Personal Profile: Hello! My name is Erika, serving in the Colorado Springs area and living in beautiful Manitou. I have over 20 years of experience training, walking, and sitting dogs, cats, and other pets. Although I respect my and your time and energy, I work with people to be the most affordable for your situation while giving unparalleled attention, patience, and love to your pet(s). Please, if the cost of what Rover has tallied up seems astronamical, I will work with you. I can do that! The added extra costs could be something I can easily take off: a late pickup automatically charging for another full night or a few special circumstances that I can easily roll into a bundle. Services And Training: I offer training, grooming, walking, and pet sitting for dogs and cats and am experienced with pets like reptiles, fish, rodents, and more. I train dogs according to American Kennel Club guidelines unless the owner prefers something specific. I am a self-taught groomer with a rare attention to detail. Feeding, administering medication, and cleaning excrement and litter boxes are all services I perform, and if I'm watching your animals in your home, whether for overnights or check-ins, I can even houseclean and more if needed. I have a 2013 Jeep Compass with 4x4, so steep driveways in the snow are no barrier for me. When it comes to my professional experience, I am an extraordinarily hard worker with over 20 years of experience and absolutely love working with animals and their humans. Let's Connect: Send a message, and I'll certainly reply within 12 hours. However, most often I reply within 30 minutes. Thank you! I look forward to hearing from you.
