Photographer in love with pets

Pet care experience

Since I was a child, I have had dogs. I love animals in general, and my love for them was so great that I have been a specialized pet photographer for 8 years. I also had a dog hotel for over 5 years until I moved, and this helped me understand our furry friends better. It gave me the necessary experience to handle puppies and senior dogs or those with special needs. I can administer oral medications. I have two beautiful large dogs, a Groenendael Belgian Shepherd and a Labrador Retriever, which is why I can walk, feed, and bathe them without any major problems.

I really needed someone in a pinch because of a very last-minute cancellation the night before a day trip to the Everglades, and Erika came through for me. I can’t thank her enough for taking care of my baby boy! 🐾

My pups enjoyed the stay with Erica. They came home pooped, from all the playing with their doggie buddies!

Information Erika P. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know if the dog is sociable (with dogs or humans), if it's a puppy or a senior dog, and if it takes any medication (oral or injected). If it's a dog with special needs, such as needing a lot of daily physical or mental exercise to be calm on walks, I also adapt to their routine for their outings and make their walks as comfortable as possible.

A typical day

I love to keep dogs physically and mentally motivated. Whenever I have guests, I try to make them feel at home. They wake up and go out to explore and play with their friends, always under supervision. If they want to go for a walk, we do it.

Currently, I am a pet photographer and my studio is located in my house! However, I am not always in sessions, so it fits perfectly to play with them, walk them, feed them, bathe them, and spoil them as they deserve.
