Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have one cat of my own, and offer a private room, if needed, for boarded cats who aren't comfortable around unfamiliar cats. I will follow all of the pet owners requirements, and additionally keep an eye on any behavior or health changes.
Home
Information Erica D. would like to know about your pet
I'll do an intake with the pet owner(s) to ensure I have all the key details such as eating, care, personality traits, and play instructions.
A typical day
I adapt to the pet when it comes to playtime to focus on the types of activities that they like the best, and the times of day that they're typically most active.

Small Dogs, Big Attention
Pet care experience
I provide calm, attentive care that’s especially well-suited for small dogs who thrive on consistency, gentle handling, and close supervision. I have extensive experience caring for friends’ and family members’ small dogs while they travel, and I focus on maintaining familiar routines to reduce stress. I’m patient, observant, and comfortable with senior dogs and those who may be a bit anxious or sensitive. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, leash manners, medications when needed, and overall comfort, and I provide thoughtful updates so owners feel confident their dog is safe, happy, and well cared for.
