Loving & Reliable Pet Care

I’ve always had a love for animals and truly enjoy spending time with them. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, bunnies, fish, hamsters, turtles, and other pets, and I understand that every animal has their own personality, routine, and little quirks. I’m comfortable with walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, letting pets out, and simply giving them some extra love and attention while their family is away. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you leave for me. I currently care for pets as part of my regular work with a family, so I understand how important it is to know that your animals are safe and well cared for when you can’t be there. I also have experience administering medications and providing IV fluids to cats who require extra care. I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and plenty of attention. Whether your pet is energetic and wants to play, loves a good walk, or just wants some company and cuddles, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Most importantly, I want you to feel comfortable knowing your pets are in caring, dependable hands while you’re away. 🐾❤️

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in their own home by following their normal routines and the safety guidelines provided by their family. I make sure dogs are securely leashed and supervised, gates and doors are safely closed, and crates are used when they are part of the pet’s routine. For cats and other animals, I make sure they have a safe, comfortable space and that their food, water, litter, and surroundings are kept clean. I always follow specific instructions from the owner and never leave a pet in a situation where they could get hurt or escape.

Erin has been a pleasure to work with from our initial meet & greet & each day since. More importantly, my little guy took to her right away. Erin is communicative, caring & always on time. We lucked out with Erin.

Erin took excellent care of my cats while I was away. She sent me daily pictures and updates, played with the kitties, refilled their water, and cleaned their litterboxes. My cats absolutely love her! She’s reliable and communicates well. I highly recommend her!

I’ve known Erin for over 25 years, and I can honestly say she is one of the most responsible, caring, and trustworthy people I know. She has years of experience as a pet owner and has also cared for other people’s pets, so she understands how important it is to treat every animal with patience, love, and attention. Erin is dependable, compassionate, and someone I would feel completely comfortable trusting with my pets and my home. She genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. Any pet parent would be lucky to have Erin caring for their pets!

She has taken great care of our two dogs and four bunnies and has always been reliable and attentive. She makes sure everyone is fed, has fresh water, and gets the care and attention they need. The dogs get plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles, while the bunnies are cared for gently and their routines are kept up with. She is dependable, responsible, and clearly loves animals. We always feel comfortable knowing our pets are in good hands when she is caring for them.

Schedule

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available during the day and in the evenings for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I’m happy to work around each pet’s individual schedule and keep their routine as consistent as possible while their family is away. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to give each pet the time and care they deserve. I’m available for evening visits, but I do not offer overnight stays.

It’s important to know each pet’s personality, normal routine, feeding schedule, and any special needs ahead of time. I’d also like to know about medications, allergies, fears, how they do with other animals or children, and anything that may make them nervous or uncomfortable. Knowing their usual habits helps me keep their routine as normal as possible and make sure they feel safe and happy while their family is away.
