“Erin did a great job with our herd of 11 cats while we were gone for a week. She met their basic needs, but also met their emotional needs as well. She provided them the companionship they needed while we were gone so that they did not destroy our house. Thank you so much Erin.”

I have experience with dogs of all training levels and have worked with dogs of any age range. As a college student, my weekly schedule can vary, but my commitment to working with animals has consistently provided me with the perfect stress relief. I have access to transportation around the area and love talking long carefree walks. Creating a safe and trusting environment in the comfort of your own home is of the utmost importance. I want to assure you that I will always respect your privacy, ensuring that your cherished space remains a sanctuary for your beloved pets and a place of trust and security. In my past, I worked as doggy daycare attendant where I managed 30+ dogs at a time and have experience with dogs at all skill levels and ages.
About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was 15. I absolutely adore all animals and am super picky about how my pets are cared for. It's always scary leaving them with anyone new, so you can be sure that I will take care of yours exactly how you ask me to and will make sure they are safe and have everything they need. I've trained all of my dogs and currently have an elderly girl so I have experience across all age ranges. I'm very used to administering medications and handling complex diets. I'm not currently working outside of the home so I have tons of free time to care for your pet/pets. I am available day or night currently. I will follow your instructions when caring for your pet in your home. You know best what your pet needs and I will follow your lead. I will make sure they are safe at all times and pay attention to all the little details.
About: Im a pre-vet student who has worked in hospital, shelter, and rehabilitation settings, so I know how important our 4-legged family members are. Even when we have to leave them at home we want to make sure they stay happy and comfortable and that's why I do what I do! Im currently working at a veterinary hospital, so evenings are always great, and I often have 3 or 4 days off a week where I can spend even more time with your friends! You know best when it comes to your animals and your house. Whatever you are able to tell me about their behavior, rules, or routines will be taken into account and I will make sure everyone stays happy and healthy!
About: I've been a dog owner and lover for 30 years. Growing up my parents raised and breed AKC Golden Retrievers and I helped and learned so much then. Dog's love me and I love them back! I am pet and house sitting full time.I currently live in Oberlin Ohio. I enjoy outdoor walks pretty often and miss going to the dog park. With love and attention. Body language is very good way of knowing how a pet is feeling. Rewarding good behavior is the easiest part of the job.
