Your local dog loving vampire!

Pet care experience

I've had dogs all my life. My neighbors and friends count on me to babysit their dogs and cats! I love all kinds of critters, and I love being with animals.

Ericka is excellent with pets, my cat spent several extended stays with her, and she did amazing! It was honestly my first time seeing my cat being that affectionate with someone, I was impressed! He will run to her as soon as she’s around; I would definitely book her again and recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, flexible, and experienced with pets. I truly appreciate her help, even when it is last minute, Ericka will do her best to accommodate you and make it easier for you so you can enjoy your vacation worry-free!

Ericka has been pet sitting for us for several years. We always check she is available to petsit before booking any vacations. Our dogs get so excited whenever she comes over, even our grumpy cat likes her! I really appreciate that I can text/call her any time to check on the animals and she often sends us pictures and updates. Ericka stays overnight at our house while we are away so the pets are not alone, she is very respectful and we trust her with our home and our pets. We love our pets like they are family, we are so thankful we have Ericka to look after them when we are away and hopefully she continues pet sitting for many more years!

I cannot say enough about how well Ericka takes care of my 15yr. old cat, Smokey-Jo! She is extremely trustworthy and provides quality care. Whether it's last minute or planning ahead, Ericka is always there to help. My fur baby is always happy to see Ericka when she comes over for visits. Directions are left for Ericka and she follows them perfectly!!! I get communication and pictures during each visit. Ericka also has experience in giving medication and insulin as my fur baby is a Diabetic! Ericka not only does well with cats, she also has current experience dog sitting for 2 other couples that I am aware of (Ericka has a dog herself).

Safety, trust & environment

My home is fenced in the backyard, and we keep our dog on a leash in the ground so she doesn't try to jump over the fence just in case. We also have a crate for her inside, and she's crate trained. I don't care for other people's dogs in my own home, but I will do whatever is needed to do to keep their doggies safe. Just tell me and show me what you do.

Information Ericka W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your critter has any special needs, or it it needs a different approach to care. I myself am autistic and have ADHD, so I want to be conscious of any animals who are similar to me.

A typical day

I'd have a fun filled day with your pet! Lots of hugs and kisses if they allow it, a nice walk, playtime inside and outside, feeding time if they get fed during the day, and some cuddle and rest time to help them relax.
