Devoted to Your Dog's Well-Being
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Estelle Cimino and I am an avid dog and animal lover and adore spending time with all kinds of dogs. I have owned dogs for over 20 years. All of my dogs were raised from puppies and lived to ripe old ages beyond the average for their breed and size. I have been pet sitting for 7 years, because I love dog energy, am passionate about dogs, and I know how hard it is to travel and enjoy your time away when you're concerned about who will take good care of your best friend. My goal is to relieve any stress and anxiety your pet may have when your pup is away from you. I will take excellent care of your dog ensuring he/she feels loved and has a best friend by her/his side. I will also make sure your home is safe and secure and well-cared for bringing in mail, watering plants and doing light housekeeping activities. I will pamper your dog and no matter what breed or age he/she will get lots of love, 1-1 attention, walks, playtime, and rest. As a dog owner and sitter of dogs at all ages I have plenty of experience with puppies to seniors. I am comfortable giving medications. Whatever your pup is used to at home is how I will care for them. I want to understand your pet’s preferences and routines so we can maintain what is most comfortable for all. I work from home most days so your dog will not be alone for extended periods. Many dogs sleep near me during the workday and get lots of love and attention when I take breaks. Ideally your dog would be house broken and has minimal separation anxiety/barking. Obviously, we would take extra care for puppies and I can assist with training. If you desire, I can send you brief daily updates on how your pet is doing. Contact me for more information and to set up a meet and greet. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover since I was a child and my first dog was a white German Shepherd. Since then I have owned 3 dogs, 2 Akitas and 1 Norwegian Elkhound. I trained all of my dogs when they were puppies and was devoted to their well-being throughout their long lives. My experience administering medication I have no problem administering medication and have done so with my own dogs as well as dogs that I have cared for.
Reviews
Estelle is amazing! Left my baby girl with her for the weekend and she was even calmer and happier than when I left her. Can't wait for our next stay with her!
I highly recommend Estelle for pet care. She was very attentive to details of care of my little dog and I felt very confident and comfortable with her knowledge and love of animals. I will definitely be a return client!
Estelle has a great home for dog sitting. Great location for nice walks or hiking. Our Lucy sure did look like she had a good time.
Estelle was great with my dog Callie. She sent updates with pictures everyday. She took Callie on a hike up to Jacks Peak. I highly recommend her for your fur babies. You can tell she really loves animals.

A typical day
Walks I am happy to take 1 or more walks a day. Depending on how well your dog travels in the car I am open to visiting and taking walks at Asilomar, Lake El Estero, on the beach, walking path along the ocean, and parks like Rip Van Winkle, Mission Trails, Jack's Peak, Garland Park and other fun places. Time I'll spend with your dog I work from home most days so will be with your pet throughout the day. I take breaks to spend time with your dog to play, walk, pet and brush him/her. Some dogs like to sleep right next to me, others somewhere in the house or outside dozing in the sun or shade.
