I help dogs reach their step goals
Pet care experience
🐶 I miss having a dog. Unfortunately, my apartment doesn't allow dogs, so I thought Rover would be a great way to play with pups while meeting my daily step goal. 🍼 My granduncle, who babysat me, was the founder of the first Korean dog rescue organization in Los Angeles. I grew up playing with all the dogs waiting for their forever family. Rescues have a special spot in my heart. In my own home, I grew up raising three dogs. Since moving to Oakland, I have been a cat mom for ten-plus years. I am also my friends' go-to person for their furry children.
Reviews
This was Esther’s second time with Hibsicus and it went even smoother than the first, she even got a few glimpses of miss scaredy cat. Really grateful for Esther being so understanding of last minute requests and being able to make sure our girl gets fed!!’
Esther took great care of my shy kitties once again!
Esther was such a great last minute sitter! I really appreciate all the visits she gave to help out feeding Hibiscus! She was very understanding that she was a shy new foster cat and was very sweet to feed her and make sure she had a clean safe place! Thank you Esther!
Above and beyond. Great experience. Will gladly book again with Esther.

Availability
🎨 I am a WFH Product Designer so I have some flexibility between meetings. 👟I *try* to go on a daily walk for inspiration, fresh air, and time away from my computer. Walking or walking to visit an adorable fur child makes my walks exponentially more joyful.
