Whether you have a small parrot , a small to medium pup, cat or quirky guinea pig who needs fresh veggies - I'm ready! Let's give you back some free time while making sure your pets are cared for. I cant wait to meet your fur baby. I have a flexible schedule to fit you and your fur babies in between 6am and 3 pm Monday to Friday. Weekends hours are extra. When caring for pets in my clients home , I treat your space with the same care and attention I give my own.

Will attend to any messes/accidents and am happy to refresh bedding/clean guinea pig cages as needed.

Whether your home or mine, I strive to create a clean, safe and loving atmosphere so your pet feels secure and you feel at peace.

About: I am a physician assistant student looking for some extra income 👩🏻⚕️ I have many years of experience caring for my pets and pets of family and friends. I’m always willing to learn and work with any specific needs of your pet! My schedule is super flexible for the rest of the summer and and I’m willing to work with your needs as well!

About: Hicksville/SOB Rd.& OCR... Home FULL TIME, Dogs are in a low stress enviroment. There is a bedroom on the main floor just for dogs who need not climb the stairs, and I will sleep with them too! My yard is fully fenced in a nice neighborhood for walks if requested. I do require a meet and greet prior to sitting your dog to make sure we are a match. Please bring your vet papers of vaccination. I'm home FT Drop off times-flexible Pick up times-Before 1:00 pm, after 1pm you will be charged an additional $25.00 for Boarding. My husband will stay with your dog if I have any errands to run. I will be with your pet as much as possible playing Fetch, Belly Rubs, Snuggling, or just looking out the window watching other doggies walk by or talking to the mailman! I know most of the dogs in my neighborhood from walking my son Mickey. Mickey is super friendly, and cuddly Puggle. He is 10 years old and unfortunately he has limited eye site. He shares, and loves doggies to visit. The reason I do this: I would love 2 dogs, but my husband says there's not enough room on our bed. So having sleep overs fills my need for a 2nd dog. Depending on the time of year along with the weather my husband will walk your dog With Mickey if requested. Bedtime is always on the first floor with me in our guest room,they can snuggle in bed with Mickey and I or curl up in a dog bed in the room. Snacks are given if you allow just bring your own. We have an in ground pool and will personally supervise your dog when the pool is open. If your pet swims, bring their swim vest! Again I do require all vaccines be up to date, and that you have a flea and tick preventive in use of your choice. Please bring that information during our Meet and Greet along with any needs for your fur baby and any questions you may have. Meet and Greet is in my home to assure we are a match allowing us to get acquainted for you to see our surroundings. They are free and can take 15-45 minutes. We will meet according to both our schedules. You can go away on your vacations, or quick day trips knowing your dog is in a happy loving environment. Bring what your dog needs to feel at home, leash, food, their bed/blanket (we have extra beds and dog dishes), favorite toy, or snacks. My house is small but our hearts are big❤️, we have room to make all our pets feel like they are home! I don't like to take more then 3 dogs at a time for sleep overs. That's just enough for me and my husband to stay cozy with your pet and mine. One at a time is preferred. I also administer medication both oral and injected for those needing.

About: I’ve been raising, helping to raise, and training animals since I was 10 years old! Dozens of horses, dozens of dogs, 6 birds, and 2 cats later, I dare say I enjoy the company of animals more than people. I worked for a company called PupStrut in Manhattan when I was attending college for all 3 years at that school. I provided training and a full hour walk for 3-5 dogs/day roughly 3 days/week. (Sometimes more, sometimes less depending on the client) I’m freelancing and cleaning houses part time currently. I am helping care for my in-laws animals as well. I’d love to help a few other families care for their furry babies! I need a meet and greet with the owner to learn about the ins and outs of a pet’s space, their dietary needs, health issues, personality quirks, and what training needs they may require. I’m a quick learner and I’m organized to a flaw.

About: Hi there my furry friends! I've been around animals my entire life. From volunteering at animal shelters to sitting and training my friends dogs. I've been a vegan for the past 20 years and I'm an active animal equality activist and severe lover. Food, fitness and animals are my world! I've had dogs my entire life and have trained them all myself. Don't worry, I don't discriminate against your age or breed. You're perfect the way you are. Size though.... yes but only because my apartment is very small! I'm not strict about canceling or last minute bookings. It's no big deal! Life happens! I love to stay active and promote a healthy lifestyle which includes love for all creatures of earth! Feel free to message me with any questions you may have. How long have I been dog sitting? My entire life! I became vegan at the age of 6 and have been an active animal activist ever since. I've volunteered at animal shelters and even trained my friends dogs. I've never had a time in my life where I didn't have a dog in my home. My father was this way as well. He used to be a breeder and trainer so he taught me everything I know. At one point we had 32 pets in (or out of) the home (all different species), including an alligator! Can I administer medication? If you need to take a pill everyday, put on special creams, have special food prepared for you, that's fine. Shots, I'm not experienced in byt have no problem following your instruction. I freelance so I create my schedule. It all depends on the dates. I'm mostly home. I'm an actress and voiceover artist so unless I'm booked for something, I'm home. How do I care for them? I give all the love, fun and snuggles that I can and the rest is up to your instruction! You tell me what you need and I got you!

Ripley (my cat) instantly took to her - she gave her so much play time and snuggles. And respected her boundaries when Ripley just wanted to sit close by. Anyone who has their fur babies watched by Erin is truly lucky - she’ll quickly become one of their favorite people!”
