Availability

With some notice I can likely accommodate most days. I can do drop-in visits or daycare playdates on most days. If I have dogs scheduled for daycare, I won't leave them alone to do drop-ins. I don't leave any dogs alone during their daycare stay while they're here.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog's safety is my top concern. I have a newly 6’ fenced yard for lots of chase games, zoomies and potty breaks. My dog is not left outside alone and neither will yours. Getting to know your pup will be important to me, so I can understand their needs and where we can build trust together. My hope is to offer a safe and fun environment where your dog can enjoy the day and you can feel confident they are in good hands.

Information Erica L. would like to know about your pet

Tell me more about your dog. What is their personality like? Why did you choose Rover? How are they with other dogs, children, strangers? What should I know about them to ensure I can provide the best care for their needs?

A typical day

Once I get to know you and your dog, we can determine the best activities for our time together. It's important to me your dog's routine is predictable and they feel confident and relaxed while we're together. If your dog likes lots of physical activity and socialization, I’m sure Cookie and I can keep them busy.

Pet care experience

As an owner of a dog with severe separation anxiety, I joined Rover years ago to find a safe and reassuring place where my furbaby could visit when I worked away from my home. When my furbaby passed away, I decided I could offer the same peace of mind to others by becoming a Rover sitter. I'm newly retired and have a flexible schedule to ensure your pup is well cared for and not left alone. I now have a new pup (2 yr old) that is a social butterfly. She loves to stop and meet every dog we see. She is very friendly - gentle with little pups and can rough play with the big dogs. She has endless energy and would love to have a friend to play with everyday. It's important your dog gets along well with others as I may have more than 1 dog here at a time.

Erica keeps going above and beyond every time she looks after my aging cat. In addition to requiring medication, my cat is a bit anxious and has been losing weight. Erica puts in extra effort to get her to eat her food, medicine, and treats. She allows me to travel without stressing, and I always come back to a happy cat.

Erica does a great job looking after Polly during weekend trips. Polly needs medication and is a fairly needy cat, so Erica's attentive care and thorough updates are super helpful for peace of mind!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
