About Ellen
Hello! My name is Ellen, I'm 23 and a university student. I am a massive animal lover, and I had the privelage of growing up with many pets including multiple cats, a collie and a golden retriever (not all at once!). Since leaving home I feel like I have been so deprived of time with furry friends so would absolutely love for the opportunity to get to spend some time with your beloved pets. My primary motivation for pet sitting and dog walking is to get to spend some more time with animals as I really miss it while I'm at univeristy!
I can promise that I would treat your pets like they are my own, as I know it can be stressful leaving your animals when you go away. I've always loved getting little updates about my animals when I'm away so I am happy to send photos and any other updates you might like while you're gone.
While this may be my first time formally working as a pet sitter, I have plenty of experience caring for pets - my own, those of friends and family, and animals of the families that I have nannied for. These experiences have taught me to recognise the distinct, and unique personalities, preferences and needs of each pet.
I'm available for house sits, drop-ins and dog walking. I can be relatively flexible with my schedule, however do have some comittments which cannot be moved around depending on the week. I am happy to do the extra odd job if needed while I am visiting your pet e.g., plant watering, putting bins out, grooming ect.
Dog Walking: I'm happy to walk your dog for up to an hour (maybe more if they are particularly energetic), this could be in your neighbourhood or I am happy to go to the beach/dog park if they are an adverturous pup.
Drop-ins: I'm happy to pop to your house to spend some quality time with your pets - please let me know if you have additional things you might want me to do as I am happy to help out with the little extras too.
Pet sitting: Get in touch and to outline your needs, I am happy to stay over to look after your pets as well as any of the services mentioned above.
Please get in contact if you have any questions, I look forward ot meeting you and your furry friends!
- Ellen :)
