Safety, trust & environment

I keep a tidy house with many rescue cats and dogs. We have numerous litter boxes that are scooped or cleaned daily. People who come to my house are always shocked that I have cats. My dogs are kept as part of the family and have a large back yard to run around in.

Information Erin M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pets have any special needs or medications to be administered, and if they are free fed or have a set dinner time. I am used to administering any they may need. I currently prefer cats or smaller, lower energy, or senior dogs, and I will make sure that these dogs are not kept in the heat for too long.

A typical day

I enjoy spending time with both cats and dogs, playing games to stimulate them mentally, making sure they receive their medications and food on time. I can take the dogs to the dog park or around another park to keep them exercised and happy. If you are not opposed to it, I can also take them back to my house and let them wander around my yard (all of my dogs have their shots so my yard is safe; but your dog will not come into contact with mine)

Pets

Highly experienced in animal care.

Pet care experience

Not only have I owned and cared for dogs and cats my entire life, I've also fostered at the Richmond SPCA, RACC, and Sanctuary Rescue for a cumulative 13+ years. I'm highly experienced in animal behavior, nutrition, and medical needs. I do know animal CPR and I have no issue administering meds. I love animals and I am extremely familiar with their behavior. Please contact me to care for your pets so you can be stress free!

I work for a local animal rescue organization and have witnessed Erin's animal care in action. She is knowledgeable, experienced, and professional. I would absolutely trust her to take care of my animals.
