Hello, my name is Erica. I am currently a stay at home mom expanding past the realm of my duties since my daughter is now in school, and I'm looking to expand my skills . I came across "Rover" and I was engaged with what it offered to those that want to start a business. I have always had a love for animals since I was young. I have previous experience as a receptionist/kennel attendent for a company that customized dog/cat boarding in a special way (Holiday Barn). I also have experience as a vet assistant, which gave me the hands on experience and knowledge within pet maintenance. My home has a full basement..half garage/half living area. I feel like that gives me the advantage to be able to assess the needs of different dogs/breeds appropriately. I also think that it gives the dog the advantage of being comfortable in the space that I'm able to have.
