Providing a safe space for pups!
Pet care experience
My partner and I work from home most days, so I am very flexible for dog boardings on weekdays and variable hours on weekends - please feel free to reach out! I always schedule a meet and greet before confirming your boarding dates to take the time to learn all about your dog's schedule and habits to provide them the best attention and care that you would for your dog. We have a high energy Australian Shepherd, so I understand the importance of daily exercise and mental simulation. We have our own fenced yard and frequently take our dog to different walking trails throughout the week. We'd be happy to bring your pup for these excursions as well! I work a hybrid work schedule at the moment but my partner works from home full time and has a flexible schedule. If you book with me, I'll provide the following services: - Walks 2-3 times a day: We're an active couple and have a high energy dog so we take her out often to new places for walks. - Monitored playtime in the fenced backyard: Between scheduled walk times, we'll let the pups outside to play with a variety of toys (tug toys, balls, frisbee) - Free roam of the house throughout the day: Depending on you dog's behavior, we allow the dogs access to all rooms of the house where myself or my partner are. Often times I'll find both my dog and your pup hanging out in my office while I work :) - Car rides to hiking trails: If your dog is comfortable in a car and you give us permission, we will take them on hiking trails on weekends and some weekdays. We have two dog seatbelts and pet hammock in the back seat of our car to secure your dog. I have a fenced backyard where we've hosted numerous doggie playdates. I believe strongly in structuring time and space for the pups to decompress after stimulating activities. I have a set of smart feeder toys as well, which helps give the dogs mental stimulation between play times.
Reviews
Above and beyond my expectations for dog boarding. We received so many updates it was like he was still with us, which gave us so much peace of mind. Would love to have my dog stay with them again.
Erica was very friendly and took wonderful care of my pup, Lobo! She kept me informed on Lobo was doing and sent over plenty of cute videos and pictures. I highly recommend her services! :)
Outstanding! I am glad we spent the time researching for the perfect sitters because we found them. We have had several sitters, but Erica and Yi were the best hands down! Frequent updates detailing her health, happiness, and overall well being kept us at ease and brightened our day. Their dog Aspen is also one of the friendliest most behaved dogs, an amazing friend for Izzy. Izzy will be back in the future to enjoy her vacation just as much as ours. Thanks again for the intensive care and accepting her into your family. Made our trip much better knowing she was so well taken care of. ?
Erica was amazing! She kept us updated throughout the day with photos and videos. We trusted our dog, Sylvia, with her and her dog Aspen is the sweetest girl and allowed Sylvia to sleep in her bed and welcomed her with kisses!!! They went on two daily walks and kept Sylvia active and safe. I recommend Erica and would use her again in the future!!!

Information Erica W. would like to know about your pet
1. Would like to know of any medical issues (knee problems, surgeries) 2. Pet friendliness or reactivity to other dogs, kids, and people. 3. Does your dog have resource guarding tendencies with food or toys? 4. Is your dog is crate trained? 5. Is your dog allowed on furniture? We allow them on designated spots on the couch if you allow it
A typical day
Daily walks through the park - usually I like to do a loop around the Alameda dry Creek Trail (partially shaded), which is a nice walk for dogs.
