Active, timely, lover of animals!

Pet care experience

I have loved dogs my whole life and know how important it is to feel like your fur baby (or babies) are in good care, so you don't worry about them as much. I am available to take care of your dog this summer until the end of July. I will treat him/her like my own and make sure that you can leave your pet for vacation or work stress free. I have a dog of my own (a corgi, with enough spunk to be 4 dogs) and I personally need to feel confident in whomever takes care of him when I am away. To ease your mind, I have experience dog-walking and dog-sitting (and cat-sitting) for friends and neighbors; additionally, I used to work for PetSmart so I am used to playing with or getting to know unfamiliar dogs of all breeds and temperaments. I'd be more than happy to dog-sit, walk your dog, or jog with your dog-- I'm an active person! I can brush, bath, feed, and care for your dog. I have experience administering oral meds, IV fluids, etc (if needed). I am detail-oriented, prompt, and organized. During the rest of the year, I am a full-time teacher which is why I have availability in the summer. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Erica took the time to come over to meet my pets and right away they both loved her- it was a little embarrassing how much my puppy wanted to give her kisses! She checked on them during a long day out, feeding and taking our dog out for a break. She is very responsible and sweet with the animals. She even sent the cutest photos to reassure us that everyone was happy at home. We will definitely ask her to sit in the future.

Erica is a great choice for a dog sitter because she is highly knowledgable and caring of her own dog, as well as other people's pets. She always makes her dog a priority, even with her busy schedule as a teacher. She is an incredibly responsible dog-parent and would be a great person to care for anyone's pet.

I have known Erica all her life. She has always loved animals and had a good relationship with them. Because of this, during high school and college neighbors, friends and professors ask her to pet-sit their animals. Erica currently owns a very well cared for and well behaved dog.

Information Erica S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know any health conditions or concerns. I have experience with oral meds for dogs, cats, and small animals as well as IV meds for small pets. I have never done dog CPR but I know how and would be more than happy to brush up on procedures, if that is a concern.

A typical day

I will walk with your dog in parks, your neighborhood, etc. I like to be outdoors. We can also play fetch, tug of war, frisbee, or go to dog parks.
