Availability

Pet care fits into my weekends and occasional evenings. I’m available Friday nights through Sunday for boarding or sitting, and I can also help with walks in the evenings during the week if requested. I’m a single mom who loves animals, and while I don’t have pets of my own right now, I enjoy giving them lots of care and attention. This is something I do on the side, so your pets will get my full focus when they’re with me.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting them in yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priority. I only offer weekend care so that your pets can have my full attention. As a single mom who has been raising my daughter on my own, I’ve learned how important responsibility, patience, and love are — and I bring that same care to every pet I watch. I’ll treat your fur baby with the same love and dedication I give my own child, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away.

Information Erin G. would like to know about your pet

Before sitting, I always like to know a few important things about your pets: what kinds of treats (if any) they’re allowed to have, how comfortable they are with the dog park or being around other dogs, and if there are any special routines, quirks, or accommodations they need. Every pet is unique, so knowing these details helps me give them the best care (and the happiest tail wags)!

A typical day

With mom and dad’s permission, I love taking pups on fun walks and even to the dog park so they can stretch their legs and make new friends. At home, I’m all about belly rubs, cuddle sessions, and playtime. Treats (if allowed) are always on the menu, and of course, I’ll make sure your fur baby gets plenty of love, comfort, and attention while you’re away

Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve always loved animals and grew up inspired by watching Steve Irwin. For the past 10 years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for my parents whenever they travel and recently have been helping some friends with dog walking. I may not have pets of my own right now, but I treat every animal with the same love and care I would if they were mine. I’m responsible, dependable, and enjoy making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away.

Erin was great! She was very clear on her availablity in her profile so I knew what she was offering was what I was looking for. She showed up and took care of my dog and kitten perfectly and they took to her very quickly. She was communicative and sent great pictures throughout her stay! I will definitely recommend her!

Pippy had a wonderful stay! Erin immediately greeted Pippy and made him feel welcomed. She sent me an update to let me know he had made himself at home and was cuddled on the couch, which immediately put my mind at ease. I could tell when I picked him up he was happy & had been very well cared for. ☺️ I definetely recommend Erin if you are looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter who will love your baby like her own. ❤️
