I feel emotionally close to animals, and enjoy the challenge of creating a bond. I also happen to be professional housesitter, however my services on this website are free. (see my professonal reviews and my background check confirmations here https://www.rover.com/members/erika-g-i-keep-your-animals-happy/ ). Your pets and home are your heart, and I care for them with that in mind. I have worked with almost every animal out there, from iguanas to cows, and of course dogs and cats. I am a writer and work off my laptop, and will spend a significant part of the day in your home keeping your pets company. I use this website to travel to places of my choosing. I'm a great communicator. I send one update per day with pictures, and of course if there are any issues I will be in contact as much as necessary.
