Pet Visits With Ellie

03/07/2024

Hi everyone,

I am getting a lot of pet sitting requests and just wanted to clarify I went down a different career path♥️Obviously if I could make ends meet doing this, I would do it forever.

However, if I have visited your pet before, I still consider you a forever client and am happy to continue providing services for your pets.

Some other wonderful pet sitters who I highly recommend are:

Pet Pal Visits With Matthew(and Josie)- they are my personal pet sitters when we leave town.

Jessica Gwyn is my other “go to” and people have nothing but wonderful things to say about her services.

Highly recommend all of the above!♥️

I don’t think I’ve introduced my newest pet, Brutus♥️

He ended up at a county shelter at 1 million years old. Needed a boring home to do old man things like bark at nothing and complain about kids riding dirt bikes after 8pm. Soooo we brought him home🤓

The other reason for this post:

I wanted to mention other wonderful pet sitters in our area🎈Each of us offer slightly different services, and each of us started pet sitting for the same reason: to fill a need!

We all stay pretty busy with pets but have the same goal, and I want to be sure that EVERY pet gets what they need🫶so dogs like my Brutus never have to go without!

This is a serious post after just reading 2 things, locally, about bear attacks. I am cautioning my pet owners about the risk of bears 🐻 right now🐕‍🦺🦮🐕‍🦺

They are not harmless, they will chase you and your dogs, they will harm them. This hits home since yesterday I chose to provide dogs with potty breaks instead of full walks because it just felt like bears were out in that area… true story. Even left a note saying we were too far in the woods for me to feel we could have a safe walk. I’ve NEVER 🤯done that until yesterday!

A recent news article tells the story of a local hiker with a leashless dog, and when a bear found them-the dog lost his life… just a few days ago. Another local story circling at this moment is a possible human attack by a bear.

As someone who had a bear find me in the woods last year while I was minding my own business, without a dog, or even pepper spray, please be SO cautious. Keep your dogs on leashes right now🙏 Fenced areas are also safe. Last year Mrs. Bear taught a friend and me how fast and far we can run. You can’t play dead when they have been spying on how alive you are🏃🏻‍♀️

Tips:
1. Stay close to home (access to safety)
2. Carry bear spray, it’s stronger than pepper spray. Available on Amazon.
3. Do NOT trust your dog NOT to go after a bear
4. Eliminate food sources
5. NEVER feed a bear
6. Just be extra cautious💕🙏I would be ✨distraught✨ if I heard of one of my pet visit dogs having an accident while on a walk with their humans😩
7. Can you tell my biggest fear in the whole world (as of last year) are bears???

This is why I love my job♥️ The bond I get to make with pets and their humans.

I got this picture today of “Scottie” at the lake with his mom and dad🥹I love to see pets living their best lives. And what I love equally are pet parents who KNOW how much I love their dogs/cats.

I love that his humans think enough of me to keep me updated about Scottie’s extra curricular activities! My job feels like a total dream. Thank you to my pet owners for making it a reality💞🐾

I can’t wait to see your dogs happy faces this week! And for your cats to untie my boot laces🤪

LOVE💜

Remember, you are your dog’s biggest advocate ♥️

Not all dogs are comfortable being pet or interacting with everyone they come across. Make sure your dog is having ideal experiences around people and teach them to be neutral when interacting instead of overly excited or fearful.

🟣February Special!🟣

I’ve been blown away by how many pet owners are relieved these services are offered here🎉

Just a reminder that my Pet Visit schedule is QUICKLY filling up and I can’t overbook myself. Providing quality visits to your pets is my number 1 priority! Pet Visits are a first come, first serve basis.

I am hoping to reserve these services to local pet owners as soon as possible before the seasonal folks arrive back to our area. That’s when my schedule will be heavily booked🐾Be sure to reserve your Pet Visits soon🎉

“It’s your pets world, I’m just in it!”

This doesn’t feel like work to me! At ALL!
I want to thank all my new pets for allowing me into their home.

Bad days go away when I see your dog smiling and hear them happy barking when I get there!!! Like if I had known this made me so happy I would have started this YEARS ago.

Thank you for trusting me with your pets. Featuring Tucker who quickly found I had draw strings on my jacket😬

🟣Visit with Bella🎉🟣

On my first visit with Bella I found she’s very food motivated- and strong! So for our second visit, I used her favorite treats to help her learn a new command. She is more than welcome to guide us to the scents her nose wants to follow! It’s super important to let dogs sniff❤️And today she realized we’ll go where her nose wants to go and there is no need to pull us🐶

Sometimes it just takes exploring their mind to figure it all out!

Good news: I get to meet new pets EVERY single day this week❤️❤️❤️ I’m seriously so excited🙊

Not so good news: I have jury duty January 23-27 which put a big block on so many plans for visits next week.

Better news: Attached is my availability for the remainder of this week/weekend!

*cost is per household, not per animal. Message for details, or text 423-946-1899

Most asked question so far:
“Can we arrange a meet and greet between you and our pets?”

Absolutely! Meet and Greets are complimentary and can be arranged with a 24-hour notice🏡

First visit today is with Miss Reesa, this one-eyed short legged little senior girls owner is taking a short trip and requested I provide her with company and TREATS!🐾

Next visit scheduled today isn’t until after lunch so Miss Reesa gets a complimentary extended visit and I’m not honestly sure which one of us is enjoying it more! She’s currently napping 😴 with her paw on my leg.

If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life!

*For the remainder of January, I’m offering
💥$20 Wednesday Visits💥
Great for pet owners who wish their dogs or cats got a little extra attention during the work week. Or for that puppy you got who is trying to destroy your house!
Visits are in 30-minute intervals and includes at least 2 photos and a pet report card!

For sure😬

🐾 Absolutely not! ❤️
