Erika was beyond kind and professional with pet sitting for me. She is the best pet sitter I’ve had and would absolutely hire her again. 10/10!

I am thrilled that Erika takes my elderly dog (Chica Bear) for her walks. Erika is prompt and reliable. I love how Erika pays attention to detail. especially as Chica is also blind. I love my dog with all my heart and I am happy to know that she cares for my Chica and takes her time walking her. Thank you Erika

Details: 1 dog • 10 years or older • Medium (26 - 40 lbs) • Small (16 - 25 lbs) • 30 minutes (standard) • Prefer a private walk for my dog(s) alone • My home, venue, etc.

Erika is a wonderful pet person! She’s super flexible, responsive, reliable, conscientious, my dog and cat love her. She does the little extras too like filling the water bowls, which I so appreciate. I totally trust her and feel so lucky to have found her for my dog walking and pet care. Knowing that she’ll show up and take excellent care of my pets has given me a lot of flexibility back into my life! I can’t recommend Erika enough!!!

Erika is a wonderful pet sitter. She recently looked after my three cats. She gave me updates twice a day after her visits. I felt very comfortable with leaving my pets in her care. She even brought in and unpacked an order from Chewy that arrived during my absence! I highly recommend Erika and will hire her again the next time I travel.

Details: Cat • 3 pets • Giving food and water • Providing companionship • Changing litter or bedding • Short visit (30 minutes) • Two times a day • My home, venue, etc.
