I work from home M-F, so I am able to step away from my work to tend to your pets needs whether that's taking them out for a walk, out to pee/poop, feed them, play and take any medication of theirs (if any).

Safety, trust & environment

I will take care of your pets as I take care of mine. I will ensure they are always in my sight and not be distracted on my phone as much. One thing about me is that I like to be present and not scroll away on my phone as much while on the job. I am always alert to hear if any pets are not chewing on things they're not supposed to in case of a choking hazard. In the past with foster pets, I've had to clear airways for them when they were choking, so I'm not afraid to stick my hand in their mouths to remove the object/food. I will ensure gates and doors are locked to prevent runaways.

Information Esmeralda L. would like to know about your pet

If you have specific care instructions for your pets, I can accommodate! I’m very good with instructions and timing, so you will not need to worry if your pet is being taken care of. I’m happy to do FaceTime calls, videos and photos throughout the time you are gone to reassure your pet is safe. I’m also very cautious with runners, so I am very aware and detail oriented.

A typical day

We start the day early every day, feed my pets homemade food and take everyone out for potty. I work from home so I am able to play with my pets throughout the day and cuddle during meetings. I take them out for a walk after work, when it’s cooler in the evening and go to bed early.

Pets

I care for any type of pets!

Pet care experience

I've had pets my entire life! I currently have dogs, cats, birds, and turtles. I foster homeless and lost pets that I find out in the streets, including hawks lol. I am very respectful with senior and disabled dogs. I am happy to give your pets medicine (if any), make homemade dog food if that's what you do, be alert when taking smaller dogs outside to pee, make sure pets don't sneak outside and ensure gates are locked to prevent run-aways. I love my pets and I will ensure to take care of your pets as I would with mine. I will make them feel comfortable, safe, loved while you are away, so don't worry! I will be happy to also send pictures and videos and hop on facetime, so you can chat with your babies!

If you're looking for a sitter who is reliable and sweet, Esmeralda is the perfect choice. She is patient and sweet to our rescue Papi, who is terrified of strangers.
