About: Hello everyone! I’m happy to be of service for you and your animals. I have many years of experience with dogs. I grew up with animals in my childhood home and am very comfortable with animals of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I have trained, raised and cared for several dogs myself. Daisy was a golden retriever, Zoe was my golden rough collie mutt, Molly was my 10-lb mutt, Charlie was my very sick mutt, Jess was my hyper husky blue heeler mutt, and now I have Frida. Frida is a sweet girl who loves to work. She is a border collie Australian Shepard mutt who came with me from ND. We are working on learning tricks and trying our hand at herding. Yes when I am with your dog we will work on basic obedience, manners, games, and tricks if you should like. I also have some experience with cats and would love more experience. I fostered a very sick kitten last year and have been around lots of friends’ and families’ cats. If there should be other animals that I have not worked with before, I would be happy to learn how to do so. And I would take my time to ensure I follow your care instructions thoroughly. Looking forward to helping you while you are away! Services in your home - you can rest assured knowing you have an extremely responsible and dependable person in your space. I will be respectful of your things and wishes. I will take extra care to follow your instructions precisely. I do have a dog of my own, which presents a unique opportunity. I can offer you a significantly lower rate if you want me to stay in your home and you allow Frida to be with me. Otherwise she will be kenneled in the car while I am in your home (if you are wanting me to spend the night in your home). I realize most people will not want this, but I wanted to throw it out there as an option for you. Services in my home - Dogs are allowed on the furniture and bed. They will have structure, routine, and lots of love. Please bring your kennel. If you do not have one, I have a wire kennel that they will use while here. I do kennel Frida when I have to leave the house and cannot take her with me. Your dog will enjoy lots of play time with Frida. We have a six foot fence and dogs will always be supervised while we are outside. Frida and I also really enjoy our walks and your dog would be one of the pack. Yes, I do require a meet and greet to learn all about your animal before I will accept a booking. Thank you for understanding. Love, Erin and Frida 💕 I am currently working part time, so lots of time to watch your animals and love on them. I would love to be able to watch your pets full time. So I am working on filling up my calendar. Let’s see where this can take me. Currently, Frida and I walk daily and it would be awesome to take a dog friend with us! Also, I am currently watching pets for people out of town. I go over in the morning to say hello to the cats, change water, fill food, clean litter box, and make sure they have optimal viewing spots by the windows to watch the birds. Then I return at night for play time, water plants, and make sure I repeat everything from the morning. I’d love to care for yours while you are away too! In my home I have a six foot fenced yard and a border collie policing the yard haha. I have one large wire kennel and one medium sized wire kennel that will house your dog should I need to run a quick errand. When I am in your home, I will be responsible and respectful. I will follow your house rules and keep your babies safe, loved, and cared for.
