Hi everyone, welcome to my page! My name is Erin and I’m 28 years old. I work from home full time for a healthcare company, allowing me full availability for a flexible schedule. My dogs name is Benson, he is a 6 year old mini Australian Shepard who loves playing, eating, walks, and most importantly cuddles. I have owned dogs my entire life and understand the importance of maintaining a schedule for food, walks, and medications. I work 7:45am-4:30pm, so I usually take Ben on a morning walk around 6:30-7am and then feed him around 7:30am. We go on a walk or play in the backyard on my lunch break, and then he eats around 5:30-6pm with another walk in the evening. That being said, I can oversee whatever schedule your dog is used to to ensure their comfort while you are away. I am clean and respectful, I will treat your home as my own and treat your animal as my own while you are away. I send tons of pictures and communicate daily, as I would want if I was out of town. Honestly, the biggest perk that I have to offer is my work schedule. Being home all day allows dogs to feel more comfortable and taken care of. They open up to me quickly. I do have a few requirements on my end that are non-negotiable: 1. A meet and greet must be completed prior to the booking deadline. This is for my personal safety and comfort, as well as yours and your animal. I will deny any request in which I am not allowed to meet you prior. 2. You must have an active veterinarian and information for your pet available. I have been fortunate to never have a situation where I’ve needed it, but I will always be sure it is readily available in case I ever did. 3. You must have a pull out sofa or room for me to stay in if the stay is longer than 3 days. As much as I adore watching dogs, more than 3 days on a couch becomes quite uncomfortable. (Don’t worry I’ll do all the sheets and laundry prior to the visit ending). If you are comfortable with Benson coming with me and your dog loves other dogs, that’s even better! If not, my roommates or Ma are always available to watch him. If you have any questions please let me know! Erin
