Experienced shelter volunteer!
Pet care experience
Hi! I'm Erin. I’m new to Jackson, but I’m certainly not new to dogs! I have about 7 years of experience volunteering at shelters in Chicagoland with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I just started volunteering at the shelter here as well. Additionally, I grew up with dogs my entire life and in the past few years have fostered several. In 2016, I adopted a pitbull, Rex, who was the absolute love of my life until he passed away unexpectedly after surgery. Last summer, I rescued my new boy, Congo. Rex had some reactivity issues and Congo is fearful, so between them and the shelter dogs I've worked with, I have vast experience with dogs with these kinds of special needs. My passion is for the bullies, but I truly would love any opportunity to hang out with any dog on my time off from teaching this summer. I am comfortable with all breeds and just love the company of dogs in general. I am a compassionate person who believes strongly in positive reinforcement and will provide all of the patience your pup needs. I’m off until the end of August, so my availability right now is wide open! Once school starts back up, I’ll be mostly available in weekends and breaks. Though I don’t offer boarding at this time, I will certainly treat your dog as my own and respect your home. Happy to provide references.
Reviews
Erin B. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Erin is amazing! She did a great job taking care of our Big Boy! She is an amazing dog sitter! She went above and beyond while caring for our boy! She brought him treats and won over his heart, which isnt easy! She is great with pit bulls (which is hard to find) and works well with them. She gave him extra games to learn new things. She is Awesome! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER!
Erin is just AMAZING with dogs!! It could not be more clear that she adores them and has so much fun with them. Erin also has tons of experience from volunteering at shelters, transporting dogs to rescue, being a foster mom, and a furever mom. Erin is one of the kindest, genuine, most trustworthy people that I know, and I am confident that your dog(s) will have a fabulous and safe time with her!

Information Erin B. would like to know about your pet
I just like to know a bit about their personality and any relevant likes/dislikes they have (handling, other animals, etc). I am super passionate about bully breeds but every dog I work with will be loved and treated like family.
A typical day
Happy to take your pup hiking, walking, swimming- you name it! I also am passionate about mental enrichment and positive reinforcement training and would be happy to introduce your dog to some fun games.
