Highlights
Pet care experience
Pets love this country retreat!
As a life-long animal lover who has raised many dogs and cats of my own, I've also been a foster home for several rescue organizations over the past 20 years. I have experience with all kinds of situations and personalities, including: potty training puppies and adults, high energy go-getters, senior hospice care, administering medications, allergies, special diets, surgery recovery, cancer patient care, crate training, positive reinforcement training, storm/firework anxiety, etc. If you don't see your pet's specific need listed here, please don't hesitate to ask if I can accommodate! I currently have one dog and an indoors-only cat. My dog LOVES to play with other dogs if your dog is willing to participate, but she will respectfully leave them alone if they let her know they don't want to. Since I provide both boarding and daycare services, your pet may be around other clients during their stay. I do meet & greet sessions with all new clients prior to their first stay to help ensure everyone will be a personality & behavior fit, and keep the group small and manageable. NEW DAYCARE & BOARDING CLIENTS: We will do a free meet and greet before your first booking (in-person visit for dogs, a video call is ok for cats) to introduce the pets, go over any questions either of us may have, and to make sure we'll all be a good fit. Dogs MUST be current on vaccinations and cat friendly. If you're unsure if your dog is cat friendly, we can test that during the meet & greet.

Ratings and reviews
This is our third booking with Erica and we couldn’t be more pleased! I highly, highly recommend Erica.
Always great for Marley. Erica does a great job communicating and providing updates. Very efficient process as well.
Erica was great taking care of our cat for 2 weeks while we were out of the country. Always showed up on time, we received detailed updates and photos so we could relax and enjoy our trip knowing she was in great hands. The cats area was clean and neat and she gave the cat her medication which isn’t the easiest thing to do with cats.
OMG Finn had the best time!!! Ericka took the best care of him. He can’t wait to go back. We have a boring house now😂😂
As always… Erica does a great job with Marley and provides daily updates/photos. Highly recommended to anyone that needs a dog sitter!!!
Erica was so great with Finn! She took extra care and effort to safely teach him and introduce him to kitties. He had never met one before so all new to him. She took a bunch of pictures of his interaction with the other pups. I am so excited to have found someone to take care of Finn when we are away, or even if he just needs a day away from Mom🙂. Erica’s place is great with a great yard patio and lots of cool floors to cool down.

Schedule
I'm a stay at home pet mom and can dedicate as much time as needed to your pet's care and enrichment activities. We have 5 acres in the country in a gated community with low traffic, and a 5' fenced backyard. I am more than happy to provide daily walks, play time, and cuddles based on what your pet's routine requires.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have 5 acres in the country with a fenced backyard. Dogs are in the house or supervised in the fenced backyard with me when I am at home. Pets are kept inside the house with us at night. Our pets are allowed on the furniture, but if you do not allow that at your home, I uphold your same rules. I follow your pet's schedule for feeding, potty breaks, medications, etc.
Pets
A typical day
We could do anything from going on walks, wading in the kiddie pool, fetch, car rides, cuddles, naps, watching the deer, or a trip to the dog park if they're a social butterfly.
