Joyful walks, happy dogs!
Pet care experience
For nearly 20 years, I have had the absolute joy of caring for numerous furry companions, including my beloved 7 year old pup named Seven. From administering medications with utmost precision to training dogs with patience and love, my experience in the world of canine caregiving runs deep. Beyond the bounds of my own home, I have eagerly extended my services to assist friends and family with dog walking and dog sitting, ensuring their four legged friends receive the same level of care and attention as my own. Trust me to be your dedicated and reliable partner in providing exceptional care for your precious pups! (I’m a permanent South Kingstown resident if long term care is something you’re considering.)
Reviews
Erica P is great! Communicates exceptionally well and clearly! Most importantly, she takes excellent care of our dog!
Erica was so easy to work and communicate with, and treated my dog just like her own!
Erica was very professional and communicative! She sent great pics as well!
Erica was reliable, kind, and very flexible! She was so helpful with the days we needed her! She sent me updates each day and confirmed that she would be there. She even took the time out of her own schedule to come and meet our dog as well as me prior to the walks! She is definitely someone I would recommend and someone I would use again!
About Erica P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
If given the opportunity to care for you pup, I would ensure they warm up to me first. I have a keen sense with dogs and how the small mannerisms and behaviors they exhibit to show whether they’re comfortable with me or a bit tentative. I also respect the ways in which you may have trained your dog, feel it’s important to maintain consistency and would do so while walking and caring for all dogs . (For example, mine was trained to walk and heal on the left)
Information Erica P. would like to know about your pet
Please share any behaviors I should know about your pup, training level and specific commands, silly quirks etc. If your dog has a special walking route, receives certain treats, is crated/contained to a certain space in your house that’s also great to know.
A typical day
I’m there to cater to my clients’ dogs therefore, I’ll participate in whatever activities the pups prefer. If it’s a 30 min walk, I’ll set a timer and ensure your dog receives their full half hour. If your pup enjoys playtime and it’s a drop in, I’ll play tug, toss a ball etc!
