About Estelle R.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
As my testimonials show, I have a proven track record for being a conscientious and capable petsitter. I'm neat, detail oriented and will treat your home and pet with respect, just as if they were my own. Following your instructions closely, sending updates as requested and keeping your beloved pets content and well cared for will be my top priorities.
Information Estelle R. would like to know about your pet
To make sure we're a good match and I'm prepared to provide the best possible care, I would like to know about any particular quirks your pet has. For instance, is he/she an escape artist? Does he/she generally get along with other dogs? How many treats (if any) would you like me to give if I'm stopping in? Things of that nature, plus any other information you feel I should know.
A typical day
Where will we venture to on walks? I'll leave that up to the pup(s) to decide! I'm more than willing to go to a specific spot near your house if they have a favorite. Otherwise, we'll just walk around the neighborhood and stop by a green space along the way.

Pet care experience
I am a friendly and trustworthy dog and cat lover who is eager to help out my neighbors in the Fishtown/East Kensington area with a full range of petsitting needs. -Walks- There's a good chance you've seen me strolling, jogging or biking around the Greater Fishtown area. I love staying active, especially when cute dogs are involved. To me, having a pup along for a neighborhood jaunt makes it all the more enjoyable! For social butterflies, a few of my favorite nearby dog-friendly destinations include Pops Dog Park, the Palmer Doggie Depot, Palmer Park and Penn Treaty Park. I also have plenty of experience walking shy and less social dogs, so no worries if yours prefers to do their own thing. Rain, wind, snow or sun, I’m happy to brave all conditions to make sure your pup gets the exercise they need (or to build in some extra indoor play time). -In-Home Care- Whether for a drop-in visit while you’re at work or an overnight stay while you’re out of town, you can count on me to provide exceptional care for your furry family members. Since I was a kid, I've always loved animals. Growing up, my family's apricot miniature poodle named Simon was one of my best and truest friends. I've been dogsitting for friends and family since my teenage years. I have experience taking care of pups of many different breeds, sizes, personalities and ages, from energetic youngsters to wise and easygoing seniors who may require some extra TLC. Nowadays, I'm proud to be the go-to pet sitter for my friends who live in the neighborhood. A few of my repeat clients include Bear the Lhasapoo and Space Baby the cat. From fetch to feeding to head scratches and belly rubs, I live vicariously and love every second I get to spend with these special pets. If you're looking for someone attentive to love on, entertain or tire out your pet while you’re away, I’d love to chat about the possibility of adding your furry companion to my rotation!
Reviews

Estelle is so friendly and professional, so lucky to have her in the neighborhood

Estelle has been great walking my quirky, high energy dog.


Estelle was absolutely fantastic. She communicated well, sent pictures and gave daily updates. My house was spotless, and the animals were happy and well taken of. I would absolutely recommend and would love to have her back.

Estelle was a phenomenal sitter. Took great care of my boy Oliver. Will definitely be booking again!
