Registered Vet Tech to your home!

Please read through my entire profile :) **TRUE PRICING IS LISTED IN PHOTOS - ONLY AVAILABLE AFTER MEET & GREET!** I am a work from home Registered Veterinary Technician. I currently rent a home in Roseville with my pup. I would love the opportunity to provide services to you and your fur babies! I have had a deep passion for animals all my life. I grew up with cats, dogs, chickens, rabbits, and the occasional outsiders like our macaw and opossum. I have always known that I wanted a career in helping animals, and I graduated from Vet Tech school in 2017. With my training, I can provide excellent attention to the well-being of your pet(s) and care for them as if they were my own. I look forward to meeting your furry (or not-so-furry) friends! HOUSE SITTING: - I accept bookings for ALL pet species, breeds, ages, and sizes. This includes exotics and livestock. - During my stay, I can bring in the mail, water the plants, skim the pool, etc. Let me know what you need and I will be happy to discuss it with you! - I offer nail trims and anal gland expressions at an additional cost, but only if your pet allows me to do it on my own. - If your pet needs medication, there MAY or may not be an additional fee, depending on the route of delivery and level of difficulty. - If your animal(s) and my 50-pound spayed female dog get along, it would be amazing to have her stay with us in the home. If not, that is totally okay - but only as long as I have someone else available to take care of her! DROP-IN VISITS: - I offer drop-in visits between 30 and 60 minutes long up to twice a day. - I accept bookings for ALL pet species, breeds, ages, and sizes. This includes exotics and livestock. - During my visit, I can bring in the mail, water the plants, skim the pool, etc. Let me know what you need and I will be happy to discuss it with you! - I offer nail trims and anal gland expressions at an additional cost, but only if your pet allows me to do it on my own. - If your pet needs medication, there MAY or may not be an additional fee, depending on the route of delivery and level of difficulty.

Safety, trust & environment

I am sure you are nervous about having a stranger in your home, but I hope we don't stay strangers for long! You will find me very trustworthy and reliable. I like to provide each pet parent with a meet-and-greet, ensuring that I can provide the best possible care to your pets while you are away.

I highly recommend Erika to anyone looking for a professional person who really knows animals and shows both competence and affection with them. Erika was in my home for two days and did an excellent job of communicating with me and taking care of my dog. I was completely worried free. I highly recommend her.

Erika was amazing! We came home to two very happy and healthy dogs. One of my dogs is paralyzed in the hind end and requires bowel and bladder expression. Erika was able to provide that service for us and we were able to go on vacation with peace of mind! She is a great communicator and sent regular photos and updates!! Highly recommend and will use again!!

Erika was very responsive on Rover and accepted a last minute request to watch my cats. One of my cats has a history of a urinary blockage with concerning signs right before I had to leave for a trip. Erika was happy to house sit knowing this and was willing to bring him to the animal hospital if needed. My cats were happy and well cared for while she was at my house. She kept the home tidy and cleaned up our litter box area as well. She also helped us bring in some packages that were delivered. Overall, we had a great experience and would recommend her house-sitting services! Thank you Erika!

Came home to two happy dogs! Erika was wonderful with both our energetic pup and elder buddy. And communicated easily with us humans too. She made it easy for us to enjoy our vacation knowing the dogs were having a fun staycation with her - appreciated her text with pictures for updates.

Prompt, attentive, flexible, and super nice! She helped us take care of our 12 week old puppy when we needed to be away last minute and she did a fantastic job! I instantly felt comfortable with leaving our young puppy with her and our puppy just loved her! Will definitely be using her for any future puppy care!

Erika was a wonderful pet sitter. She sent me lots of updates of my dog and she left my house in perfect condition. She followed all my instructions and took great care of my girl Lily.

Schedule

I work remotely! My schedule is Sunday through Thursday from 3pm to 11:30pm. For overnight sittings, I will be able to be in your home throughout the whole day (besides errands and checking in on other pets). However, this means that if your booking begins on a work day, I will need to be in the home by 2pm. If your booking ends on a work day, I will need to be out of the home by 1:30pm or I will need to stay until midnight. Additionally, if your booking includes a work day, I will need access to your WiFi. Thank you for your understanding!
