Will love them more than myself!
Pet care experience
I am a young professional working with animals during my free time. I absolutely love all types of animals, but dogs and cats are my true specialty! I was the go-to pet-sitter in my neighborhood and the surrounding area from the age of 10 and will still get requests from old neighbors if I'm home on any holiday break. I've never had trouble with animals feeling safe around me and I'm not afraid of the big dogs. They're usually just big babies! I only ask that you are honest about your pets needs. For example, if your dog needs space around new people or certain things (other animals) make them aggressive, please let me know and we can work around it. I am looking forward to meeting you and your pets!
Reviews
Always a pleasure to have Erika watch my puppy, 5/5 would recommend her to anyone!
Erika was great with taking care of my puppy while I was out of town. Lots of play time for the pup and updates and pictures for me. Will definitely be requesting her again!
My dog loved Erika and I will definitely use her the next time I go out of town! We checked in daily and all was well. I never had to worry that my dog wasn’t getting the absolute best care.

Safety, trust & environment
I like to let animals approach me first, but have found that talking to them and generally giving them attention while reading their body language is a safe bet.
Information Erika S. would like to know about your pet
Before sitting, I'd like to know the needs of your animals and what I can do to accommodate them. If they are shy around new people, dog or leash aggressive, generally unfriendly, just let me know and I'll make sure to give them any space or time they need.
A typical day
Depends on the area, but green space is the most important! I love walking to get some fresh air and new smells for your dog(s). For cats, any string will do for entertainment, but certainly depends on the cat!

Availability
I work remotely, so I can hang out with pets for the majority of the day except for when I am taking care of my own dogs.
