Pet care experience

Caring, Passionate, Reliable

Rover is my full time job so taking care of your pet is my highest priority. I recently worked as a Dog Handler and Lead Assist for 2 years where I monitored dogs, cleaned up after them as well as feeding and administering medications. I have worked at 3 different doggy day cares and I have a lot of experience handling dogs. I grew up with a dogs and cats and have experience with puppies/kittens as well as senior cats and dogs. I spend most of my time outside enjoying what nature had to offer as well as reading books and spending time with family. I have a lot of experience with cats and have helped foster kittens for the humane society for years. I also used to have a pet rabbit named Edgar and I treated him like a prince!. I treat every animal as if they are my own because each animal is special. Animals are my passion and I love them with all my heart. I have 5 cats at home as well as 1 beautiful parakeet. I live with my parents so when I’m at your home watching your dog or cat, my parents are taking care of the cats and bird.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I am familiar with kennels and making sure everything is safe, I take into consideration what you want your pets to eat and what they can’t. I like everything to be clean so they aren’t getting into anything they shouldn’t. I respect if you prefer your dog not to say hello to other dogs on walks just in case the other dog isn’t vaccinated or if they don’t get along with certain dogs. I also refrain from using communal water bowls. I always clean up after dogs. I have pet care insurance as well.

I could not be more grateful for Erika. This is the second time we’ve had her watch out pups and she’s so attentive to our pups. We have one pup who has epilepsy and Erika has been really watchful. She communicates regularly with us, checks in on behaviors she’s noticing and takes great care of our home. We plan to continue working with her!

Erika took great care of my cat while I was away. As always, she spent plenty of quality time with my cat, Mitten, and it was clear how much she enjoys being around her—and my cat LOVES her too! I could tell from all the photos she sent me. One thing I especially appreciate is the detailed daily updates she provides, along with lots of photos. They give me so much peace of mind and allow me to see how Mitten is doing each day. Since I'm away, that's really the only way for me to know how my cat is doing, so I truly appreciate the consistent updates and communication. Thanks again, Erika, for taking such great care of Mitten and my place!

Erika took such good care of Wally. He takes a while to warm up to people, and Erika was patient with him & followed his cues to put him at ease. I can tell from the photos (great photos!!) that he was happy with her & trusted her. Thanks so much for taking such good care of my boy!

Rover is my only job so I can take good care of your animals. I do have lots of dog walks during the day so I would need to be able to leave your house sometimes up to 5 hours a day. Other than the walks and some appointments I spend all of my free time at your home with your animals.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Erika can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
If i'm walking your dog I would love to know if they are reactive towards other dogs and some people so I know how to react in those situations. I love all dogs so I am willing to work with any breed. I also like to know about allergies and meds as well as your daily routine with your pet.
