About: I’ve taken care of big and small dogs my whole life, my own dogs and family friends. I’ve also taken care of plenty cats the same way. I work at a pet resort called Suite Paws where I take care of puppies all day! I cannot get enough and would love to care for yours! I have a two part time job so I will be helping in between shifts, but I will be sure everyone’s pets get the attention they deserve. I will always follow all house rules and be sure to keep the pets safe and healthy, any need your pet has I will make sure they get it.


13. Erika D.
“Erika was amazing! Charlie loved her in fact, when I went to leave the house, he didn’t even acknowledge me. And it usually takes quite a while for him to warm up to anyone. But he could definitely feel her animal magic that she has! She was friendly professional, Amazin, so personable, and made me feel so at ease! It was like I knew her for a long time I would give her more than five stars for sure! She is above and beyond one of the best dog sitters that I’ve had for any dog! Also, it was a little bit late, coming home from the time that I told her, and she was so understanding and that was so appreciated! She is the best!”
