Dog lover looking for cuddly dogs
Pet care experience
I have now about 3 years experience dog sitting and boarding dogs here in Bellingham. I have a very very sweet australian shepherd mixed with bernese mountain dog that would love some buddies around the house. My dog is free to roam the house inside and outside and yours would be too. I have a fenced backyard that they will love. Someone is always home, my partner and stepson love playing with any and all the doggies I have over too. My dog is current on all his shots and neutered. With that said dogs that aren't neutered or spayed are welcome so long as i don't already have another non neutered non spayed dog already staying here. My dog loves walks so we would definitely do some of that. Plus lots of cuddles! Very much looking forward to meeting your pet. I am willing to meet and greet with not so friendly dogs and dog sit them so long as they are not aggressive towards me or my dog. My dog Yoshi is very friendly but if another dog doesn't want him near he will stay away and leave said dog alone. Yoshi is a pretty good listener and not aggressive at all.
Reviews
She’s awesome! Loved on my dog.
Esther was so fantastic with my dog! My dog is experiencing some separation anxiety right now, but warmed up to Esther very quickly. She sent updates with pictures throughout the day and was so good to my baby girl ?? Definitely recommend Esther as a dog sitter!
Esther, took care of my one year old Corgi and I can't express how amazing she is. She sent us lots of photos and videos throughout the time he was there. She treated Sancho like her very own dog, which I appreciate so much! We don't travel often without our dog but we might start having to leave him behind a little more frequently because he had so much fun. He came home tired!! Thank you Esther!
My little multipoo mix had a fantastic time with Esther during his 5 day stay. She was very patient and loving with him; he really enjoyed all the attention! Thank you Esther!

I am flexible as far as what kind of care your pet needs depending on the dogs personality. Walks and fetch in the backyard we can do. If dogs are big pullers and high energy walks might be shorter and fetch will be longer :) Cuddly dogs will of course get lots of cuddle time from everyone in my household. Slower walks are available for older dogs. Cat care in your home will include lots of toy play time and cuddles if they like that.
Home
Information Esther M. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if they are friendly or can handle being with another dog. All breeds are welcome. I love detailed feeding and medication lists. Also good to know all the commands they know specially if they are still learning some so I can reinforce those with them. Quirks, likes and dislikes would be good to have as well.
A typical day
Walks would be either around my neighborhood (tweed twenty) or around dog parks. For example lake padden or whatcom falls. Dog parks are of course an option too. Or if you would rather not have them at the dog park we can play in my backyard as well.

Availability
I have a very open schedule for dog sitting and boarding. However as I am currently writing this I am just about fully booked with repeat clients. I am available here and there on some weekends and weekday afternoons for drop ins. I will answer all requests to let you know if I am available even if I am not.
