Pet care experience

Hi! I am a pet loving student who is excited to take care of your fur baby! I have had pets all my life, from hamsters, fish, and cats to dogs as big as saint bernards and great danes. I have experience administering medicine and dealing with seizures, as my saint bernard had epilepsy. I love spending time cuddling up with my pets and also playing with them outside.

Erika was on time and sent pictures daily! And my Lainey chose her to watch her. Dogs know best!

I have nothing but good things to say about Erika. I booked with her at the last minute (after my original sitter canceled) and I am so grateful I did! Erika was very communicative, responsive, and took great care of my girl while I was away across the country. She kept me updated throughout the stay with pictures - capturing some of my now favorite photos of her. Erika's schedule was flexible enough to extend the stay another night after my flight was canceled. When I returned, I could tell my girl was happy, healthy, and well taken care of, as well as my home. I look forward to booking with her in the future. Thank you, Erika!

Erika was amazing watching our fur babies! We booked short notice, about a week before our trip. She was quick to respond and set up a meet and greet to meet our babies. Winston loves her. She sent pictures and updates throughout out the stay and was very kind and had no problem adjusting the stay according to mine and my husbands plans that got pushed back a day. Winston and our kitties were very happy when we got home. I would recommend Erika to watch anyone's pets, she was great and extremely reliable!

Erika is great with my dog. She sent picture updates to me throughout the stay and my dog was quite happy when I returned. I would definitely have her watch him again.
