About: Hi there! My name is Ellie, and I’m a passionate animal lover with over a decade of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have pups of my own, so I know how much trust it takes to let someone else care for your furry family member — and I treat every pet I meet with the same love, attention, and respect I give my own. Whether your dog needs a fun walk to burn off energy, a drop-in to check on meals and snuggles, or full-on overnight care, I’ve got you covered. I’m reliable, patient, and fully committed to making sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby and give them the care they deserve! I currently work full-time during the day, but pet care is truly a passion of mine and a fulfilling part of my daily routine. I’m available for check-ins and walks in the early mornings before work and in the evenings after I get home. In some cases, I’m also able to swing by during my lunch break for a quick visit, depending on location and timing. I also offer overnight stays, which allows me to spend quality, uninterrupted time with your pet — perfect for dogs who need extra comfort or company while you’re away. While my weekday daytime availability is limited, I’m dependable, communicative, and always make sure your pet gets the attention and care they deserve when I’m with them! When your pet is in my care, their well-being is my top priority. I understand that every animal has their own unique needs, routines, and personalities — and I take the time to get to know them so I can provide care that makes them feel safe, seen, and loved. You can trust that I’ll treat your pet like one of my own, with patience, affection, and respect. I’m mindful, responsible, and always keep safety at the forefront — whether that’s making sure harnesses are secure, sticking to feeding instructions, or giving them their favorite toy at just the right moment. I believe animals know when someone truly cares for them — and I make it my mission to create a peaceful, loving environment where your pet can feel completely at ease while you’re away.

Rachele is an excellent cat sitter. She responds immediately to each cat’s needs and then some. If you leave instructions, Rachele will do exactly as you ask. Her daily communication is very good and always has great pics. My cats were very safe, well fed, and happy with Rachele’s care.
I'm very thankful for Katie, she was able to watch our 18 year old senior kitty on two occasions while we were away. She kept us updated through the app and sent pics of him after each visit. She was also able to give him his insulin and other medication, which was amazing and helped put us at ease. Overall, she was great and I would highly recommend her!
