Highlights
Pet care experience
Dogs are family
I’m a stay-at-home mom with a lifelong love for animals and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. My husband and I lead a healthy, active lifestyle—and our dogs are a big part of that! I go on walks with them three times a day, rain or shine, and make sure they stay happy, engaged, and well exercised. Over the years, I’ve had the joy of sharing my life with two miniature Schnauzers and a Doberman Pinscher, all of whom have crossed the rainbow bridge. A few years later, I adopted another Doberman at just two months old and began training her to be a psychiatric service dog. She passed all her service dog tests by the age of six months and has been nothing short of phenomenal—gentle with kids, respectful around small dogs, and always ready to help. Her best friend is our current miniature Schnauzer, and together they bring so much energy and love to our home. Our dogs are well-groomed, well-mannered, and treated like family—and yours will be too. We have a double-fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, and our home is always kept clean, calm, and welcoming. I’m attentive to every detail: I give only bottled water, refreshed throughout the day, and I pride myself on providing a loving, safe environment. Every pup is unique, and I’ll make sure your dog’s individual needs are met so they feel comfortable, cared for, and right at home. We’d love the chance to Meet & Greet your family and provide your pup with their own happy, tail-wagging vacation!

Ratings and reviews
Ellie was absolutely amazing. She accommodated my two doodles last minute, and sat with me the day before for an hour so the dogs could get used to each other. My boys had the best time with her- she even took them to the park the next morning, and sent me tons of pics and videos throughout their stay with her!! Will definitely rebook with her. I have only great things to say about her!!
Ellie was great. Hiro was very happy with her and adjusted within a day of being in her house with Ellie's dogs. Her pups are very sweet and it is a very nice neighborhood. I felt Hiro was in good hands and we were able to enjoy the leg of vacation that Hiro was not permitted to be on. Thank you, Ellie!
Ellie is so amazing! She took such great care of our golden and he didn’t want to leave! She sent many updates and Koda had a great time.
Ellie and her family are our go-to sitter for my dog, Jager. She spoils him so much when he’s there!
Ellie and her family took amazing care of our Mac! He loved hanging out at her spacious home and going on nice walks and sunbathing in her backyard. She sent great update photos and videos and was very quick to respond. We will definitely use her again! 💖🐾
Ellie and her family did great with our dog. She sent lots of photos/videos and accommodated a last minute change.

Schedule
I’m home full-time and go on walks with the dogs three times a day. I wipe their paws and bodies after every walk. I keep my home clean and my dogs well-groomed, because their health and comfort matter to me. I give them only bottled water and refresh it several times a day to make sure they’re always hydrated with clean, fresh water. I care for every dog as if they were my own—with love, attention, and the highest standards. Every pup is happy and content after its own vacation staying with us.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a double-fenced backyard that offers a safe and secure space for dogs to play and explore. Our two friendly dogs are always happy to keep your pup company! However, I completely understand that every dog is different—if your pup prefers solo time or needs a quieter environment, we have plenty of space and flexibility to accommodate that. All dogs are welcome to sleep on the couch and human bed with us! Your dog’s comfort and happiness always come first.

A typical day
Our days are structured, active, and full of love! We start each morning with a neighborhood walk that ends at a nearby park—perfect for stretching our legs, relaxing, and taking care of business. After that, it’s home for breakfast and a cozy rest. In the afternoon, we head out for another walk, followed by playtime or relaxation in our double-fenced backyard. Whether it’s chasing toys, sunbathing, or barking at squirrels and crows, there’s always something to keep the pups entertained until dinnertime. Before bed, we go out for one last quick walk to release any remaining energy and take care of any final needs. Then, everyone settles in for a peaceful night—whether they prefer a comfy bed or a crate, we make sure each pup has the space where they feel most at ease.
