Animal Loving graduate Student

Pet care experience

Hello! I am currently a student at the University of New England for my masters degree.I have owned dogs/cats/chickens/ducks/turkeys/you name it for the past 15 years. I have taken care of multiple different dogs for overnights many times, house sat, and completed many drop in visits for cats, or dogs throughout the day. Being a college student I would love to continue my contact with pets! I have experience with dogs of almost all sizes except very small dogs (under 15 lbs). I also have experience with giving medicine administration to special needs dogs and cats. I love all animals and would love to spend time with yours!

Erin took such wonderful care of our fur babies and home! She was very communicative and showed up and left exactly when agreed upon. She took my dog for multiple walks every day, even though she didn't have to. She sent pics of them cuddling with her, and it was clear they adored her. My dog and cats were very happy while we were gone, and I wouldn't hesitate to have her house sit for us again.

Information Erin S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know any dietary restrictions, feeding schedule, medications needed, hygiene needs, any known behavioral issues, and any other information desired by the owner.

A typical day

I play rugby and love to throw frisbee, I love taking dogs on walks along local trails (as I am originally from Connecticut, I know the best places!) and to big parks if they enjoy playing catch with frisbees or balls. If your cat enjoys walks too (like mine) I’m happy to take them out as well!

Availability

I am currently studying for my national certification exam following grad school so I have a lot of free time throughout the day to spend with your animals! I typically go on one or two longer walks per day, sometimes a run, and would gladly bring your dog/cat along. I love to hike with friends, so if your dog is a social butterfly, they would get a lot of outdoor time with me!
