About Esther

Hi there and thank you for visiting my page. My name is Esther and I look forward to meeting you and your family (humans and animals altogether!). I have many years of experience caring for dogs - it has always been a big part of my life. My family has always loved animals (dogs especially). I grew up in the company of animals and quickly learnt to care for them.

My husband and I relocated to Canberra 6 years ago, along with our beautiful Autumn (Australian Shepherd). We soon discovered the wonders of a very pet-friendly city. So much open space and beautiful nature, paired with clean urban spaces. It is no wonder why Canberra has one of the highest pet ownership in the country. However, there has been instances where we had to travel and had to search for a carer for Autumn. I experienced first-hand how in-demand pet-sitters were.

I wish to offer pet-sitting services that would allow pet parents to travel, without the added stress of worrying on the welfare of their pets while away. I am also comfortable in administering medication to your pets.

We went away on a worry-free weekend getaway while Esther took excellent care of our two cats. Esther was patient, punctual, and always gave detailed reports on how our cats are doing. Will definitely book again.
