Erika did a great job taking care of our pets especially our very old dog who is sometimes cranky with new people. She kept our dog in good spirits while we were gone.

Erika took wonderful care of my fur babies! She sent me the cutest pictures of her making my dog so happy. I was very thankful for her help when I had to go out of town. I absolutely recommend Erika for any of your pet's needs.
