About Erica B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I love to take active pets on long hikes/walks as their able always taking into consideration weather and season, on shorter walks I prefer to let them stop and sniff as long as they like to support mental stimulation. At home I encourage home friendly play like searching for a toy or backyard fetch when the space allows. Of course snuggles are always available for pets who are less mobile or slowing down.
Information Erica B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know your pups general demeanor & any behaviors I should know about, specifically how they are on trail/when around other dogs. Any commands you use regularly/would like to keep up training on. I Specialize with high energy dogs who like lots of daily activity and mental stimulation.
A typical day
Hiking, fetch and recall, search, command training, cuddles, frisbee are just some of the activities is use daily with my pet and pets that I watch. I’d love to incorporate any of your pets personal favorites and accommodate activities to their ability/needs.

Pet care experience
As a mom to a 5 year old blue heeler and an avid traveler, I know how hard it is to leave fur babies behind & the importance of finding someone you trust to care for them while away. With me, you can expect clear communication, daily photo updates, 2x daily walks/hikes and a clean and tidy home upon return. I’ve cared for pets from over a weekend to over a month plus, locally and abroad, and have experience with a wide range of breeds and needs including working avalanche rescue dogs. I am confident in off leash settings, with the use of e-collars and understand high energy needs. I’ve had dogs, cats and plants in my family all my life & I wouldn’t have it any other way. My well trained and friendly pup Cliff loves making new friends to hike and play with and makes dog sits feel more like summer camp for pups, alleviating the stress and anxiety of parents being away by making a new furry friend!
Reviews
Erica is wonderful. She so clearly cares about the dogs she watches and brings loving and calm energy to their care. Very grateful to have found her.
Erica was super good at communicating with us and sent us plenty of pictures of our dog. And we came home to a clean and tidy house!
My family felt comfortable with Erica and her pup Cliff watching our two pups in our home while we were on vacation. She cared for our home and most importantly made our dogs comfortable. She regularly sent photos which was nice.
Erica did such a stellar job taking care of our kitties while we were camping! Erica is super mature and clearly competent, which made a big difference in helping me feel completely confident both cats would be fine even though we were out of service while we were gone. When we got home, the kitties were calm and everything was clean and in perfect order. I highly recommend Erica and would definitely feel comfortable leaving our dog with her as well if we were taking a dog-free trip!
