Information Erica J. would like to know about your pet

-Are they okay with other dogs? -If I go on walks would you like me to socialize or stick to a training course? -Do they have any special routine that I need to be aware of? -Would you like me to take them to a dog park?

A typical day

I love taking dogs on walks around the neighborhood to get a little bit of scenery. I have many toys for tug-o-war and fetch, and bones (if you allow them bones) so they will always be entertained.

Loving Pet-sitter (Remote Worker)

Pet care experience

Since college, I have always been the go-to girl for watching friends' and family's pets. I've watched various dogs for months and weeks at a time and absolutely love it! I finally realized that I should sign up because I want to keep pet-sitting without having to wait for a friend or family member to go out of town! I'd love to watch your pet! If you book me to pet sit I will always definitely give them love and attention just as if it were my own dog. Always welcome to schedule a meeting beforehand. Thank You! -Erica

Erica was very conscientious with our needy German Shepherd and our temperamental kitty. They both seemed happy, healthy and well groomed when we got home. She took pictures throughout our time away to update us on their status and she followed our specifications and feeding and other directions to a tee. She is pleasant, cooperative, and professional. I highly recommend her. Both of our animals seem to love her, based on the pictures the description of their behavior, and also their initial meeting with her. She also went above and beyond in ensuring that our house was orderly when we returned. We are very pleased and happy with her services. She is super!
