While I can't wait till my retirement years to spend more time helping a larger number of animals, for now I'm a full time employee with weekends off, and Fridays have flexibility. If help is needed in the evening during the work week that too can be done.

Loving furballs newborn to elderly

Pet care experience

Every home I have lived in has included an animal from my day of birth (40 + years ago) to today. I started watching neighbors cats and dogs when I was elementary school. As an adult I'm still helping neighbors' animals. I have fostered cats and kittens to include bottle feeding. I've also been there for the last days of those sick and elderly. Experience providing medications of various types, and I also know that play time is important to help keep them in good health.

Highly recommend Erica. It was comforting knowing our fur babies were taken care of while we were traveling. She communicated well, and provided updates and pictures for each visit.

Erika did a great job with communicating & sending updates on our two cats. She was reliable and responsible! Highly recommend her for your fur babies.

Erica was great! My notoriously difficult i-don't -like-strangers cat actually approved of her!
