Availability
As a student, I find that I have plenty of free time to visit your pets whenever needed! Athens is incredibly walkable (plus I drive) so getting around takes very little time at all and I can be there quick!

About Ellie M.

Safety, trust & environment
Working in shelters and rehabilitation centers for various animals, I know that each pet needs an individual care experience. Some may need to be walked more frequently or less, some may not like to be around people, some may need medications at specific times, or some may need extra love. My goal is to make your pet and you comfortable with leaving them to me.
Information Ellie M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or preferences before I meet them! I want to make sure I am taking care of your pet the best to my ability.
A typical day
I love keeping pets happy, active, and engaged! Depending on your pet's personality and preferences, we'll enjoy activities like walks, hikes, playing fetch, tug-of-war, puzzle toys, training practice with positive reinforcement, and plenty of playtime. For cats, I enjoy interactive wand toys, laser play (finished with a toy they can "catch"), treat puzzles, and lots of cuddle time if they enjoy affection. I'm also happy to spend quiet time with pets who prefer relaxing, whether that's brushing, belly rubs, or just keeping them company. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and has fun while you're away.

Pet care experience
Hi! I'm a college student and experienced pet sitter with a passion for caring for animals of all kinds. Before becoming a pet sitter, I worked in wildlife rehabilitation, where I gained hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals and learned how to recognize their individual needs and behaviors. I'm comfortable caring for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, small mammals, and other pets, and I'm happy to follow any special routines, medications, or care instructions to keep them happy and healthy. Whether you need someone to stop by for visits, stay overnight, or care for your home while you're away, you can count on me to be dependable, attentive, and respectful. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I'll treat them like they're my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered or scaly!) family members!
Reviews
Ellie walks my 2 chihuahuas frequently and we have never had a problem with her. Her communication is great and she always keeps us updated on what our dogs are up to. We also have a ball python and she has done drop in visits for her, which is great bc not a lot of people want to take care of a snake. Five stars.
Ellie walked my sweet pittie every morning and evening during last summer. she sent me hourly updates on my pupper and was very attentative to his needs since he required special feeding instructions and a medication. She is a great dog sitter and walker and i give her 5 stars !!
ellie watched my 2 cats for a weekend whilst i was away for a conference and my cats were very well taken care of. ellie sent me photos of them being fed and played with and she even brought them a few new toys which was very nice of her to do. i 10/10 recommend her. she knows what to do with animals and has a kind heart .
Ellie is an amazing caretaker! She has watched my dog, cats, and farm animals on a few occasions and always leaves everything better than she found it. She has a heart of gold and my animals and I love her.
