Information Erin M. would like to know about your pet

Sharing your pet's routine, how they like to be approached, favorite spots or ways to receive pets/affection, and anything particular to them is helpful and appreciated. I want to ensure they feel safe and cared for on day one.

A typical day

Working from home allows me to give pets plenty of companionship and play time. I love getting to know each pet and finding ways to exercise or engage that match their personality and needs. I enjoy walking to nearby parks, playing with toys, fetch or "tag", talking and giving lots of attention and affection to pets who enjoy it.

Pet care experience

I've loved and cared for pets most of my life, including my own pets: Medium & large-sized dogs: Jack Russell Terrier & 65 lb mixed-breed pup (Labrador, Golden Retriever, Great Pyrenees, American Bull Dog) Cat: Cared for his entire life, from kitten-hood through maturity I've also been a dog foster parent and pet sitter for friends. I’m confident caring for dogs and cats with special needs after tending to each of my own pets’ conditions (feline kidney disease, canine anxiety, canine cancer). I miss having a pet of my own to care for, and am ready to share my experience and love with your pets!

Erin (and family 😊) were wonderful with Hazel. She can be a high energy greeter and the meet and greeent well. You can tell right away that the are experienced with dogs by the questions and approach. Hazel was living her best pupper life while staying with Erin. I highly recommend her especially if you like pics of your baby while you are separated.

Erin is such a delight! She's very gentle and sweet, yet firm and protective when necessary. I'd recommend Erin to anyone looking for a responsible pet friend.
