Highlights
Pet care experience
Snuggles,Walks,&Wagging Tails!
I do work in the office but am able to come home on lunch for an hour to walk & play. I only care for one pet family at a time so don’t worry about anxious dogs mixing. All my day care & boarding services include walks - no extra cost! Growing up with dogs, I’ve developed an intuitive understanding of their needs. From playful pups to senior dogs, I’ve cared for them all! I have dealt with medication for heart diseases and epilepsy and understand the importance of routine and timing for medication. I grew up with chihuahuas and a shitzu. I understand the need to adapt to different behaviours and anxieties. Most importantly I understand the need for dogs to feel loved and involved whilst their pet parents are away. I understand that communication is key when trusting someone to care for your dog and I will go above and beyond to keep you updated on your dogs day. Trust is the most important thing! I love all different breeds of dogs. I feel like I have a great understanding of their different types of needs depending on breed. I understand toy breeds unique needs, combining vigilance for their safety with a gentle approach to their emotional well-being. I understand that they may not need as much strenuous exercise as larger breeds, but they thrive on companionship and consistent routines, often being content with a short walk and plenty of lap time. Given their small bladders, I understand they may require more frequent potty breaks than larger dogs. I am extra cautious during walks, using appropriate safety equipment like a secure harness to prevent accidents, and being aware of other, potentially larger, animals that could scare them or put them in danger.

Ratings and reviews
Would recommend, tried an overnight stay, didn't work out due my dogs anxiety but Ellie was great and keep me up to date with his progress. Will try again soon.
Ellie and Liam are great! Communication is brilliant and they take such good care of our dog, we definitely recommend them. Gremlin is a little quirky and takes a bit to warm up but they made him feel so comfortable the first time they had him, that he was so excited to go back again when we dropped him off! Thanks again :) xx
I would 1000% recommend anyone to choose Ellie to look after their dogs. She’s an absolute angel and you can really tell she loves looking after them, both Ellie and Liam took amazing care of my dog and treated her like their own, we also received regular updates on how she was doing as well as picture and videos which was really sweet. We couldn’t have asked for more and will definitely use her again and again 🫶🏼🐶
If I could give Ellie more stars I would! We’ve had a bad experience in the past with a dog sitter that meant we were anxious pup parents but Ellie has been absolutely fantastic. She gave us loads of updates and we could tell Eddie was super comfortable with her, he was treated like a prince! We couldn’t recommend her more.
Ellie was an absolute angel. Leaving my precious Slinky while I travelled to Germany was such a big step for me, as I’d never left her with anyone outside of family before. Ellie completely put my mind at ease with regular updates, photos, and videos, and I could see how happy and loved Slinky was. When I picked her up, she didn’t even want to leave, which says everything. Knowing my baby was safe and adored meant the world to me, and I wouldn’t hesitate to trust Ellie again! 🐾💕
Brilliant as always our two dogs love staying here. X

Schedule
I am able to accept boarding at my own home with my partner at the weekends and also midweek as long as you are happy for me to work in the office and come home on my lunch hour (I work 5 mins away) to let your dog out for walk and spend time with them (left 4 hours at a time). I can walk your dogs in the morning before work and in an evening too. We have no pets so your doggies have our full attention.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a secure garden and allow any dogs to roam all of the house. We are closed to parks and fields and so there is plenty of outdoor space for them to enjoy! I only board one pet family at a time & am happy to adjust to yours dogs needs. I can follow any crate training too.
A typical day
As I work in the office, weekdays can be more limited as I will only be able to come home at lunch time for an hour. I will come home, take them for a walk and play with them but then I will go back to work. However, I have the full evening at home. If you leave them yourselves in the week, I am sure there is no issues there. Weekends they will have my 100% attention. I love to go on walks and offer endless amounts of cuddles and play. However, if your dog wants to chill - I will leave them to have a snooze! I follow your routine to the dot.
