About the caregiver

I’ve been an animal lover since I was 4 and have been taking care of my own dog for all 8 years of her life. I trained her as a puppy to be an obedient adult who knows where to potty and how to behave during off leash walking. She’s a sweetheart who loves kids and other dogs. Now that she is older, I’ve learned how to support her through her joint pain, delicate stomach and keeping her healthy despite low energy. Before Erika, I had taken care of 2 dogs while growing up. They were my dad’s Shih Tzus. I also raised my cat Gucci for the first 6 years of his life. See the pictures on my profile for a look at my four-legged fam over the years! I am currently on winter break from college, so I have plenty of free time to take care of your pets weekdays and weekends alike. For Drop In Services: If you’re at work or otherwise busy, no worries: your furry baby is in good hands! I’ll drop by to make sure he or she eats and gets some entertaining company. For Pet Sitting: I offer all types of services for your pet while I stay with them including brushing their teeth, feeding them and bathing them. All this aside from taking them for walks and playing with them, of course. I will gladly keep them comforted and provide cuddles while you’re away! On our walks, we will make sure to send you pictures, videos and details of our day so far. For Walking Services: I’ll come to you and make sure your pooch gets some exercise and pants of fresh air. Schedule a booking with me for 30 or 60 minute walks! I love to play with both dogs and cats. I find it especially funny when I get cats to chase string, lasers or other toys. I do enjoy dog parks, but I am aware that not all dogs like them and I’ll be happy to take your pup along a sidewalk instead. I recognize that dogs love the outside and are super curious so I make sure to let them to take their time sniffing and exploring on walks. Also, please let me know if I should know anything about your dogs behavior around other animals and humans. I can adjust the walking route and/or activities planned to fit your pup’s needs.
