Highlights
Pet care experience
I'll pamper your pet
I grew up having a cat by my side, and my earliest job was being the neighborhood pet-sitter. I have a lifetime of experience of knowing how to gently handle animals, and how to understand their ways of communicating with humans. I will provide a clean and healthy environment at home and happy walks when outdoors. When interacting with dogs, I stay friendly and calm; that energy is usually mirrored by the dog and we get along great. I'll always provide plenty of time for your dog to run around and exert that playful energy when outdoors... And then provide cozy blankets and treats when indoors. Providing an environment where the animal feels safe and secure while his Mom/Dad are away is my #1 concern as a pet sitter.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I tend to each animal based on the instructions of the owner and the personality of each animal. For young/energetic animals, I’ll provide playtime and fun companionship; for mellow/shy animals, I will provide a peaceful and serene environment.
Ratings and reviews
Great as always, Esther takes excellent care of our dog (who had some unexpected separation anxiety) and also leaves our house in a spotless condition.
Esther was wonderful for housesitting our pug, Willow. She sent daily updates and photos, which really helped calm the anxiety of worrying about how my dog was doing while I was gone. Willow had such a great time with Esther and you could tell she really trusted her and felt comfortable. I would absolutely book Esther again!
This was Walter’s second time staying home with Esther. I highly recommend Esther to care for your pets. She is responsive, flexible and great with Walter. She sent regular updates, which is always appreciated.
Thank you for taking such great care of Walter
Esther has been great with Charlie. He especially likes the belly rubs and quiet time on the couch with her. 💕
Thank you Esther for another great walk!

Schedule
I currently am unemployed, so pet care is easily a top priority while I do my other job seeking online. Throughout the day, I make sure their needs are well provided.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbsDogs over 1 year oldEsther can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- How much food and treats to allot at what times of day. What commands the dog knows. Any known health or behavioral issues so that I can deal with accordingly.
