Safety, trust & environment

I have one dog who is very friendly with other dogs and cats, so whoever I’m sitting would also need to be okay with dogs! I am happy to care for your pet however you normally do, whether that be longs walks or just letting them outside in a fenced area.

Information Erica P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet is not good with other dogs, and I can choose to leave my dog at home (if just a drop-in or walk).

A typical day

I like to match the energy level of your pet. If your pet is old and wants to relax, I will keep them company. If your pet is young and spry, I can take them for a hike or play fetch! Whatever your pet needs and is used to, I can do!

Attentive and caring pet sitter!!

Pet care experience

I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own, and trust me, mine is SPOILED :) I’ve lived with dogs since I was 4, and used to have a cat as well! I understand how sad it can be to leave your pet behind and how hard it is to trust that they are getting the same love and attention that you would give them yourself. I make it my goal to quell that fear in my clients by providing undivided care and attention to their pet and sending regular updates.

Erica dog and house sat for 2 weeks. Ghillie (a 10yo bird dog) was relaxed and happy when we returned home. She walked him regularly and kept to his usual routine. He got along great with her pup Rigatoni, which is saying something as he is used to being solo dog in the house and can be wary of other large dogs. House was as clean and tidy when we returned as when we left. She brought in all mail and packages.

Erica is one of the kindest and most trustworthy people I know. She’s responsible, punctual, honest, and incredibly attentive. I deeply trust her with the care of my precious pup. She always goes above and beyond to make sure he feels loved and well cared for whenever I’m away.

Erica is not only a wonderful pet mom, but she is also a good human caregiver. She has taken care of both of my children and both of my pets. All at the same time. She’s loving I trust her completely. She’s very responsible. She’s timely. She’ll listen to your instructions. she will love your pet as if it’s her own. I couldn’t recommend a better pet caregiver than Erica.

Erica is a kind, attentive, and responsible caregiver. It is difficult for me to leave my pup with other humans but I trust Erica completely. She was very active with my dog, and I can tell my little rascal Sampson had a great time hanging with her. He even knows her name! If I say "wanna go to auntie Erica's house?!!" he gets the zoomies and is ready to go! We love Erica!!!!!!
