About Ellie

Hello!

I'm a 33yr-old animal lover who would love to care for your pets when you're not able to. You can rely on me to show up on time, keep in contact, and make the effort to put your pets at ease to maintain normality without their parent(s). 

I work full-time, generally three days in the office between approx 8-16:30, so I can't always be at home with pets.

I've walked many dogs, and stayed with both dogs and cats as a Pawshaker in the Netherlands for a year. Since I was 11 years old, I have walked (other people's) dogs, including as a volunteer at the RSPCA in Wellington, so I'm used to handling all sorts of personalities and behavioural issues. While I'm not in a position to own a pet myself right now, I would love to look after yours as though they're my own!

Your pets will be cared for with diligence and gentle affection, and I'll perservere to build a trusting and fun relationship with them through games and close contact (pets on the bed is fine with me!).

I know it can be hard leaving your pets with a stranger, so I would be happy to meet with you before making any commitments.

Ellie took wonderful care of our dogs Stevie and Buster. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a thoughtful house sitter.

Ellie did a wonderful job looking after our border collie for two nights. Communication was very clear and easy. She provided us updates over the weekend and asked questions whenever needed. Ellie was responsible, calm and supportive of our dog, who has some anxiety issues. She took her on plenty of walks and provided good distractions. Ellie left the house neat and tidy. She made our time away stress free, we would definitely ask her to house sit for us again.
