Safety, trust & environment

For house sitting clients I come and go throughout the stay so that I may see to the needs of my other clients. I stay over each night following the established routine of the pet's household.

Information Erica K. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed or size preferences. I have worked with dogs with special needs such as separation anxiety, fear aggression, senior dogs, and puppies. We will discuss all of your pet's individual needs before booking and especially at the meet and greet. We will discuss feed and exercise routines, along with any other expectations.

A typical day

I enjoy walking dogs around their familiar area, like their neighborhood, or with owner permission and request, I also enjoy going to state parks for long hikes. If there is a good fence or other secured play area available we may also play ball or work on scent work. Creating enrichment activities is something I look forward to for all client pets, whether they are cats, dogs, reptiles, amphibians, or other small caged animals. My dogs enjoy lots of activities, such as those listed above, as well as camping, swimming and working bettering obedience training wherever we go.

Pet care experience

I have been working with dogs professionally and casually for 20+ years. I have experience with show dogs, including minimal handling in the UKC show ring for a friend. For a breeder I assisted with pregnant and nursing bitches as well as the pups from birth onward. I have worked with a vet as a young adult and know how to administer medication in pill form, submucosal form, oral liquid, intramuscular injection and subcutaneous injection. I have worked with dogs of all sizes, many breeds and many temperaments. I make sure dogs are well exercised on walks, so they are relaxed and fulfilled when the walk is over. I have a strong attention to detail and will make sure to follow the orders of the most discerning owners.

Erica is a great dog sitter! We left on a week long vacation and she stayed at our house with our two “Velcro” Havanese. She came a few times before our trip to get acquainted with them which was helpful. She truly understands dog behavior & my dogs adjusted well to her having a good “staycation”. She asked detailed questions and followed their routine. She even tried new things with them - licking mats after I explained they liked to lick to soothe themselves. She sent regular updates which gave us piece of mind to enjoy our vacation. Our house was in great shape when we returned with happy dogs who were less stressed staying in their own house with Erica who gave them love and attention. I would highly recommend Erica!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
