Pet care experience
Hello! I'm Erin and I LIVE for dogs (and animals in general). My undergrad was in Animal Sciences from OSU with an option in Animal Behavior. My first job working with animals was in a dog shelter I was about 12 years old and I've been smitten with dogs ever since. In addition to pet sitting, I work with a local vet and as a certified dog trainer. While I do have to work outside the home sometimes, your pets will be the highest of priorities while under my care. I live in a good neighborhood in Hillsboro, Oregon. I live in an apartment complex, but that doesn’t stop me from watching your pets! I do have a balcony but it is big enough for your dog(s) to come hang with me while they are here. The dogs will have access to water, beds and toys at all times. We offer treats for good behavior and a snack at around 2pm. If your dog loves to play then I'm the sitter for them! Let me know ahead of time if your dog has any allergies or triggers for aggression to watch out for! I'm also comfortable administering medication if your pet has special needs.
Reviews
Erin was amazing! Not only took great care of our pup while we were gone, left the house clean and tidy, but helped us out last minute when our travel home plans unexpectedly extended past our sitter dates. She saved us big time and we are so incredibly grateful!! Responsible, respectful, trustworthy, fun, personable, flexible, dedicated. A true animal lover, and we can’t wait to book her again in the future to watch our pup. Thank you, Erin!!
Erin was very communicative and flexible when she dropped in to check on our cat while we were gone. She made us feel a lot better about leaving our cat for a few days!
Erin was very responsive whenever I texted her. We appreciated her so much for taking care of our furbies while we were away! They looked happy and healthy when we came back! Thank you Erin!
Etin was absolutely great with JinJin ! She was flexible professional gave us insights on training very reliable dependable and super nice? I will trust her with my furbaby anyday!

I try my absolute best to try and take care of your pets as my own. My amazing fiancée knows that I do this for work and helps me with my own animals care so I can focus on your fur baby!
Home
Information Erin D. would like to know about your pet
I just need the simple details: allergies, normal routines for your pet, what are the nono's. Also I do need to know if your dog is leash reactive or dog reactive, as my own dog is almost always my companion.
A typical day
I will usually do walks around the neighborhood where you live. I will also take dogs on a hike or to the dog park with your permission. Also I do like to play fetch a lot with dogs. (Please let me know if your dog cannot be off-leash or has leash reactivity.)

I am currently working as a vet receptionist at a walk-in vet clinic. My shifts starts at 8am and goes anywhere from 6:30pm to 9pm. I do check on your animal (s) during my lunch break (~12:00pm to 2:00pm). This may be changing soon but that is TBD.
