Highlights
Pet care experience
Hi there!
I've taken care of many animals since I was around 10 if not younger. I obtained my Bachelor’s of Science in Animal Ecology at Iowa State University May of 2025. I have worked at three different zoos learning about animal welfare. In March I started working at the Naples Zoo in Florida.
Cat care experience
Ellie also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a house that has plenty of space for any pets. I have a cat named Rooster that I would like to introduce to more pets if you're looking for an overnight visit.
Ratings and reviews
Ellie was phenomenal! We are new to Rover and were worried about leaving our dogs with a new person, but she was very communicative and sent lots of updates which put our minds at ease. The dogs seemed to enjoy her and her energy. We would definitely recommend Ellie and work with her again!
Ellie has worked with animals for over 10 years. They are receptive to her and show immediate trust. With her job skills from working at different zoos, she has worked with a variety of animals with their care, nutrition, exercise, and habitat. She would be an excellent addition to the field.
I have used Ellie as a pet sitter for a while now and she has been great. My dog loves loves her and is always so excited when she comes and takes care of him. She is very responsible, is always very clean, and is very personable. I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting opportunities.
Ellie is one of the biggest animal lovers in the world. She loves my pup Hallie and takes great care of her when we need her to. From snuggling, to walks, fo playing, Ellie makes sure Hallie is tired at the end of the day

Schedule
I am looking at getting more experience working and watching animals. I am extremely available and have a very flexible schedule. I do have school but not for long periods, this is helpful when it comes to watching pets.
