Highlights
Pet care experience
Owner away? I walk, stay, and play!
I'm an animal lover and pet whisperer. Even the shyest of the shy come my way. I grew up with dogs as a kid and took care of all of our neighbors pets. As an adult I've been consistent cat Mom. When my beloved Smash passed at the age of 13, I had to rescue not one, but two more. They, like Smash, are my babies!! I treat them like and consider them my children! Since moving to the neighborhood, I have taken up watching the neighbors' cat while they're away and walking the next door neighbor's puppy while he's at work. I have also spent many long weekends cat sitting and in-home dog-sitting for various friends throughout the past 10 years since I've lived in the Seattle area.

Safety, trust & environment
The safety, security, and health of your beloved animals is of the uptmost importance to me! I know what it's like to be away from your babies and worry how they are doing. I will follow every care instruction provided and keep you updated with photos, videos, and communication on how they are doing while you are away! I always make sure doors, gates, and windows are never left open, unlocked, or ajar for an accidental escape; that all leashes and collars are properly secured; if crates or carriers are required, I too, make sure that they are properly secured so your baby is safe and secure during travel. I will always be sure to double check something before putting the safety of your animals at risk! While walking dogs, my attention is completely on them and our surroundings! I truly enjoy being in the present and the quality time I get to spend with your loved ones! I make sure that they are safe from other animals and environmental hazards like toxic plants or materials that could harm them! It is their time and I try my best to make it as enjoyable for them as possible and focus my time and energy to meet your pets needs!
Ratings and reviews
Erin is amazing! She and my dog Oogi really bonded while I was away and Erin communicated extremely well. She sent lots of updates, pictures, and made sure to check-in when something Oogi did seemed odd. Erin cares like your pet is her own. As an anxious dog mom, she made me feel very comfortable leaving Oogi with her. Plus my apartment was spotless when I came home. Ugh, a dream. Couldn’t recommend Erin enough!
Erin took excellent care of my babies! She provided consistent communication and left the house in great shape. I would definitely recommend.
Awesome, quality time with my good boy, Caleb.
Erin is a fantastic sitter! She has gone above and beyond to make sure my cat and apartment are in fantastic shape while I’m gone. I’m grateful for her communication and reliability, and feel much more comfortable knowing she is there taking care of things.
Erin was great! She took great care of my cat and left my home in amazing shape. Looking forward to booking her again.
Erin did a wonderful job with my dog! She is very responsible and communicative

Schedule
I'm a pretty active person with a pretty flexible schedule. Animals are and have always been my highest priority! They are such special gifts, and each one has its own personality and needs! Although drop-ins and walks are typically scheduled for 30 minutes, I almost always take extra time to spend with and give more attention and love to each animal.

- Please let me know if your dogs or cats have any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. If there are any dietary restrictions, concerns, allergies, or medical issues that I should be aware of. I will be sure to pay special attention to these needs, concerns, and requirements!
