Esmirna is kind, gentle and calming. She helped me feel reassured and secure that my three pets (2 dogs and a cat) would be well cared for and they were. We came home to three very relaxed pets and a home in perfect condition. She sent a daily update w photos and followed a not so easy routine that included multiple pet meds. She was attentive to every detail and very thorough as well as professional. We greatly appreciate her effort, care and consideration. She made things easy and void of any complications!

Esmirna took great care of my dog while I was on vacation for 8 days. Before agreeing to watch Jax, she asked questions about Jax’s personality, eating/sleeping habits, and medical needs which helped put me at ease with leaving him while I was away. Jax came back happy and really seemed to enjoy his time with Esmirna! Thank you again!

Esmirna took such wonderful care of our pugs! She has a very calm and soothing presence, which especially helped with our anxiety prone pug. We could tell that Esmirna genuinely enjoyed caring for them. And we could see that our boys loved staying with her via the daily updates with photos! We highly recommend Esmirna!

Esmirna took such good care of my boy! She kept me updated and let me know how he was doing. This was the first time I left Jack with someone and I will definitely continue to book with Esmirna again :)

Schedule

I work from home Monday through Friday. Your pet would be with me at home throughout the day, and as I take frequent breaks, I can take them out to walk when needed in general when they are with me, they would be walked twice a day.

Where your pet will stay

Home characteristics

Lives in a house
Has an unfenced yard
Non-smoking household
Has no pets
No children present
Dogs allowed on bed
Dogs allowed on furniture
Potty breaks every 2-4 hours

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs will be inside the house. I always make sure that my home is very clean and any potential hazards to the pets are removed. Safety is my first priority when it comes to taking care of your pet.

A typical day

If the dog is physically capable, I like going on a mile long walk in the morning. For the rest of the day, we go on 10-15 minute walks every two hours. We will play through the day, either with my toys or the toys they bring.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat

I usually don’t care for more than one family at a time, but there may be an overlap of a day or two. Because of that, I will not accept dogs that don’t get along well with other dogs.
