Care for Furry Friends

I'm a PNW native looking to provide care and companionship for your loved ones while you're away, stress-free! I have lots of experience with pets of my own, as well as helping to care for the critters of others. Dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, rodents, lizards, fish... I am familiar with giving insulin and fluid injections as well as administering oral and topical medications (for dogs and cats), even those who won't fall for peanut butter or cheese pockets! My specialty is caring for older animals who have some extra needs, I'm gentle and quiet, familiar with special diets, comfortable with cleaning up messes, and as mentioned, providing medication. That said, I am also happy to provide active play times and long walks to the more energetic or youthful pets as well, of course! I hope you'll consider booking with me!

Safety, trust & environment

I know every household runs differently and each pet will be accustomed to different routines and rules. I am flexible and would be happy to learn and follow the rules of your home and keep things as routine and stress-free for your pets as possible while you are away! I'm comfortable with giving lots of love, play, and snuggles both indoors and outdoors, or also just keeping a watchful eye from a distance when pets need some space. I know pets can require some extra care around the house in the form of cleaning as well, and I always strive to return your home to the state I found it in when I arrived. This includes taking out the trash, wiping down surfaces I've dirtied, sweeping/vacuuming if needed, and washing my towels/linens unless requested otherwise. I always send lots of photo and video updates while you're away, and video calls are of course also possible if requested.

Dog Walking • lug 10, 2026

Erika was so great with Fletcher. She made sure to get him the walk he needed, kept him safe, provided me a thorough report and was a pleasure to work with. I'll definitely be booking her again.

I had an outstanding experience with Erika dog sitting for multiple days. From the very beginning, communication was prompt, professional, and reassuring. When I was away, I received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave me complete peace of mind. Dogs were home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which speaks volumes about the attention, patience, and genuine love Erika provided the pups. If you’re looking for someone who is dependable, trustworthy, and truly passionate about animals, I can’t recommend her highly enough. I will absolutely be using her services again and would confidently recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care. Thank you for going above and beyond!

Erika was absolutely wonderful with our dogs. We have an energetic 2 year old and a senior 13 year old, she sent multiple photos each day and kept us updated on their adventures all weekend. We will absolutely book her again! She also kept our home very tidy and went above and beyond with things like washing her linens and folding the ones we left in the dryer.

Erika was one of the best house sitters we’ve had so far! It’s the simple acts like washing the sheets and lite cleaning before our arrival that made her go above and beyond. We will be definitely booking her again!

Schedule

For house sitting, I will stay overnight, and be at home during the day often, working from my computer when I'm not on other appointments, (or grabbing food or something). I keep my range of service small so I can spend less time commuting, and focus on caring for your friends and get to your location quickly and easily to avoid tardiness or unexpected absences.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Erika & Dustin can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I would like to know their typical routine, any special needs they have, and if there are any behavioral issues and how you prefer they are handled. I always require a meet and greet for safety reasons to ensure that your pets do not display any aggression towards me, and have a safe introduction to me while their owners are around. I want to ensure they are happy and find me a good fit!
