I grew up with a dog and 10 cats!

Pet care experience

I am an excellent carer for dogs and cats. I absolutely adore animals having grown up with ten cats and a dog. My sister is also a zoologist and has taught me about animal behavior. I have been walking dogs for four years and taking care of animals for over ten years. I am very punctual and strict about being on time. I don't believe there is any job too small when it comes to caring for animals. In my spare time I have been looking into working or volunteering at an animal shelter. That's how much I love dogs and all animals! I absolutely would be honored and would love to care for your pet! Thank you for your time! Be well and take care!

Ellisa was so great with my cat! He's a nervous Nelly and was scared to meet Ellisa at first, but she took her time and even brought some treats to coax him out and gain his trust. Ellisa was wonderful, and I highly recommend her!

There are many things that can be said about how Ellisa cares for not only her own pets, but others as well. Besides clearly being an animal lover, Ellisa is patient and kind with other's pets. I have two pitbulls and most people are quick to write them off and be scared. Ellisa on the other hand took her time to get to know them and what they like and do not like. She respects their boundaries and understands that not every pet is the same. She cares enough to give each the time and attention they need. My boy Zorro is not always the best with people, but since Ellisa was willing to learn with him and not push him, he is more comfortable with her. They look forward to seeing her! I would recommend Ellisa to any pet owner whether they have 4 legs or fins.

Ellisa has taken care of my dog Sprout for 4+ years. She is incredible considerate and communicative when caring for my dog. She will give me regular updates even without me asking, which as an overprotective pet mom is appreciated! Your pet is in great hands with Ellisa!

I've known Ellisa for close to 30 years. She is a super attentive, caring mother to her own 2 cats, one of which is a senior. She also has extensive experience with dogs. I have seen Ellisa walk many dogs as a Dog Walker. She is patient, focused on the dog's needs, and really has fun with the animals. Her love of dogs is very evident in the level of care she provides. I can personally vouch for this because I am a dog mom myself and know what qualities to look for in a walker.

Information Ellisa K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog is a puller! I want to make sure I can safely handle your pup. I feel more comfortable knowing how strong your dog is before our walk.

A typical day

I love playtime and can play fetch for hours. I love tug of war the most. I especially love walking through parks or along the river.
