Availability

My schedule is flexible, but not necessarily consistent, so advanced notice is really helpful for planning purposes so that I may give your pet the attention they deserve. My work is usually remote, or at the very least flexible enough to make my own schedule when it comes to being in the office vs working from home.

Safety, trust & environment

I only walk dogs on leashes because our yard is unfenced and we live in a neighborhood with many dogs that walk by daily. Dogs are welcome in my apartment and on my furniture. I will go to dog parks upon request, otherwise your dog will not be let off leash around other animals.

Information Erin J. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preference for dogs. I would like to know about the dog's size, health conditions, medications, standard feeding and exercise routine, and any habits like chewing shoes or peeing indoors.

A typical day

I love taking dogs to parks so they can play in the grass and get fresh air. I'm fairly flexible on location, but I'd likely not stray too far from the dog's home. I used to play softball, frisbee, and soccer, so if your dog likes to chase balls I am game to play.

Location

Providence, RI

Erin J.'s Neighborhood

Flexible schedule. Near local park.

Pet care experience

My family had 2-3 dogs and cats as pets all throughout my childhood and so I've grown up caring for animals. I am trained in basic animal first aid and we live down the street of the local vet. I'm an active and athletic young adult, so I am happy to run and play with your dog! I love all dogs small and large and can cater to whatever their needs. I'm flexible in terms of hours, days, and frequency. I'm a finishing my PhD at University of Rhode Island Graduate School of Oceanography, so usually my work is remote (lots of writing!). My fiancé and I live near parks in a quiet neighborhood of Providence and regularly care for our friends' pets when they're out of town. Our place has a decent yard (unfenced), but many folks walk their dogs all around the neighborhood and I've never had an issue.

The Rover site was perfect. We live on an island and Rover gave us 3 candidates to pick from for a 2 week stay in our house. Erin was perfect. Took excellent care of our dogs, walked them regularly, watered our plants, collected mail. She left the place spotless. Five stars to Erin. We gave her some extra money for the added work outside of dog sitting. Rover was a great find.

As well as being a pleasant person and trustworthy, Erin took great care of my elderly pooch. I highly recommend as she has years of experience caring for dogs.

Erin is the most loving animal caregiver I know! Not only does she have so much experience taking care of all of the many animals she has of her own, she is so welcoming and caring towards other people's pets as well. She has taken care of both of my dogs and both of my cats many times when I have been on vacation and has done a wonderful job each time. My fur babies are always happy and exercised when I return. I highly recommend Erin to watch over your pets! My pups love her!

Working alongside Erin, I was lucky enough to benefit from her preparedness, good nature, and flexibility. Erin Jones is responsible, energetic, and hard working. When working with animals, Erin shows a natural talent as well as a sincere commitment to creating a happy and healthy experience for the animal.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
