100% response rate
Usually responds in a few minutes
100% bookings with photo updates

Safety, trust & environment

I value safety above all else and keeping the dog at ease is my main goal! I stick to any routines or schedules the dog may have, and I meet them where they’re at. If they LOVE walks or would rather sniff a bush for 10 minutes, I’m happy to do anything for your pup! I make an concerted effort to read their body language and anticipate what they are trying to communicate.

Information Erica S. would like to know about your pet

I like to know if your pet has any anxieties so I can help manage them! Please let me know how your dog does around other dogs in case we happen upon one in while out and about. Lastly, please let me know if your pup can have some of my treats!:)

A typical day

I value both mental and physical stimulation, so I always make an effort to include both while caring for your pet! I always love a good game of tug or fetch, and letting them practice their tricks for fun!

Pets

Erica S. has Star Sitter status

The Star Sitter program highlights responsive sitters who deliver highly rated care and have a history of listing accurate availability and preferences, making it easier for pet parents to find the best care for their pets.

Caring for animals is my passion!

Pet care experience

I have cared for dogs since I was 12, and have loved every second of it! I have been a reliable caretaker for families and friends’ dogs for years. I have my own dog so I completely understand the love you have for your own! I have experience taking care of puppies as well as senior dogs. I have volunteered at my local humane society in high school, and completed multiple training courses emphasizing positive reinforcement training methods with my own dog. I have experience handling small dogs with lots of spunk to large dogs who are energetic and love to play, as well as reactive and anxious dogs. I aim to meet each pup where they’re at and make their experience with me a positive and fulfilling one.

Erica has been a wonderful dog walker for my senior dog. She is communicative with me and attentive to my dogs needs. My pup looks forward to her daily walks with Erica and I look forward to the photos of her adventures.

Erica was able to accommodate us last minute and even put up with our post-move chaos boxes. She was incredibly communicative and we'd absolutely book with her again!
