Information Ethel M. would like to know about your pet

I usually like to know eating/potty schedules. What toys they like. Any gestures to avoid as well as behavioral tendencies. Temperament tendencies for walking and energy levels.

A typical day

I like to take dog(s) to the park or walk on a trail close by. If a fenced in yard, have them run around if it’s nice weather. Frequent potty and water breaks. Can’t forget the snacks!

Pet care experience

I was a dog mom for 15 years. As a puppy, I took Camille to puppy school; trained her to sit, stay, leave it, and potty training as well as teaching her Spanish. I have since dog sat in my home and in my friends homes a lot. All ages, sizes and energy levels, from Chihuahua/Yorkshire Terriers to Pit bull mix. I have sat for a family of 3 dogs of different temperaments as well. I like to talk to them and make them feel comfortable especially when they feel anxious about being without their parents. Walking in the neighborhood or at the Chattahoochee Trails are always fun. My car is dog friendly. Crate training is always a plus. And of course lots of love and healthy treats.

Ethel is amazing! She is great at communicating and providing frequent updates and pictures. She took excellent care of Georgia and left my apartment very clean and tidy. Can’t recommend her enough!

Ethel was absolutely incredible taking care of our pups (for the first time) while we were gone for 8 days for our wedding! She sent lots of pictures and videos, followed our instructions to a T! Will definitely be booking in the future.

Ethel was amazing! My husband and I traveled out of the country for 9 nights (which turned into 10 thanks to a missed flight) and any nerves I had about leaving our three dogs were quickly dashed by Ethel's photos and updates. We left our three large female dogs in her care and joked they were on a better vacation than we were. Ethel stayed in our house and gave our girls tons of attention and love. She sent us photos and videos multiple times a day, every day. We never wondered what they were up to. It was so reassuring. Ethel truly loves dogs. Her little nicknames for ours, the photos of them passed out next to her with their tongues out totally comfortable... it was clear they were in great hands. We are so glad to have met Ethel. We cannot recommend her enough and will definitely be using her again.
