Pet care experience

Will water plants for free!

One of the best experiences of my life has been volunteering at the Oregon Humane Society for six years. I have much experience handling large, strong, dog-reactive, rowdy dogs, as well as timid dogs who need special coaxing. The humane society offers classes in dog training, dog handling, and grooming, which I have taken and learned effective measures for working with dogs and the patience, effort, and empathy it takes to work with them. I had a German Shepherd/Border Collie mix for a long time, who required a lot of attention and multiple walks a day which I had no trouble committing to, even at a young age. I was definitely one of the Dog Girls in elementary school, and I still have a big heart for all animals!

Safety, trust & environment

I am experienced in giving both dogs and cats insulin injections and pills. I'm highly familiar with the NW area of DC, and know of parks in that area for dogs that need a long time to stretch their legs and explore. For cats I can stay and play or sit with them, or leave them to do their cat-thing if they so desire.

Erin provided exceptional pet care for our cat and tortoise! She sent detailed daily updates and photos that assured us they were being well cared for. Erin also stepped in on a moments notice to feed a pregnant outdoor stray on our porch until help could be provided to the roving kitty. She ensured our ferns and houseplants were watered too. When we returned, food bowls and boxes were clean, and fresh water was in dishes. We highly recommend Erin and will definitely request her again.

Erin did such a great job! She kept us updated with photos and texts each time she stopped by, and also took great care of our plants while we were out of town. Highly recommend!

How old is your furry friend, what they might like to do for fun, can they have certain treats (allergies), do they enjoy playing with other dogs, are they scared/particularly aware of certain things, do they have a difficult habit that I should to be aware of. I don't have any breed preferences, I've pet sat everything from Great Pyrenees to trembling little Chihuahuas.
