Pet care experience

Paws on Board

I’ve taken care of animals my entire life. I worked at a veterinary clinic taking care of the boarders in the mornings and in the evenings until covid started. I grew up with dogs, cats, fish, and a hamster. Never once was there a time when there wasn’t an animal around. I’ve taken care of dogs in their home multiple times, most times the dogs needed special care like medication. I took those dogs for walks and sometimes car rides. I spent time playing with them and just giving them attention.

Erika was very nice and communicated well. She was very responsive when messaged. Erika was great with Coco and was always on time to her visits with Coco.

Erika was wonderful taking care of our Lance during the holiday. We would have loved to take him with us, but it is too stressful for Lance. Lance was very happy to stay with Erika as she has a pup of her own. Yay for a playmate!

Erika was great. My cats usually shy away from new people but they all came out to meet her. Will definitely use her again

She’s a great person with great intentions. Always the best when it comes to animals. Never seen an animal get aggressive towards her. Always knows what to do with animal when they are sick or hurt.

Safety, trust & environment

I am able to take dogs on walks, give them the care that they need, and spend as much time as I can with them. I’m able to give them their medication if they need it or kennel them if they need to be. I can also help train them. Whatever they need I will do everything I can to get them what they need.

Pets

A typical day

I love to play with dogs and puppies. We’ll play lots of games and go on walks to check out all the smells. We might even go to a dog park.
