I am a work from home freelancer, so as long as I have internet access, I can do my work from pretty much anywhere - which means that I can provide care and adequate supervision for your pets. Though I do have a few cats myself, my roommate watches her while I am on an assignment, so there are no distractions that will get in the way of my caring for your animal(s).

Safety, trust & environment

I prefer having meet and greets prior to assignments, so that I can ask a list of questions I have prepared in advance regarding your animal's required care. For example, I may ask about: - Temperament - Feeding Schedule - Medications - Allowed on Furniture? - Emergency Contacts & What to Do in the event of an Emergency - Potty Break Schedule

Information Erin V. would like to know about your pet

Most of the questions I ask are listed above, but I am always interested in an animals temperament first and foremost. I also will want to know what routines they keep so I can try and stick to those as best as possible. I know keeping to their normal schedule will help with any anxieties they may or may not have.

A typical day

I love to cuddle and play with the animals in my care. For a dog we may play fetch, or run around outside got a bit. For a feline companion i enjoy being brushing them or playing with toys attached to strings.

Former Cat Foster, Lover of Animals

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Erin (or Rin to my friends) and I love animals of all kinds. I would be absolutely honored to have the opportunity to take care of your fur baby for you. I have an extensive history of pet sitting, fostering, rehabilitation, and minor training. I was raised by a k9 union military police officer and was taught how to train and care for dogs at an early age. During my adult years I fell in love with cats and have been involved with many rescues and foster groups over the years. I even had the joy of being a caretaker for a colony of cats several years ago. I've also harness trained cats and gotten them trained to go on walks too. I do freelance work from home, so as long as I have access to the Internet I'm able to work from anywhere, giving me plenty of time to spoil your fur baby.

Rin was great! Our cat was very comfortable and well taken care of. Rin was very communicative with me and I definitely recommend their services including house sitting. We felt secure in knowing our cat and home was in good hands

Highly recommend Rin for pet-care. During my meeting with him to talk logistics and show him where everything he'd need for my two cat's care, he spent a good amount of time sitting with my cats and allowing them to become acclimated - which happened way faster than I would've expected. He asked many questions about their care during the meeting, which I really really appreciated. When I left for my trip, he made sure to keep me updated with pictures, which I also really appreciated, since I could see how well my Minako & Mika were being cared for. Recommend Rin to the Rover Community 100%.
