Loves all pets and very flexible
Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Erika I'm the pet parent of Lola and Kiwi. I'm also a huge animal lover and a trustworthy individual that fully understands the dedication and commitment required to look after your four-legged family member. I have six years of experience caring for my pets, and as a pet sitter on and off. I have hosted sleepovers, house sat and successfully gone on several dog walks. My oldest Lola has gone through the behavioral training at PetSmart and ended up picking up some pretty cool tricks that we love to teach. Currently, I have a pretty flexible schedule, and for the most part, find myself working from home in the mornings. Typically I have 3 out 4 Fridays off in a month and I work a couple of hours on Saturday. I try and take my dogs out for a walk every morning to get rid of their wiggles, and if the day is nice and the energy is positive, we stop and have a quick play session at the dog park. Needless to say, my dogs are a very important part of my life as I know yours are as well and I can assure you that your pet(s) will receive endless affection and care as if they were my own.
Reviews
Erika was awesome! One of my cats is very shy around people but warmed up to Erika very quickly! She sent me me pictures, updates and overall made me feel very reassured that my cats were in great hands while I was away. Thank you, Erika!
Erika was wonderful with my dogs. She was very flexible and would go above and beyond to take great care of our boys. I never had to worry when I went out of town and they were in Erika's care. :)
Erika was wonderful with my pets! My little old lady hadn’t been feeling well and Erika was great at sending information on how she was doing. I asked her to stay in my home the two nights and I came back to it cleaner than when I’d left. She was sweet to leave a card and photo from the stay :) I received updates and sounds like they had a nice time hanging out. I’d highly recommend Erika and I hope to have her stay with them again!

Information Erika O. would like to know about your pet
I like to know medical issues, behaviors with new people, behaviors with other dogs, are they leash trained (if they are not, no problem I can work with that), Vaccinations, any restrictions parent may have for a pet. I don't have a lot of experience working with special needs dog, or older dogs but I can learn.
A typical day
I like going to the park next to the humane society, my dogs typically like to play in the dog park but I’m very protective if I see another pet being a little aggressive. If your dog is not into going on walks for too long and just likes to chill on the couch I'm good with that too.
