I work from 8-3, M-F. My boyfriend works from home all day, so he’d lend a hand when I am caring for your pet during the work week. He also has a Rover Account so we trade off. I am off my 4:30. Home during the summers. Home on the weekends. When I house sit I typically take reading material and stay with your pet from 2-4 hours go home and come back.

Information Erika I. would like to know about your pet

My dog is shy who eventually warms up or maintains his distance. He is scared of big dogs but does better with dogs his size. He’s a small/medium sized bichon frise.

A typical day

Typically I like taking your pet around my neighborhood for a walk to get them familiar. At home I have a lot of puzzles and toys ready to play with. We live in a safe & peaceful neighborhood so we would definitely be walking daily.

Pet care experience

Hello! During the day, I work from, 8-3. My partner works from home,. Together we have helped each other care for- doggos. We’re also looking to socialize our dog as we are new to the area :) win-win. We have a calm home and good energy, your pet will feel welcomed & a lil spoiled! Their mental health is just as important as their physical health, so we provide frequent potty breaks, stimulating puzzles, and trips to a nearby park or around the neighborhood. Helping them feel relaxed and hopefully like part of the family. I look forward to chatting, lmk if you’d like to meet beforehand. Meet our doggo & see how you feel. :)

I’ve never seen my baby Princess so happy with a sitter! Princess enjoyed staying with them & playing with their 2 pups. And I think she felt a similar home atmosphere, having indoor plants like ours. But most of all, she loved the nurturing character of Erika & her partner. We were sent photos & updates & that kept us at more at peace while on vacay. Will definitely use them again & again! ♥️🫶♥️

Erika was awesome. This was my first time ever using a dog sitter and Erika made us feel like family. She updated me with pictures and texts letting me know how our puppy was doing which really helped the kids and I. It couldn’t have been any easier and we really felt comfortable that our Bandit was in great hands.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
