Experienced dog caretaker!
Pet care experience
Hi there! My name is Erica. I've worked with canines professionally for about 4 years now. Until this past November 2023, I was the General Manager of a high-end dog daycare/boarding/grooming franchise. Since I've moved to Connecticut I am looking for new clients to take care of their animals. My specialities are daycare/boarding, basic dog training, dog walking I have a love for all animals and I am not limited to only watching dogs! I look forward to hearing from anyone who needs a reliable, safe, and enthusiastic animal caretaker.
Reviews
Erica took excellent care of our dig and a cat while we were on vacation.
I have know Erica for years now and she has always loved animals and has many pets of her own. Erica is a sweet and caring person. Her passion shows in her ability to handle all types of animals. She has taken care of my 3 large dogs and I couldn’t be more grateful for her care.
About Erica S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In other’s home or even my current job I always make sure that when meeting every dog I make them feel comfortable with me and gradually earn that trust! I’ve worked with dogs with certain sensitivities so I know that some dogs can take a bit to warm up! I will also be offering walking services and I’m very comfortable with dogs that pull on leash and/or have leash reactivity as I do have experience with this.

A typical day
Taking care of pets is so much fun and there’s so much to do! I have lots of games that stimulate dogs mentally and keep their brain active, I also love to take runs and walks with dogs. What dog doesn’t love the outdoors? Some dogs do need their chill time and just want some belly rubs which I’m happy to do.
