Availability

I am a grad student, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I do research and go to libraries during the day when they're open, but aside from that my schedule is pretty open. If there is an issue with scheduling I'm usually able to move things around to make it work and happy to work with you to figure out the best plan for you and your pet(s)!

Information Erica A. would like to know about your pet

If there is anything you want me to know about your pet or your pet’s care please let me know! I’m always happy to discuss how to best care for your pet before/during any bookings. :)

A typical day

I’d be happy to take your dog out on a walk, play games with them inside or out, and be sure to give them plenty of attention! If I’m looking after a cat, I will also play with them and get some of their energy out if they enjoy that!

Lifelong Animal Lover + Cat Person

Pet care experience

I have had pets my whole life (many cats and a dog—as well as a few reptiles) and have experience looking after both cats and dogs. I currently have one cat named Hildegard (I can spend way too long talking about her) and grew up having four cats in the house! I do not currently have a dog and I would love to spend time taking care of yours! I have flexible availability and will always check in/update the owner as much as they would like.

This is the second time Erica has taken care of my cat, Nyla, and I will continue to be a repeat client! I received plenty of photos during the drop in visits and Erica followed all the instructions I left.

Erica did a great job taking care of our Lucy while we were gone for five days. She was reliable and showed up every day, twice a day to care for Lucy and always sent us pictures and updates. I would greatly recommend her and trust her again to care for Lucy.
