I work from home on Fridays, so from Thursday evening to Monday morning I will be with your fur babies 24/7. However, if you pets are able to be left at home for a few hours, I can look after them during the rest of the working week days too: from Monday - Thursday I leave the house at 8:30am and my boyfriend gets back at 3pm. We also have a ring camera set up so we can keep checking they are okay during the day.

Safety, trust & environment

We live right across the road from a big park where we will take your dog for as many walks as your dog needs. We have a small outdoor balcony/patio type of space which is gated off for toilet breaks. We have a L-shaped sofa with a perfect middle space (between me and my boyfriend) for a dog to sit and cuddle up to us in the evening. Our apartment is open spaced and always kept clean and tidy. A lot of the dogs I grew up with were rescued and had behaviour problems (no recall, would try to run off, chew through things, didn’t like other dogs). Therefore, I am super safety conscious and can promise your dog will be safe and loved with me.

Information Ellie O. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know: 1. How many times your dog needs walking a day 2. How many times does your dog get fed per day 3. Can your dog be taken for long walks or short walks only? 4. Has your dog got good recall? 5. Is your dog good with other dogs? 6. Anything else you think is important that I know.

A typical day

If your dog is capable of big hikes, me and my boyfriend will be happy to take them along with us. If not, that’s absolutely fine and we will tailor the length of our walks to your dogs needs. Your dog will be given a lot of attention with us whether that’s playing with toys or cuddled up on the sofa. Some dogs can be lazy and others very energetic. I’ve had both, and so the typical day with your dog will depend on their nature.

Pet care experience

Hey, I’m Ellie 👋 I’m 25 and a trainee chartered accountant based in Manchester. Both my partner and I come from seriously dog-mad families, and neither of us can imagine life without dogs in it. We’ve recently moved into an apartment together and are waiting until we buy a house before getting dogs of our own. Having grown up in busy homes full of dogs, our place now feels a little empty without one. While we don’t currently have pets, we genuinely love opening our home to yours and giving them a warm, comfortable home-from-home while you’re away. I’ve had a family dog, Lola (a Yorkshire Terrier), since I was 11. She lives with my parents now — but I’m still very much her favourite human. Most evenings are spent studying on the sofa, which usually means plenty of calm company and cuddles, and at weekends my partner and I love getting outdoors for long walks and hikes. I know how important it is to feel reassured when leaving your dog with someone new, so I’m more than happy to send regular photo and video updates while they’re with us, if you’d like. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to get in touch — I’d love to chat 😊🐾

Felt so comfortable leaving Albus my dog with Ellie and her partner, they’re absolutely lovely and kept me updated on how he was doing ☺️

Ellie was super friendly and chatty from the minute I reached out. I had no concerns leaving Samson with her. She sent lots of pictures and updates over the weekend, Samson looked right at home snuggled up anywhere and everywhere he could. Will definitely be reaching out again when we need more doggy care! Thanks Ellie xx

Ellie and her partner were wonderful, warm and caring with Melah. She came back a very happy dog. Communication was great. Ellie was very responsive and posted photos and updates while we were away. Drop off and pick up were very simple. We'd definitely have Melah stay with them again.
