Dog walker/runner/cuddler/petter!

Pet care experience

I am an animal lover with a great amount of animal experience. I've dog walked and dog sat, for several years now. For different companies, depending on where I lived at the time. I've learned a lot from these companies and this has prepared me for managing my own dog walking clients. I've owned a dog myself, but sadly she passed away. Fortunately, she lived a very long happy life (17 years). I have a bachelors degree in animal science from UMDCP. I've worked as a vet tech at an animal hospital. Therefore, I can administer any meds your pet needs! I've known so many kinds of dogs with a variety of personalities. It's so great to get to chance to make so many fluffy friends!

Erika was awesome! She stayed in contact with us the whole time we were away. We will definitely be using her again.

Ericka has years of experience caring for pets especially dogs. She has experience giving dogs their medication (pills) if needed and takes extra care to make your pet feel comfortable. She is careful to follow your walking schedule. There has been more than one occasion where I needed a someone to watch my pet last minute and Ericka has always been very accommodating. Great all around.
