Pet care experience

Insured, WFH, pet lover 🖤

Hi, I’m Ellie! I’m a fully remote graphic designer who loves animals. I live with my family, our three dogs, and a cat, so I’m very used to busy, pet-filled homes. My cocker spaniel, Honey, is my soul dog - she’s quite anxious, which has taught me how to care for nervous or reactive pets with patience and understanding. I’ve looked after a range of dogs and cats for family and friends over the years, from excitable puppies to shy rescues. I always take the time to understand each pet’s personality and routine so they feel safe and cared for while their owners are away.

Safety, trust & environment

My own home is full of life with three dogs and a cat, so I don’t offer boarding or daycare here. When I’m caring for your pets, I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and make sure their environment stays calm and safe. I take extra care with anxious or reactive pets, keeping to their usual routines and avoiding anything that might stress them out.

Ellie Mae looked after our German Shepherd dog Charlie while we were out for the evening. Ellie is really friendly and professional, Charlie warmed to her straight away ❤️. We had great communication throughout and were sent updates and photos throughout the evening. We will definitely be booking Ellie again and would recommend her.

We love having Ellie look after our two girls, she is so friendly and calming and the girls settled so quickly. Ellie is amazing and has looked after them a few times now and we wouldn't want to go anywhere else! Thank you Ellie, love Ruby & Daisy!!!

Ellie is so lovely, she has lots of experience with different dog breeds and personalities and was really understanding with ours. She took time to come and meet him twice before she looked after him which was really reassuring for us. Will definitely be booking again! Thanks Ellie :)

Ellie was absolutely fantastic, we booked her at short notice for a longer house sit, after being let down by a family member. Our dog is extremely nervous and Ellie came to visit beforehand to introduce herself to him and everyone else. We have a multiple animal household including an 3 legged cat, and she took it all on perfectly. Our animals have multiple dietary requirements and she also managed this easily. She did a house sit for 11 days and kept us up to date throughout with pictures and messages. We’ve returned home to very happy healthy animals and a wonderfully clean house. Absolutely 100/10 and I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you so much Ellie

Schedule

Because I work remotely, I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available for house sitting and drop-in visits any day of the week. I can do mornings, evenings, or overnight stays depending on what your pet needs. At the moment I'm unable to commit to routinely walks due to physiotherapy, however I can do the odd one here and there - we can just discuss first! If my calendar shows I’m unavailable, please message me anyway - I can usually make something work!

Ellie Mae can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I really value honesty when it comes to your pet’s needs. Please let me know: • If your pet is anxious, reactive, or has any triggers • Their usual feeding and walking schedule • How they are around other animals or people • Any medication or special care instructions The more I know, the better I can make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Also, if there are any allergies in the household let me know!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
