About: What sets me apart is the variety of animals I have cared for and the level of care I can provide. Here's what I can do for you: Dogs: I have lived with dogs my whole life. I've raised and trained puppies, provided medication and post-surgical care for seniors, worked with hard of hearing/deaf dogs, earned the trust of shy dogs, trained adults, done leash training, trimmed nails, grooming, walking, playing, and have generally been characterized as a dog whisperer. Cats: I can provide care to adult cats as well as kittens. Skills for kittens include: stimulating, syringe feeding, weaning, toilet training, socialization, medication administration, nail trimming. Birds, Fish, Small Mammals, and Reptiles: I also have kept aquariums, birds, and frogs and can provide care for these animals! I am comfortable with the care needed for small mammals as well. Pets are family and I know it can be hard worrying about them when out of town. I will relieve those worries! I'm currently working part time so I have several dates and times available to take care of your pets! Please send me a message and we can work out a schedule. I work my other job mid-day from Wednesday through Saturday: one 12-5 day (usually Wednesday) and the rest are 10-3 days. Wednesdays in particular I am available before 11:00am (due to traffic to work within the radius) and between 5:30pm to 8:30pm. Additionally, my midday availability for the 11-3 drop-in/walking shift is only for Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays unless otherwise specified! I do not offer boarding services in my home, but will be able to provide all necessary services in client households for your fur babies!
About: I've taken care of a variety of animals my entire life, including dogs, cats, reptiles, and rodents. I have experience with giving dogs insulin and other medication. I've volunteered at a cat shelter for about a year. I'm currently out of school for the summer so I have plenty of time to take care of pets :) After summer I will be at school two days of the week but otherwise available anytime after 10 am and before 8 pm I know how to feed and groom animals as well as give them medication. I can crate dogs if needed and let them outside or take them on walks.

Erika P.
“Erika has cared for my kitten and two adult cats multiple times. She pays attention to their vibes and knows when they want to chill or play. I appreciate how conscienious she is playing attention to details and directions. As a cat owner, the worst smell you can come home to is that of the litter box. I'm very meticulous about cleaning it as soon as possible - I don't wait until the end of the day. Erika made sure to do this because my cats don't use a dirty box; they find another place, like my laundry baskets, to do their business. Erika wonderful and is always welcome to care for my fur-babies.”
Jessica W.
“Jessica was great watching our home and dog over the weekend, glad to have found her! She was responsive and handled our dog who’s scared of storms well. Will book again!”
