Pet care experience

I have a 1 year old German Shepard Dog. I am very patient, energetic, and loving. I have grown up with animals all my life and will treat your dog like family. I have a BA in Psych. And a masters in science. I can stay at your home with your dog, provide walks, or do drop in visits. Meet and greets are always welcome prior to any service being provided. I have a flexible schedule and I'm very dependable. I would love to help you out and watch your furry friend! Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to hearing from you and your pet!

Erika was great with Wayne for an entire week! She really put my mind at ease going away and I would highly recommend her and use her in the future!

Erika was great! We went on vacation for 2 weeks and left our pup with Erika. She sent plenty of pictures, and she was not hesitant to ask us questions she had while doggy sitting. She treated our dog like her own! I felt confident that she was taking good care of our pup, and it made our vacation even more relaxing!

Erika was a wonderful sitter! She was flexible, easy to communicate with, and did a great job with our pup. She sent photos and updates. Our dog is a little timid, but just a few minutes into the visit she was happy and off on a walk. I would definitely recommend Ericka!
