Purrfesional and Fun Petsitter

Pet care experience

I have been in the pet sitting business since I was 12 (maybe even younger). I’m currently working at a vet hospital and love all sorts of animals. I am experienced in animal behavior, administering medication, and giving the fur babies all the love they need while their loved ones are away

Erica took very good care of our rabbit! He looked so happy and relaxed in all the photos she sent us!

Very, very grateful for all of Erica’s help with my cat after his surgery. He was in her care for a week and she updated me daily on his progress and also sent the cutest pics. She was very attentive to my cat even though he was frightened, anxious and stand-offish. I would 100% recommend Erica for your pets needs! :)

I think Erica is a magnet to my fur baby … she spends a lot of time on her lap… Can’t ask for more 💕

Safety, trust & environment

I have been fortunate enough to have grown up owning exotic pets down to just cats and dogs. I am very experienced in understanding pets needs and even anxious behaviors. If the pets are use to cuddling at night, they are very welcomed into my bed. If they would rather sleep alone in their own little area, they have it! However the pet is most comfortable, I will always do my best to give them that.

Information Erica W. would like to know about your pet

I like to know any and all special corks, medical history and maintenance levels. If any history of chewy/digesting toys and anxious behaviors. This allows me to plan accordingly

A typical day

I typically listen to what the owners like. Some may want me to take them on walks or to the dog park or even just relax. Every dog has its own special place they like to have fun and the owners know best!

I currently work a full time vet hospital job, which is one of the most amazing hospitals around that give me a chance to bring my fur babies with me to work so they are never alone. Unless they’re home bodies of course! I have 3 day weekends which allow me to spend most of my time with the fur babies as well.
