Experienced and dependable pet care
Pet care experience
I'm a full time, privately insured pet care provider. Your pets are my priority and my passion! A lifelong animal lover, I have been petsitting since I was 14 (now in my 40s). My employment experience includes the Allen Co. SPCA and La Cabreah Arabians, a private horse showing and breeding facility; I've volunteered for Indy Humane, IACC, Hamilton Humane and served as a board member for equine 501c3 nonprofit Friends of Ferdinand. I also have 14 years and 18+ foster dogs' worth of experience with retired racing greyhounds as an active volunteer foster home and home inspector for Greyhound Pets of America - Indianapolis. I have extensive experience with all ages, breeds, and sizes of dogs, cats, horses, saltwater & tropical fish, frogs, hamsters, lizards, hedgehogs, ferrets, and rabbits. ​ I am life-long lover of all animals with a special place in my heart for seniors. I come from a family tradition of loving and caring for animals - my favorite story of my grandmother is of her discovering a family of mice in their home, and her decision to care for them instead of much more popular sentiments of the day to the contrary! ​ Caring for animals will always be my top priority. I'm a highly organized, hard working, and dependable person here to help with your pet care needs, whether for occasional care while you're away, or for weekly recurring care. I am currently available for dog walks and drop-in services 7 days a week, whether for occasional care or for weekly recurring care which locks you in to your preferred times and days. I strive to care for your pets just as you would! During our meet and greet we'll go over your pet's routines and preferences, your expectations for top notch care, and my dog walking safety protocols (if relevant).
Reviews
Erin truly is THE BEST! I’ve had her look after my cat at least 30 times now and she has handled messes like lockouts, getting into treats, and accidents like a pro. I feel so comforted knowing she’s looking after Wally when I’m away and the pictures she sends are amazing. Could not recommend Erin more!
Thank you so much for watching Frosty! The detailed reports, adorable photos, and great communication allow me to feel at ease when I’m away. I know Frosty is in wonderful hands. Thank you for always being so responsive, too! We can’t thank you enough!
Erin did a great job with Bandit. I loved the pictures from the walk, and her attention to detail in our initial meeting was superb!
Thank you so much for checking in on Frosty! The peace of mind knowing that he is well taken care of is priceless. We appreciate you so much!

Information Erin T. would like to know about your pet
During the meet and greet, we'll discuss your pet's likes and dislikes, routines, and preferences. I'll also check to make sure I'm aware of your preferred veterinary services provider in case of an emergency.
A typical day
I'm happy to tailor your pet's walk or drop-in visit to their needs! Dog walks can be more vigorous, or more "stop 'n' sniff" according to your preference. I'm happy to offer play time indoors or out, tooth brushing services, coat brushing (your grooming tools, although I do have a Furminator, which I'm happy to bring as it can be sterilized between uses). If you have a shy pet, I'm happy to be a happy presence giving them space while tending their needs, just to let them know they're not alone while you're away.
