About Erika G.
Communication

Safety, trust & environment
Boarding: I rent a bedroom in a home in beautiful Cheyenne Canyon with a big yard with a mini forest that is not fenced. However, there are many hiking trails in my backyard, so I have provided boarding for pets in the past with many fun activities like long walks, playtime, and basic training if needed. Your loved one(s) will be welcomed. Bathing and grooming can be accommodated as I am very experienced with both. Petsitting: I am respectful of my clients homes and possessions and do not mind being watched on camera as long as I'm aware of it. I am very tidy and offer cleaning services on top of caring for your little ones if desired. I follow owner's instructions to a tee and and provide plenty of fun activities like long walks, playtime, and basic training if needed. Bathing, grooming, and other special accommodations can be overexceeded as I am very experienced with animals and their needs.

Information Erika G. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors that I can accommodate for. I am familiar with administrating medications and even shots if needed. I can find little adventures and fun activities for any special circumstance. I can even help correct any not-so-wanted behaviors with kindness and grace. I am very honest and open, so please feel free to extend transparency to me as well so we can give your loved one the best time possible. Thank you!
A typical day
I love to stimulate dogs physically and mentally. I can train any commands that you would like them to know and find great pleasure in watching them grow, so we can show off for you later. We will play your pet's favorite games and some new ones I bring or we come up with. When walking, I like to go on your dog's pace, making sure we sniff all the smells and explore all the new places... unless you are currently implementing definitive leash training which I can most certainly do. If your dog likes hikes, we can do that! If your dog likes dog parks, we're there! If you're boarding at my place and feel comfortable with me taking them on the nearby trails, I would love to take them on those adventures!

Pet care experience
Personal Profile: Hello! My name is Erika, serving in the Colorado Springs and Woodland Park area and living in beautiful Cheyenne Canyon. I have over 20 years of experience training, walking, and sitting dogs, cats, and other pets. Although I respect my and your time and effort, 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. When it comes to my professional experience, I am an extraordinarily hard worker with an abundance of glad 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.

Reviews


Erika took great care of our pets. Especially our husky who got lots of exercise! She’s very caring and sent lots of great updates and pictures.

Solita seemed to enjoy her time with Erika a lot.She kept us updated and did really well with Solita . We felt very comfortable and relaxed leaving Solita in Erika’s care , we will be returning clients .

Erika looked after our dog so we could explore the nearby Cave of the Winds for a few hours. Erika was very accommodating of our last minute booking, gave us lots of updates and spoilt our dog with a long walk. I’m happy to recommend Erika!

We were in Colorado from out of town and Erika was a real gift! She was wonderful with our 6 month old aussiedoodle! Can’t say enough good things!
