Availability

I work part time on a flexible schedule, which means lots of time at home to give all pets that extra attention. When I am away, all pets will be separated for security. I always make sure to keep pet parents updated with lots of pictures and any other updates. Also come check out where your pets will be staying while you're away. Rest assured your pets will be loved like our own and taken care of like royalty.

Amazing sitter! She watched my two big dogs for over a week and they came back looking healthy and happy. I loved the pictures and videos she sent me throughout their stay!! Great communication also :)

We had such a good experience with our dog sitter. She took amazing care of our babies, kept us updated, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. You can truly tell she loves what she does. Our dogs were happy, well cared for, and comfortable the entire time. I would absolutely rebook with her I would recommend her!

I cannot recommend Erika enough! She recently looked after my two dogs, Mango and Leo, and the experience was fantastic. From the moment I dropped them off, her entire family was welcoming and spent time hanging out with them, which put my mind at ease immediately. Her home is perfect for active pets, featuring a very spacious front and backyard where my dogs had plenty of room to run. I also really appreciated her communication style; she frequently sent me photos and videos through social media, so I never had to guess how they were doing. She was also incredibly attentive to their needs—she even noticed when their food was running low and consulted me on their preferences before replenishing it. I will definitely be using her services again in the future. If you want someone who treats your pets like family, book Erika!
