Pet care experience
Hi! We're Erik and Erin and we would love to be trusted to take care of your best friend! We've grown up with dogs and have owned dogs for over 15 years. I was raised with bigger dogs but also own pugs so I have experience in both the larger and smaller breeds. Erik was also raised around bigger dogs (Dalmatians) and smaller breeds (Dachshunds) We love all breeds and are easily adaptable to all personalities. We both have volunteered with our vet (taking care of litter of pit bull puppies with parvo), the Animal Rescue League and Humane Society, and with the Midwest Minnesota Pug Rescue. We do fostering and fundraising. Since we own pugs, we also have the special skill set of knowing that those certain breeds ( Bulldogs, Frenchies and Boston Terriers, to name a few) need special attention when it comes to temperatures and weather. So if one of those breeds are your babies, you can rest easy knowing that we know their needs and requirements! We're available during most later afternoons and evenings along with most weekends. we both work full time but have a pretty flexible schedule so we're willing to work with you on schedules! We would love and take care your dog and treat him/her like they were a part of the family! Allowing us to walk, stay with them or just be a playtime buddy would not only give them some extra fun and exercise, but give you the peace of mind that your best buddy is well taken care of and treated with the best care! As a dog owners, we know how unnerving it can be sometimes when finding someone to watch and care for your friend. We're here to help!
Reviews
Erin has been a lifesaver! On quite a few occasions, we have utilized her dog whisperer skills to watch our beloved Mrs. Hudson. One thing that needs to be made clear is that Mrs. Hudson is a very independent terrier who doesn’t take to everyone. Mrs. Hudson lets out “puppy squeaks” everytime that she sees Erin. It melts our heart! Erin is the best. Thank you!!
We have a Newfoundland that can be a handful to take care of — he’s 150 pounds! Erin is always willing help us out by watching when we need a break. Every time she walks in the door, Baloo’s big tail starts swinging from side to side and he gets so excited!
Butters always has a ton of energy. Erin does a great job of helping us out by taking him on walks to help him burn that energy and get the exercise that he needs! Whenever she drops him off, Butters is calm and ready for a big nap. Thank you so much!
Erin has been a wonderful dog sitter for us. We’ve relied on her to care for our Miniature Dachshund while we have been out of town. She has always been reliable, responsible and trustworthy. We highly recommend her to anybody who needs somebody to help care for their pets!

Information Erin & Erik B. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences. If the dog is staying with me, I do need to know if they get along well with other dogs (I have 2 pugs) and any behavior issues. I'm always willing to be accommodating but just need the whole story to make sure all the dogs in my care are safe and happy!
A typical day
I own a home with a nice sized back yard. There's always an opportunity to go out there, play with the toys, get in the baby pool or just lounge around in the sun. Going on walks to the local park or even around the neighborhood is always on the schedule! Playing with toys or simply just enjoying each other's company is a good option too!
