Hi! I am a passionate animal lover and regular pet sitter.
I have a 15-year-old rescue cat, named Sully, who is just a delight. He's learnt how to high five, sit, leap amongst other tasks and has really come into his own since being in my care. I've been around animals my whole life; having cats, dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, birds (you name it) in my family home.
I have become many friends go-to when it comes to pet sitting in general; from dog walking, cat sitting, small pet feedings to just cuddles and company or behavioural support (I've had experience with nervous, aggressive and boisterous pets). As well as this, I have gained diplomas in Feline Behaviour and Psychology, Dog Walking and Pet Home-Sitting Professional and Canine Health and First Aid. I love all part-time pets as dearly as I do my Sully and treat them all with the respect and understanding that they undoubtedly deserve.
I have been an active sitter for over four years and have regular clients who confirm my professional and friendly attitude toward my work. They receive regular updates from me and always confirm how happy their pets are upon their return.
I will always pet sit at the home of the animal. Mainly because of Sully and not wishing to interrupt his environment but also because I don't want to cause that pet any more stress than they have in not being around their owner for a period of time.
This means that I will travel to your home at the times and dates that you wish me to and always leave the property as I found it after ensuring that I've spent a minimum of 40 minutes with your pet - I will feed, clean, walk (if required) and follow any other general instructions and then use the last of the allocated time to get to know your pet and keep them company.
Should you need a full day/overnight stay, we can discuss the requirements on a case by case basis, but I'm happy to stay over at the home of the pet and can travel outside of my catchment area (for an extra fee at 20p per mile over 2.5m).
If you have any queries, I'm happy to help! I'll always try and reply to any questions within an hour (except on marked unavailable days). Thanks and I hope to speak to you soon!
Full refund if canceled before 12:00 p.m. one day before the booking, 50% refund afterward.
No refund is payable if the booking is canceled on or after the start date.
Note: All times are based on the sitter’s time zone
We were away for 3 weeks and Ericka stayed at the house for most of the time and looked after our two large dogs: golden retriever and Newfoundland. We had daily WhatsApp updates with pictures and video. When we returned, the dogs were happy to see us, but didn't go wild....why?....because they had been absolutely spoiled whilst we were away! Ericka had lavished so much attention on them, both by being with them so much of the time and by taking them to exciting places for walks, in parks and to the Downs. I can thoroughly recommend Ericka for looking after dogs as she did an excellent job. Many thanks Ericka.
Ericka has been amaizing with my puppy Alma. She spent all weekend with her while we have been away.She sent a lot of pics and videos.I will continue with her service.
Thank you Ericka😃
