights! Worked around our odd flight timings and Taco was super happy in her care ❤️❤️❤️

I recently had the pleasure of having Ellie look after my Bichon, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, she was reliable, and clearly experienced with dogs — especially small breeds like mine. My Bichon can be a bit particular, but she was instantly comfortable with Bentley which says a lot. Throughout the time she was minding him, I received regular updates, photos, and little notes that really put my mind at ease. It was clear she wasn’t just “watching” my dog — she genuinely cared for him and treated him like her own. When I returned, my dog was happy, calm, and clearly well looked after. I highly recommend Ellie to anyone looking for a kind, responsible, and trustworthy pet sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!

I couldn’t be more grateful to have found Ellie to take care of my 8-year-old pug, Olly, for the week. From the moment we met, she was kind, professional, and clearly experienced with dogs – especially seniors like Olly, who can be a bit particular in his old age! Throughout the week, Ellie kept me updated with messages and adorable photos, which really helped me feel at ease while I was away. She took amazing care of Olly, making sure he stuck to his routine, got his meds on time, and had plenty of snuggles and short strolls (his favorite things). When I came home, Olly was happy, relaxed, and clearly very well looked after. It’s such a relief knowing I have someone I can trust with my fur baby, and I’ll absolutely be reaching out to Ellie again in the future. Thank you, Ellie, for treating Olly like one of your own!

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, pets are treated like part of the family. I don’t use crate training—instead, they’re free to roam around the house and make themselves comfortable. I also have a safe, fenced back garden where they can enjoy fresh air, playtime, and exercise under supervision. Whether in my home or a pet owner’s home, I make sure their routine is kept as close to normal as possible—meals, walks, playtime, and cuddles—so they feel secure, happy, and loved while you’re away.

Pets

A typical day

I love keeping dogs active, happy, and engaged! Depending on each pup’s personality and energy level, I’ll plan activities they truly enjoy. For playful and energetic dogs, that could mean fun walks, games of fetch, tug-of-war, or even exploring new trails and parks. For pups who love to sniff and think, I enjoy setting up scent games and hide-and-seek with treats or toys. And of course, there’s always plenty of cuddle time, belly rubs, and gentle play for those who prefer a more relaxed pace.
