She shares more than seven million followers with her fellow dog, Emma, on TikTok alone.

And their owners, Kevin and Katie Bubolz, make every effort to keep their fans happy, which is why the young parents have been traveling the world with their two goldens for years.

This has resulted in countless funny videos starring the golden duo, with one of the most popular showing Ellie and Emma jumping on Kevin's back to snap and selfie with him.
