Pet care experience

Your pet's new best friend!

Hi! I’m Ericka 🐶😺 Caring for animals has been part of my life my whole life and it’s one of my greatest passions! I love paying attention to each pet’s personality and making sure my care fits what they need to feel happy and comfortable. I’m comfortable giving medications and handling any special care your pet might need so you can feel confident that they’re in capable hands! I’m really looking forward to meeting your pets and spending time with them while you’re away. Whether it’s exercising, cuddling or just hanging out, I make sure they get plenty of love and attention. I want every pet in my care to feel comfortable, happy and well taken care of so I am always sure to treat them like I would my own ❤️

Ericka helped check after my babies last minute and was such a life saver while I was out of town! One of my dogs has slight anxiety and she took time to play with them which helps him a lot. So grateful for her and he help, will defiantly request her again! 🫶🏼

This was my first time booking with Rover, and really using a sitter in general and I am so glad I chose Ericka. She was able to book with me last minute, provided detailed updates and amazing pictures each visit. Coming back home from my trip, I could tell my fur babies were taken well care of. 10/10 would book again

Erika did a great job! I had a medical emergency and had to find a last minute sitter so I turned to Rover and found Erika. She was quick to respond, kept me updated on each visit, and even managed to snap pics of my cats and send them too me. I highly recommend Erika!

Ericka is truly the best for even the most shy cats. We have 4 cats and she does so well giving everyone plenty of time and attention. Everytime we come home from vacation the cats are relaxed and happy! The photos she sends us while we are away always bring us so much ease knowing they are in good hands. Ericka does a great job of changing their litter, so the house never smells when we get back home from vacation. Which is also such a huge relief! We love when Ericka is available because we know the cats will be so happy to see her again! You can tell she loves animals and takes pride in her job. We 110% recommend her to everyone we know!
