Pet care experience

Your pets' home away from home!

Hello pet parents! I'm Erin and have 35+ years experience caring for pets! ALL kinds! I am looking to pet sit for you. Why?! Because I love animals! I have volunteered at shelters, wildlife refuges, PetSmart, and fostered for All Breeds Rescue, Save A Pet, and Troy Animal Rescue Project. I was alao the VP of Enterprise's Bark Park (until we turned it over to the city). I serve as a board member for SOS Animal Shelter in Enterprise. I have taken care of family and friends' pets for as long as I can remember. I am very reliable, clean, hard working, and most importantly FRIENDLY and loving to animals. As a pet lover and pet mama, I know how difficult it is to find TRUSTWORTHY pet care during TDYs, vacations, last minute work trips, etc. I would be more than happy to take care of your pets as if they were my own! About my yard: I have a large fenced backyard with plenty of room for dogs to run! I also have a dedicated pet entrance! I built a small courtyard off my home as an additional safety feature for my own pets. Additional safety fact: I had a landscape designer replace all my plants and trees with pet safe ones! 100% safe yard! Bonus: I'll send you pictures and videos as often as you'd like! I've found that parents really love that part!

Erin is great! I would recommend her to anyone. She takes the time to learn your pet's habits and personality. She treated our baby like her own!

Thanks so much for taking care of my 4-legged sweetie. I love the pictures and daily communication. I will definitely book with you again.

Wow! Our poodle has had 2 sleepovers with Penny & Erin both times we were given updates and our poodle has an absolute blast. Penny greeted and welcomed us when we first arrived and was sure to show our poodle the ropes. The puppy playroom is amazing. There is no doubt in my mind that my poodle was well taken care of while we were away. Definitely a home away from home. On our second visit, our poodle knew exactly where we were when we opened the door and was sooooo very happy to see her friends again. Highly recommend Erin & Penny. Officially our go to person & cavapoo for when we must be away and our poodle can’t join ❤️

Erin watched my 10week old miniature dachshund in her home for me and I felt completely relaxed about leaving my Emma in Erin’s care. She send me pictures and videos and even continued working on her potty training. Emma seemed very comfortable with Erin and got spoiled rotten. I would definitely recommend her and will use her again in the future.

Erin is hands down the best dog sitter we have ever had. Erin always went above and beyond when taking care of our miniature schnauzer. She is super easy to get ahold of and sends tons of pictures and videos while we're away. It really puts us at ease to know our dog is in good hands. I think he honestly likes her house more than ours now. haha. She also takes meticulous notes so that next time she remembers whether or not he can use the doggy door, his food schedule, and whether he sleeps better on the bed or in the kennel. She also refunded us a day when bad weather forced us to come home early before we even made it back. You can tell she loves all animals and is not just in it for the money. We're sorry to go and have to find someone new =(

I hired Erin to watch my cats when I went on vacation. I did not have any friends to help and it is very expensive to board them. It was nice to know that they could stay in the comfort of their normal surroundings and Erin would come to them (less stress for all of us!) She stopped by daily to spend time with them, take care of the litter boxes and check their food and water. I got pictures every day from her with my kitties smiling faces. I would absolutely hire Erin again!

A typical day

We will watch a lot of Bravo and the Housewives. I’ll turn on a few episodes of Jeopardy so they will actually learn something! We will also spend time in the backyard and in the hammock. Unless someone wants to hang out in the hanging egg chair. They are welcome to do that, too! Your dog's sleeping arrangement: Anywhere! My bed, the floor, the couch, their kennel. Whatever makes them happy!
