Just on here to pet some fur babies
Pet care experience
I grew up caring for animals on our farm and have always had a deep love for them. My own fur baby Moge passed away last year. He was such a sweet nugget who gave me plenty of experience. I understand how to read animal’s behavior and listen for cues of distress/anxiety. I have experience with dogs of different sizes and breeds. I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own and will respect boundaries and rules that you have in place for their training and schedule. I was always a frequent visitor at our local dog park, we might have even met!
Reviews
Esther was beyond wonderful! She sent us pictures updates every day. She took our dogs on daily walks and loved on them like we would. When we came home she had tidied up and left us a sweet note with flowers. Exceeded all of our expectations!
She was so good with my fur babies! I didn’t have to worry about my pups because she kept me updated on my babies. I will definitely use again in the future! Also. She cleaned up my house and baked us banana nut bread waiting on us when we got home!
Esther was the perfect cat sitter! My kitty had kittens while I was away and she treated them like her own. She sent lots of photos/videos and went above and beyond what was expected. Highly recommend!
Esther was fantastic! She took care of my two unruly pit bulls and two kitties while staying at our house for 11 days. Both dogs got daily walks and snuggles and I got regular reports and pictures of all the critters. Despite the dogs getting into their own trouble (chocolate ingestion ?), Esther called me right away and we were able to get them the care they needed. In addition to this, she made sure we came home to clean sheets and towels in our room! Trust her with my babies 10/10, very respectful of our home, and would book her again in a heartbeat! ❤️

Safety, trust & environment
Safety first, during walks I prefer dogs to be on harnesses so as to limit the potential for injuries due to sudden jerks. I know first hand how some pups can get scared of oncoming traffic or excited by other wildlife, your pet’s health is my top concern. Walking should help their health not hurt it. I always allow pets to warm up to me when doing drop in visits and do my best to minimize stress during the visit. An owner’s absence can be confusing and stressful for the pet, it’s important they feel loved and safe. I will do everything I can to adhere to the boundaries you have in place with your pet such as jumping, treats, boundary areas in the home, ect. We can discuss these in detail prior to booking.
Home
Information Esther B. would like to know about your pet
Is the dog aggressive with other animals or humans, leash trained, have separation or storm anxiety? Are there any food intolerances or special quirks I should watch out for?
A typical day
We can go on walks and maybe even a trip to the dog park (if your pet is used to those interactions). If your dog is not leash trained, we will have to communicate expectations there. For drop in visits we start with potty then lots of scratches pets treats and play time. Your pet will have my full attention during the session.
