I am working towards attending grad school and will be in school in Spring 2026, but love the flexibility and love that comes with looking after animals and being outside. I think it'd be so fun to get to know more animals out there 🫶🩷

Safety, trust & environment

I believe it's important to meet beforehand in order for your pet to feel comfortable and familiar with me. I also believe it's important to ask the right questions so there's less room for mistakes on my end as I want to provide the best service I can. I have a list of questions ready to go for when that time comes😌 I hope to put your mind at ease 💛

Information Eryka A. would like to know about your pet

I'd like to know if your pet has any medical concerns like allergies, rashes, anything they may be struggling with so that I can keep in mind. Also if they have and listen to their recall / name being called, and if there's any triggers I should look out for on walks (cats, kids, squirrels, etc.). And if they've taken walks with new people before and their reaction then. Plus more, but these are the biggest questions from me

A typical day

I'd ask what their pets favorite toys and games are and find different ways to engage them in play (indoors or outdoors). That gives them the chance to expel the energy they may have built up. Plus consistent verbal affirmation/affection so that your pet can feel comfortable with me too

Pet care experience

I've had dogs, cats, and fish since I was 9 years old. I love learning about what makes each animal unique and their needs 🩷 they deserve to have that level of care and attention. I used to work at an outdoor education camp where I was a teacher, and also the main caretaker for our friendly reptiles (we had them for educational purposes). I love working with all sorts of animals, and it truly emphasizes my need to learn about what makes each animal unique. I am more than willing to do whatever you believe is best for your situation and your fur baby. I hope I get to meet more amazing animals in the area❤️

Eryka did an amazing job taking care of Miles and Chase! I am especially grateful for her flexibility, as she stepped in at the last minute when I really needed the help. The dogs were incredibly well cared for and they looked so happy and content. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving pet sitter!

Eryka was very understanding, responsive, and followed our needs for our fairly high-needs dogs. She reached out with anything she had doubts on and we know the pets were well cared for and our expectations for them were followed. We are very grateful for her and hope to have her back in the future!

Eryka has been a lifesaver!! She’s genuinely caring for my 2 kitties. She is especially patient with my mischievous boy kitty Simba, while easy going Bella gets lots of TLCs. She goes above and beyond her duties to take care of other tasks on hand around the house for me, which I’m really thankful for. Eryka also gives me updates and pictures regularly. I’m more than delighted and feel very comfortable with her taking care of my beloved pets. She will definitely be the one I’ll be contacting for any future needs!! 5 stars for overall excellence!! 👍😃

Eryca was so great with our Benji! She took great care with him, was patient and professional! We’d recommend her to anyone who needs help with their pup!
