Highlights

Enhanced background check

Pet care experience

Let’s get outside!

We had a family dog for two years where I was the primary caretaker, ranging from training, daily walks, feeding and play time. I was also needed by my neighbors when they were on vacation to check in on their pup by feeding and walking them daily.

Please do not let Erika care for your animals. Our experience with her has been filled with anxiety and regret. We accidentally re-booked her, and it was a big mistake. I’m going to leave a list of things that have happened while Erika watched my pets: 1.) My escape artist beagle was left outside by himself for almost two hours. 2.) My dogs’ water bowl was completely dry when I arrived home. 3.) Erika left my kitchen a complete mess and acted like my home was a hotel. 4.) Erika wouldn’t let my dogs out regularly. On a couple occasions, the dogs were inside the house for 11 hours without a bathroom break (she must have been unaware that we have outside Ring cameras). 5.) My beagle’s time sensitive medicine was sitting in his bowl hours after he was supposed to take it. 6.) Erika left our food pantry door wide open and then left the dogs alone. It’s a miracle they didn’t make a mess or poison themselves. 7.) It’s hard to get ahold of Erika. We sent her texts and even called at one point and received either a delayed response or no response at all. Erika doesn’t take care of dogs well, and I don’t want someone’s precious animal to be harmed in her care. Consider going with another sitter.

Erika was a great sitter for our little fur baby. The house was as we left it. We will use Erika again!

From a pet owner, I’d want to know their pet’s personality, routines, feeding schedule, medications, triggers, favorite activities, fears, quirks, training commands, and any special care needs. Also helpful: how they behave around strangers, other animals, children, and being alone.
These prices are for 1 dog.
