My name is Brittany Erickson. I am orignally from Slidell, LA , a small city about 35 miles north of New Orleans. I grew up on the bayou! I moved to New Orleans in October of 2008 and decided to start Bae's Dog Walking shortly thereafter. Prior to starting the business, I did a 3 month internship at the Species Survival Center for the Audubon Institute where I worked with exotic cats and many other endangered species.
I volunteer with The Animal Assistance League and Pontchatrain Humane Society where I did fostering. I do wildlife rehabiltion. Iv'e done tons of animal rescues independently.
I have tons of domestic animal experinces as well. I have hand raised dogs, cats, squirrels, possums, and raccoons. I have trained horses and was a a grand champion hunter jumper by the age of 13. I worked on mulitple farms working with horses, cows, goats, birds and pigs. I have personally owned guinea pigs, rats, chinchillas, ferrets, hampsters, turtles, snakes, ducks, chickens, bearded dragons, and miniature goats. I love all animals!
I have a 3yr old Pitbull/Labrador mix named Zamora (shown in the picture on the front)She is permantly blind in her right eye. A 3lb 7 year old Chihuahua rescue named Tillie. I rescued a cat named Farley, an 8 year old diabetic cat.. Then there are my two other cats: Thor, my 5 year old asthmatic, and Lestat, my 6 year old.

Ramses
Bae's has been walking my 118lb Doberman Pinscher for 6 months (4-5 days/week while I work and for my mother) Brittany Erickson is very professional, courteous, friendly to the dog and to the owners. Bae's knows the animal buisness very well and the dog really loves her. The Doberman Pinscher has a sweet dispostions; The Bae's Dog Walker would agree to that.

Baes Notes: He is such a big teddy bear. I love Ramses. He also loves his hugs and his pepperoni treats =) He has such a sweet dispostion. I enjoy walking him.
Layla
Bae's Notes: This Is Layla, my smallest client. She is a cutie pie! We are at Audubon park in this photo. She loves to chase pigeons and squirrels. I have a nickname for her, I call her my little gazelle because when I brought her to the park the grass was tall and when she was running through it she looked like a little gazelle...hehe. She has 2 brothers at home Gizmo and Brooklyn(which are some of the coolest cats) Both of them love their bellies rubbed =)
Baes Notes: Marley and Charlie(the kitties) Charlie is white and tan he is a cool calm cat. Look at his beautiful eyes =) Marley is the female on the top, everytime I pet sit she is always meowing at me, she likes attention, she likes to be scratched on top of the head. I love that picture of the both of them! Allie is the sweet girl in the pictures above. She is one of the happiest dogs I know. We enjoy our walks around the neighborhood, she loves to stop and smell everything.
"As a veterinarian, I am very concerned about the health and safety of my
pets while I am away. Time and again, Brittany has proven herself a
trustworthy companion to my dog and two cats. I would never hesitate to
entrust them to her care while I am away."
This is Hershey, our baby girl who loves being in the yard and playing ball. I would recommend Bae’s Dog walking service to any one who truely loves their pet. We used Bae’s services while we were on vacation this past August. We needed someone to feed, change Hershey’s water and play her favorite game, fetching her tennis ball. Bae’s did a great job. We returned home to find Hershey healthy, happy and ready to play ball. It was like we never left her. Thanks Bae’s.

Bae's Notes: Hershey is a lab and loves her tennis ball! She also loves her pig ear treats as well. She is a sweet girl just like her name =)





"I would highly recommend Brittany Erickson to anyone who needs someone to take care of their pet. She is a very responsible and reliable person whom I have worked with on many occasions. I am a volunteer for the Animal Assistance League of Slidell and was in charge of the Pet Smart animals. Brittany was one of the volunteers that took care of the animals and she did an outstanding job. I was very confident of her abilities to spot a problem early (such as upper respiratory or stress) because of her background working with animals and because she took time with each of the animals. She has successfully fostered several puppies and kittens for the AAL and we also did some work together at a Clearwater Wildlife Sanctuary. I have 7 rescued dogs and a number of other animals that she has taken care of for me when I was out of town and I know that they are in the best of care. Brittany is a kind, trustworthy person and she has a lot of patience, knowledge and respect for animals."

"My name is Ashley Babington, and I have personally known Brittany
for approximately eight years. We both met at the age of sixteen, and since
then I have learned and cared more about animals because of her actions.
Since I have known her, she has rescued countless amounts of pets and
wildlife and nurtured them back to health... A lot of with her own money and
time. She is also the reason I have my cat Neo,who is my baby! Neo was
picked up by a mutual friend of both me and Brittany as a small wandering
kitten in May of 2008. He was very tiny and hungry, and was also covered in
fleas and ear mites. Brittany decided to bring him home (we were roomates at
the time) and I fell in love! She decided to put him in my care, and with
her help I have had him ever since. Neo was difficult to care for in the
beginning. He was very timid and scared which made it hard to clean his ears
and give him baths to get rid of the countless fleas. Luckily, Brittany knew
exactly what to do and how to care for him, and because of her I now have a
wonderful and irreplaceble addition to my family! I have seen her foster
many animals during our time as roomates, all of which were sucessfully
adopted. She is an extremely reliable, credible, and caring individual and I
can vouch and guarantee that you're animal will receive the upmost love and
respect in her care. "
Bae's notes: Isn't he the cuttest thing ever! He always looks like he is smiling. Neo couldn't have found a better home if he tried.
