Always up for an adventure!
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name's Estella, and I'd love to help you with walking or checking in on your furry friend(s). I'm a college student with lots of free time, and an abundance of love for all kinds of dogs and cats. I have years of experience with my own high-energy best bud, so I understand the importance of a good walk-and the work that goes in to making sure a dog or cat is well fed, hydrated, exercised, and happy. I take care to be attentive, both to a dog's behavior/needs and our surroundings. (That means no walking and texting! I also prefer solo walks, so that I can give your pup my undivided attention. If you have multiple dogs, this may change once I get to know each of them!) Doing my job right is extremely important to me, so please feel free to give specific instructions! They are greatly appreciated. I'm looking forward to spending time with your pet! [A Note on Cameras and Home Surveillance Systems: I ask that you please disclose the presence of cameras in your home prior to my arrival for a booking. Cameras are a great resource, and I’m perfectly fine with them being present in a home where I am working. However, I would rather not discover that I am being recorded when I was not informed that I would be beforehand. I hope this is understandable.]
Reviews
Estella was super communicative and sent several photos of my dog’s walk. I would definitely recommend her to anyone.
Estella was wonderful with my senior dog!
Estella is awesome! She was very flexible and listened to our worries. Will book with her again.
Estella was communicative and kept our pups happy. Also, she left us a small portrait of our dogs, which we love!

I’m here for whatever your pets need! Specific instructions are greatly appreciated. My goal is to provide you with peace of mind, and your pets with comfort, exercise, and companionship while you’re away.
Information Estella D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know what your pet needs! I have plenty of experience with pets who need special attention (whether that’s giving them their medicine at a certain time, or just making sure they don’t chew/scratch everything they can reach). Just let me know!
A typical day
Every pet is unique! I’m happy to play with an energetic puppy or chill with a less active older dog. (Also applies to cats, of course.) However many walks are needed, I’ll provide!

Availability
I’m currently a student at a four-year university, so my summers are fairly open, but my schedule will be more complex between October and early June. I have classes every weekday, but midday and evenings are generally open. Feel free to shoot me a request to see if I can make our schedules work together!
