Pet care experience

Loving, active home for fur babies!

Hello! I'm Erica, an experienced dog handler, and walker. I love animals, every size, age and breed. I am super loving, patient and always want to make sure your pet feels like they're right at home, with cuddles and attention. I have years of experience in dog sitting for family and friends. I live in a tri-level (stairs) 2200sq ft home in the neighborhood of Montclaire with a secure fenced in yard. I decided to join Rover.com because its a great opportunity that provides my pup, Ember Mae, playtime with new friends and a bit of extra income and enjoyment for me! There are no kids in my home and I dedicate myself to your dog just as I do my own! Dogs have a special place in my heart and aren't just pets but another member of the family! For each dog I would like to know their daily routine as in eating or walking so they can stay as close to their normal routine! I want your dog to feel right at home in my home and I look forward to providing a safe home, fun atmosphere, and loving care to your beloved fur child! I can't wait to meet you and your fur baby! Pets are welcome throughout my home and backyard. We will take walks in the morning or evening after work depending on what the day has in store for us, sometimes we can fit two walks in! A typical workday is spent in my office where there are dog beds to lounge on. In between meetings we run and play in the backyard to get outside and enjoy the sunshine. All pups can enjoy the large securely fenced in backyard and sleep in my bed with me or on their bed in my room, up to them!

I went on a 2 week trip and had Erica watch my two dogs. She sent so many photo and video updates and they looked so happy the whole time. It made my trip so enjoyable knowing they were with a loving person who gave them the attention they need. So happy to have found a new reliable sitter! Definitely recommend 😊

Erica was great and did a fantastic job with our boy Obi. She was accommodating and provided daily updates with pictures and videos. We will definitely be using Erica for our pet sitter needs in the near future

Amazing experience! Erica is always incredibly reliable, communicative, and truly treats my Goldendoodle, Beau, like her own. I loved her regular updates and photos—it made being away so much easier. Beau came home happy, relaxed, and clearly very loved. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will 100% book again!

Erica recently cared for our dog Zoe while we were out of town and she was great with communication and sending pictures! Zoe has stayed with Erica several times and she is always our first choice for dog-sitting. We know she’s in great hands with Erica.

Our high energy vizsla stayed with Erica for a weekend and had a great time! She kept us updated with videos of him playing in her glorious backyard throughout the weekend and he had a great time with her dog! Will definitely be using her again!
