Service Dog Trainer & Dog Mom

Pet care experience

I am a Service Dog Trainer by trade and a caring Dog Mom by heart. I have a degree in Cynology from Bergin University of Canine Studies and train shelter dogs to be Diabetic Alert Service Dogs. All guests are treated like one of my own and are always under direct supervision so there is little inappropriate behaviors such as barking, bullying or other inappropriate house behaviors. I focus on force-free training techniques as I believe a dog should behave because they want too not because they are afraid of being punished if they don't. I reinforce polite leash manners on all dog walks and am happy to provide a knowledgeable and consistent training approach to the walks your dog receives. I have been involved with animal rescue for several years and I am comfortable with all sizes, ages and breeds of dogs. Each dog is an individual and I am more than happy to figure out a plan that works for your dog to help them be comfortable while in my care.

Erica took great care of Sahara while we went on vacation. She updated us with pictures and send us notes about what Sahara was doing while we were away - mostly sleeping - ha! We had confidence she was is good hands and was well loved and cared for in our absence. Thank you Erica!

Boarding guests can enjoy playgroups in my large backyard and snuggles on the couch during quiet times. Dog walks are upbeat and focus on teaching your dog polite, loose leash manners.
