Just a pet-loving college student.

Pet care experience

There was never a time in my household where we had fewer than 3 pets, and at other times we've had up to 7 or 8. I've lived my entire life loving and taking care of dogs and cats, and now that I'm home from school and in need of work on the side, I'd love to be there to take care of yours. I'm currently a full-time college student but I will available for the whole of the summer to be there for and take care of your pet. As I will be doing walking and drop-in visits, the extent of my care will be limited to shorter interactions. Despite that, I promise I will be nothing but attentive and caring for your pets in the time that I am with them. As for my boardings, know that your pet will be well cared for. PLEASE NOTE FOR BOARDINGS, if your dog has issues with urinating indoors we will put a dog diaper on them during the day, we use Pet Parents diapers. They are frequently changed and washed so it remains sanitary, but urinating indoors causes issues of our dogs all trying to mark in the same places.

Esther is so amazing with any sort of animal, especially dogs and cats. They all always love her just as much as she loves them.

Safety, trust & environment

Pets being boarded are free to wander the house but their food and water bowls as well as their bed are set up in my bedroom. If you don't bring a bed, one is provided, but it is recommended to bring one of their own so they can have a familiar smell. They will go on two walks, one at 6 AM and one at 8 PM on account of it being much cooler outside at those times, and go in the backyard at noon and 4 PM. The backyard is small and not fenced, but comfortable enough for small dogs to walk around with the leash on.

Information Esther B. would like to know about your pet

Pretty much anything that you may think I would need to know, for example if your pet is anxious with new people or has particular behavior issues or other needs.

A typical day

A typical drop-in will include playtime and attention in addition to satisfying needs, and a typical walk will be approximately one mile long, depending on the dog's size and physical ability.

I wake up at 6 in the morning, when I give my elderly cat medicine and will walk your pet if you are boarding with us. This is when our dogs, boarding dog included, eat their first meal.. Then, at noon, our chihuahua-rat terrier mix needs a long walk and the smaller dogs can be let into the backyard, especially in the summer heat. The same thing happens again at 4 PM. Then, the dogs will eat again at 6 PM and the elderly cat receives his second dose of medicine. Everyone is let out again for one good walk at 8PM, before going to sleep for the night.
