Safety, trust & environment

Erika took wonderful care of Snow while I was away for 6 weeks. She was communicative throughout, sending thoughtful updates along with brilliant photos and videos from her visits that genuinely helped me feel reassured. She was also very accommodating with any additional notes I added after I had already left. My cat Snow became very comfortable around Erika and looked forward to her visits. And seeing my cat relaxed, playful, and affectionate during visits made me really happy. I really appreciate the extra care and attention Erika gave to Snow’s routines and comfort. She was patient, thoughtful, and clearly cared about Snow’s wellbeing, not just completing the visit. I’m very grateful for all her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a remarkable sitter who is caring and reliable 😊

Erika did an outstanding job taking care of our 2-year-old golden retriever, Stanley, while staying at our home. From the start, she was professional, reliable, and easy to communicate with. She sent regular updates and thoughtful photos, which we really appreciated—it gave us peace of mind knowing Stanley was happy, comfortable, and in such good hands. It was clear that Erika genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs. She interacted with Stanley in a very natural and caring way, keeping him engaged, active, and well looked after. When we returned home, Stanley was relaxed and content, and the house was just as we left it. We wouldn’t hesitate to have her stay again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter.

We had a great experience with Erika! She stayed in our home for 7 days with Rosie and took wonderful care of her. Rosie was happy and well looked after, and our home was left clean and tidy. She checked in often and sent lots of photos, which we really appreciated while we were away. We would definitely book with her again.

Another great visit from Erika, our second time having her watch after our cats. Came home to two happy campers! Thanks Erika!

Erika did a great job with Dottie. She was on time and professional during our pre-meetings and she had great interactions with Dottie. Erika was pleasant, reliable and punctual each day. Her daily photo updates made us at ease that Dottie was being cared for. We would highly recommend Erika.

We reached out to Erika after another sitter was not a good fit for our dog. I was a little nervous our dog was too anxious and we would never be able to travel without him after the way he acted with the first sitter. She showed up with a treat bag on her hip and prepared to win him over. Within minutes he was playing with her and by the end of the meet and greet he was sitting on her lap. She was SO great with our dog and we were able to travel stress free for a weekend! I would not hesitate to have her again in the future!
