Esther is my friend now. We keep in touch still. She is reliable. I've seen her take care of animals in Alameda. I know she loves them and pays close attention to their needs. You can always count on Esther. I could and did! Esther came to me originally as a "Workaway" guest, where room and board is exchanged for a place to stay. I got the better end of the bargain. Here is the feedback I wrote at the time that she moved to Alameda: Left by host () for Workawayer (Esther) Esther was and is the most awesome and sweetest person. I feel incredibly lucky to have had her first for three weeks and then again for two more. She was so much fun! Always a smile on her face. She came at a time when I needed someone to cook for me and several other Workawayers. There was a lot of work going on on the house. It was a luxury to have wonderful meals cooked for all of us, all of the time. Little did we know of her extensive experience and skills in the kitchen. Turns out we had a Gourmet Chef on our hands! Everything that she cooked and baked was out-of-this-world delicious and looked beautiful. Her energy was unbounded. Without being formally asked, she even kept the house clean and helped with laundry. She was a “good citizen” and she will be missed. Everyone loved her. If you can host Esther, you will be in for a treat!

Ester is a phenomenal person. The time she spent in my home with my 2 6-month old Jack Russell Terriers was a pleasant experience for me and them. I could instantly tell that Ester was a lover of animals and the pups warmed up to her quicker than they normally warm up to other people. I would trust Ester to take care of any of my pups needs while I am away without hesitation and even more importantly without any worry.
