Pet care experience
I have been a life-long, pet owner that formerly struggled with juggling all the responsibilities of maintaining a family and a career while desperately trying to enjoy life from time to time. I now have the opportunity to help those who struggle as I previously did. Despite the onset of the unfortunate pandemic, I am determined to continue being available to help other households with the responsibilities of their beloved, furry family members. I have extensive experience with many breeds of dogs, including huskies, beagles, American bull dogs...the list goes on and on. My experience also includes cats, birds, and a very special rat. I am a very loving, consistent, and reliable individual. I'm hoping I'm a good fit for you and your family so that I can assist in eliminating any scheduling conflicts that may arise regarding the care of their pets. Let's work together to establish a professional relationship that ultimately benefits each and every party involved. I am incredibly excited for the opportunity to do something I absolutely love while contributing to the cohesiveness of your day-to-day or week-to-week schedule. Contact me soon, and I guarantee you and your fluffy family member(s) won't be disappointed! I am a single mother of three children, so my schedule can be limited slightly, usually on certain weeks/weekends. I am almost always able to make any client's request work provided I have adequate notice. My three children and I generally do many of our activities outside (walks, hikes,bicycle rides), and the kids assist me with the care of the animals in a limited manner. The most important thing to take from this is that your fur-baby will have plenty of loving hands and attention while in our care. I believe the best care I can provide ultimately comes from the heart, and I genuinely have love for each and every dog, cat, bunny, etc. that I've ever watched. I like to stay very busy so my kids and I do as much exercise outdoors as we possibly can. My kids help out on the days I work by taking pets out for bathroom breaks and providing food, water, and quality time. I generally have walks scheduled throughout the week after work and all day on my days off. My schedule has recently and surprisingly opened up for dog walkings if you need someone. I follow the clients' instructions exactly unless I feel that my liability is too high and its too lax for my standards, in which case I will discuss the specific issue prior to committing to the job.
Reviews
My kitty lovesss Erin!! Highly recommend
Erin was a life saver! We were out of town and the sitter we originally hired didn't work out. Erin saved the day and was amazing with our dog who was very anxious that we were gone. She is such a pro! We highly recommend her.
Erin took great care of my home and my 2 big dogs while I was away for the weekend. Will definitely book her again!
Erin was awesome. She checked in on my kitty over the holidays, which was an enormous help. Will definitely look her up the next time I’m traveling!
About Erin B.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am a stickler for following the rules, and I prefer to maintain a level of care that mirrors the owner's day-to-day processes. I've found that adequate exercise and spending quality time are the most important duties to focus upon.
Information Erin B. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know whether a pet likes or dislikes being around children, other pets, and people; whether he or she has lots of energy or tends to be a couch potato; and if they enjoy busy environments or prefer quieter, more desolate spaces. I also need to be informed about any dietary requirements/preferences and any special medical needs. I honestly have no breed preferences, as I have yet to meet an animal I don't care for.
A typical day
I am very active, and I enjoy neighborhood walks, forest hikes, swimming (should the weather cooperate), playing catch and throwing frisbees, rainy day snuggles, teaching new tricks, short and long car rides. I'm open-minded and quite willing to try any activity based upon the animal's demeanour and the current environmental circumstances.

Availability
I have children and I integrate them in participating in the care of pets as frequently possible. However, depending on the challenge level of the client, as well as the time of day, I work independently with your pet. Based upon the circumstances, among other things, we will determine the best scenario for all parties involved.
