Your Best Friend’s New Best Friend!

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Erin, welcome to my profile :-) Thanks for taking the time to read a little about me and your options for the best pet care in Reno. I’ve taken care of our family animals since I was in elementary school. We’ve had big dogs, small dogs, cats, rodents and everything in between. In college I house sat for many years primarily for one couple who had an older black lab (requiring medications and some special care) for months at a time until she passed. I’ve also sat for many other pet parents in the Reno area over the years. Building relationships is very important to me with people and with your fur babies. My own fur baby passed in 2020 at 17...he had the best of the best and that’s what your lil guy/girl deserves too. I have a servant’s heart to love your fur baby as my own and care for them (and your home) as well as you do. Animals are my passion and my pet care business is my life’s purpose to provide professional loving care for your pets! I am a LICENSED, BONDED and INSURED reliable professional as well as a member of Pet Sitters International. Please see below on fee explainations and don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! Meet & Greets are free :-) Discounts for 3 or more walks per week. Drop-in Visits/Dog Walks: 20-30 min $32 35-45 min $42 50-60 min $52 *Most clients prefer 3-4 visits per day for vacation sits (without overnights) Overnights (8-10 hours) $100 *Drop-in visits are booked in addition for daytime walk/potty breaks Full-time house sitting $250/day *Charged in 24-hr periods, great for pets with medication/frequent potty breaks/additional attention & loves! Guaranteed a maximum of 4 hours between check-ins and can be flexible if more frequency required. Would love to connect and see how I can best serve you and your family!

Erin was absolutely wonderful with our pup, Mila. Leaving for 10 days felt a bit stressful but Erin made it super easy. We got photos of Mila while we were traveling and knew that she was getting good exercise and pets. Mila is a bit anxious but Erin was great with her and the updates we received helped us know she was in good hands. Will definitely work with Erin again!

Erin was amazing! Our very shy, anxious pup immediately felt comfortable in her home and was wagging her tail. We felt assured knowing she was in good hands!

Extremely friendly and truly cares about the dogs she spends time with. My dog had so much fun with her and it really showed.

Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to offer In-home care because I have found pets are typically more comfortable, relaxed and happy in their own environment. If necessary also happy to care for your fur baby at my house. I have a great dog park a few blocks away and I live in an amazing centrally located neighborhood. Even shy, reserved or nervous pets quickly feel at ease with my peaceful grounded demeanor, upbeat attentive care and consistent positive reinforcement.

Information Erin S. would like to know about your pet

We will schedule a free meet & greet for new clients prior to booking services to get to know each other and go over things such as: Name, personality, likes/dislikes, feeding/potty schedule, treats, medications, allergies, personality traits, interaction with other animals/people, history and health needs, any special instructions and insight into your pet’s world. Happy to accommodate any special requests and instructions. Attention to detail is my specialty as well as consistency and flexible schedule to make things as easy and convenient as possible.

A typical day

Part of my day is dedicated to house sitting and client visits/walks (usually 2-6 hours) and working from home. It’s a great balance because I love being active wether letting the littles out during your work day, feeding hungry bellies or getting them out to stretch their legs. I love giving animals my full attention and have always had a special connection with them. It’s so fun to learn their unique personalities, how they communicate and play! Communication is key for peace of mind knowing your babies are in great hands with regular updates and pics.

Dog parents: Whether we have an adventure to the dog park, river, or around the neighborhood your pup sets the pace and direction for walks. Stopping to ‘smell the roses’ as we say for dogs is essential to their well-being connecting them to what’s happening in their environment and lowering stress levels. If you prefer to stay in the yard playing fetch, keep away, tug-of-war or find it are favorites. Lots of cuddles & belly rubs too! Cat parents: I enjoy getting your kitty active with ribbons, hair ties, pens, play mice or whatever they like and spoiling then with a little tuna once in a while! If they are a bit shy or reserved happy to let them come to me in their own time as well. Caring for your fur babies and home is my primary focus - I am currently available to walk, feed, care for your pet(s) throughout the day for drop-in visits as well as overnight stays & full-time house sitting. I also work from home and can be available/flexible for your pets care needs.
