About Erin

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi! I'm Erin. I've always been drawn to the elderly, loving to listen and learn from their stories. I'm fortunate to have built special relationships with clients as a trusted friend, companion and caregiver. The families I care for describe me as patient, encouraging, respectful, engaged, positive, calm and gentle, yet firm with a good sense of humor. I've had the honor of caring for people living with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Dementia, Hospital Delirium, Cancer, MS, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Colposcopies, Pulmonary Fibrosis +Anxieties. My experience includes overnights, mobility assistance, chemo support, medication and hygiene care, creative activities, help with physical therapy routines, transportation, menu/meal prep, home organization/cleaning, pet car and gardening. My family, faith, nature, photography, art +gardening are a few of my favorite things. I'm a single Mother of 2 adult children and a beagle, living in Afton. Thank you kindly for your interest and consideration.

Absolutely thrilled to share my experience with Erin as a dog caregiver! Erin recently took care of my beloved dog, Gunner, and I couldn’t be happier with the service she provided. From the moment Erin arrived, it was clear that she was not only professional but also genuinely passionate about dogs. Her kindness and caring nature were evident in every interaction with Gunner. Erin’s trustworthiness was a huge relief for me. I felt completely at ease knowing that my home and my dog were in such capable hands. She was meticulous about maintaining Gunner’s routine, ensuring that he felt secure and loved while I was away. Her attention to detail and commitment to Gunner’s well-being were truly remarkable. Erin went above and beyond, providing thoughtful updates and even sending photos, which was such a nice touch. Gunner was clearly happy and well-cared for, and it was wonderful to return to a home that was in perfect order. If you’re looking for someone who is not only excellent at dog sitting but also kind, caring, and trustworthy, Erin is the person you want. I can’t recommend her highly enough—she’s a gem!
