Pet care experience
Your Pet's Perfect Pal!
Hi, I’m Erin! I live in Ridgefield in a prime commuter location right off Ethan Allen Highway, and I work from home - so your pup will get plenty of love and attention all day long. I’ve been dog sitting for over a year and have had pets my whole life, though I don’t currently have any of my own. That means when your dog stays with me, they’ll be my one and only focus - I only host one pup at a time to make sure they get undivided attention. My fiancé and I just moved into our home earlier this year, and I love taking advantage of the wonderful walking loop nearby. Your dog will enjoy several walks throughout the day, along with lots of playtime and snuggles inside. While our yard is unfenced, I make sure every walk and potty break is safe and supervised, and your dog will be leashed at all times when outside. I’m a huge dog lover and can’t wait to meet new furry friends. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, or just a buddy to hang out with, I’ll make sure they feel right at home during your work day!

Ratings and reviews
Erin is fantastic. She's been helping me take care of my brother's dog while he is in and out of the hospital. (Sadly, my dogs and my brother's do not get along). I had been rotating his and my dogs back and forth in a kennel (which I love), but finding Erin has been the best thing that could have happened in this difficult time. Duke get's daily walks, enjoys being home all day with Erin, and gets tons of play time, pets, and snuggles. I would definitely use her again.
Erin took great care of our Cavapoo Moose. She took him for lots of walks, spent time with him and fed him. Her house is nice, cozy and warm.
Erin was amazing! Communication was top notch and we got so many pupdates throughout the day of our boy having a blast. We are new to the area and it brings us so much peace of mind to know our guy will be loved and well taken care of when we are out of town. I would 100% recommend Erin to anyone looking for a kind, knowledgeable, and trusted person to take care of their dog. We will be booking with Erin again in the future. Thank you so much again!
Erin is reliable and communicates well. She sent notice when she arrived and when she left. Many pictures weee sent so I knew my cat was well taken care of.
Erin was amazing with my 3 year old Lab! She took him on long walks and let him cuddle with her while working. He was so tired out from all the activities with her that he slept for a day and a half! Erin sent pictures at least 2 times a day which I really appreciated as my family was constantly asking how Kobe was doing!
Oliver had a great time staying with Erin! We felt very comfortable with him there, will definitely be booking again.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When it comes to dog walking, I will happily take your dog for a walk up to 3x per day. Regular exercise, interactive play sessions, and mental stimulation are incorporated into their daily routine to keep them physically and mentally healthy. Caring for cats, whether in my own home or a client's, involves creating a serene and comfortable environment tailored to their unique needs and preferences. In my home, I designate quiet spaces where cats can retreat and feel secure, complete with cozy bedding and enriching toys. Regular play sessions and interactive toys help stimulate their minds and keep them physically active. I'm attentive to their dietary requirements, ensuring they receive nutritious meals at scheduled times. Litter boxes are kept clean and accessible, maintaining their hygiene and comfort.
A typical day
As a dedicated pet sitter, I prioritize ensuring that the pets I care for have a wonderful and enriching experience. From energetic dogs to playful cats, I tailor my activities to suit the individual needs and preferences of each furry friend. For active dogs, I love taking them on exhilarating walks in the park, playing fetch, or exploring new trails to stimulate their senses and keep them engaged. For more relaxed pets, cozy cuddle sessions, gentle grooming, and soothing music are on the agenda to create a calm and comfortable atmosphere. I believe in fostering a strong connection with each pet through positive reinforcement and affectionate interactions, ensuring that their time in my care is filled with joy, love, and plenty of tail wags or purrs.
