“Maria has been professional yet personal since I reached out. We set up a meet and greet and Bernie was completely comfortable from the start. Today he visited early and stayed through the day. I’d say he had a blast since he ate and has been asleep since. Maria provided an excellent experience for both Bernie and I. We will visit again! Thank you Maria”

“I brought my two fur babies to Pittsburgh, PA to be with me while I attended my class reunion. I found Ms. Carol on Rover. Immediately when I saw her face I knew she was the one I could trust my babies with. Ms. Carol, I’m so pleased to have met you. My babies were safe, looked after as if they were hers, attended to when needed, but most importantly, welcomed into her home by her fur babies.”
About: I’ve grown up with animals and have ALWAYS had a special place in my heart for them. I have worked in boarding facilities for dogs and cats and currently have 2 overly spoiled dogs I try to take everywhere with me, and 1 cat who runs the household.

No amount of potty breaks are too many and there are no time restrictions on feedings. I have a fenced in yard out back and 2 friendly dogs for your fur baby to keep company. I have a play pen for smaller dogs if necessary.

Erica W.
“I can’t think of anyone more naturally gifted with animals than Erica. Her love for pets is genuine, deep, and incredibly heartwarming. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or even the shyest of animals, they all seem to gravitate toward her with instant trust and affection. She treats every animal in her care as if they were her own—patient, gentle, and completely attentive to their needs. I've seen firsthand how she takes time to understand each pet's personality and routine, making them feel safe and loved when their owners are away. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets with true compassion and responsibility, Erica is the one you can trust wholeheartedly. She's more than a pet sitter—she's a true friend to all animals.”
