Fun & loving pet sitter
Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of dogs of almost every kind from 2 month year old puppies to dogs who are 15 since I was 18. Friends and family and even friends of friends have relied on me multiple times to walk, feed, play and most importantly make sure their pet feels loved and safe in their own home. I also have experience with cats, chameleons, fish, and rabbits.
Reviews
Unfortunately not my best experience with a pet sitter. She left them alone for long periods of time including overnight one weekend. I only know this because my neighbors complained about her arriving home at 4:30 am with her music blasting and I checked our video doorbell footage. This wasn’t the only evening she left them home alone most of the night. Even during the week there were days that she seemed to arrive home from work at 9 pm. I did hire someone to come in to let them out at lunchtime everyday as our dogs are used to people always being home. I feel that Erin took advantage of that and even asked me to hire someone to come in at lunch on the weekend. Our dogs seemed to be exhausted when we came home, I assume because of the stress. I’m sure Erin would be fine for short stays during the week but I will not use her again.
Erin is amazing. Hazel loved her. She stayed at our home for two nights. When we returned, everything was perfect. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, dependable person to care for their pet.
Erin was a great dog sitting for our lab with anxiety. Erin followed our directions, texted with any questions, and sent us updates and pictures. We would ask Erin to dog sit again in a heartbeat.
Erin was fantastic! When we first met, I could tell that our dog and house would be in great, loving hands with her and I was right. Everything was in tip top shape when we returned. Thank you Erin!!!

No matter what the clients yard looks like, my eyes will be on the dogs at all time when outside because you never know what could happen to them in that split second you turn away. I will follow all instructions of clients on what they do with the pets when they leave the house or go to bed at night. Doors will always be locked even when inside the house. People always say make yourself at home, well in my home I make sure it stays clean and respect all my items so I will do the same for yours.
Information Erin B. would like to know about your pet
If your dog has any special needs, specific medications or allergies those are major things to know ahead of time. If your dog does not get along with other dogs that is also important so I know not to take them to parks.
A typical day
When watching your dogs I will make sure we take at least two walks a day. We will also be playing and running around outside in the yard (if it’s gates in) or inside if it’s raining. Most dogs are comfortable in their neighborhood for walking. If the dogs are extra friendly I would take them to a park in a nearby town where I know it’s safe with other friendly dogs.

Availability
I’m currently working full time as a teachers assistant/aid at an elementary school so hours are 8:30-3:30. Always willing to get up extra early to take pets for a walk in the morning. I would also take them for a walk in the afternoon when I get home.
