House Sitting • Jul 09, 2026

Esmeralda was amazing! She was flexible, accommodating, and wonderful to work with. She provided great updates throughout and was always prompt with her responses. She also left the house clean and organized, which we really appreciated. We would absolutely love to have her sit for us again!

Esmeralda is the best! Treated my pup with love and care. She is next level organized. She contacted me just the right amount. I never wondered how things were going, while at the same time I never felt pestered. I would have given her 6 stars if they let me. I can't recommend her enough.

Esmeralda took great care of our two border collies. She sent pictures of them every now and then when we were traveling which is really nice. She also bath them and washed their beds before we picked them up. I would highly recommend her and will definitely come back in the future!

She was amazing! 🌟 She kept me updated with lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was super sweet with our pup, even gave him a little pool to cool off in the hot weather . And the best part,she returned him all clean and fresh from a bath! Couldn’t ask for a better sitter, highly recommend!

Schedule

I do currently have a 8-5 job throughout the week so I would prefer if drop offs/pick ups were between 7am-7:30am or after 4:30pm and on. I love taking care of dogs that I will do it outside of my employment which also entails taking care of dogs since I work in a boarding facility.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets like if they were my own pets. Also following directions that the owner may have, and giving updates whether it’s a message or a photo to give the owner peace of mind while they are away.

Pets

A typical day

I currently have a yard so depending on the season and the personality of the pup, I have a small doggy pool for the dogs that like to get wet, with drying after so hotspots don’t occur. We can play fetch if they like to retrieve things. I also have doggy puzzles for those who prefer the mental stimulation. And honestly lots of snuggle time for the ones who want the one on one instead. I have 2 dogs who are very well socialized so we can do a doggy day care type of thing as well with supervision at all times for the dogs who prefer buddies to hang with.

If your pup requires medication, let me know ahead of time with specific instructions. I have pilled dogs who need their medication but refuse to eat it, so if that’s necessary I have experience. If your dog is well mannered I would also be able to bathe and cut your dogs nails. I would just need to know ahead of time.
