Pet care experience
*My services have been limited at this time - I am recovering from a knee injury. I will welcome dogs into my home for daycare, but I will be unavailable for dog walking etc until further notice - I apologize for any inconvenience this causes - hope to be back at it soon!* I have been a veterinary technician since 2006. I have been in emergency medicine since 2014 and am animal CPR certified. I have also been in foster/rescue worker for over 5 years, working with dogs that are in need of many different levels of rehab. Additional fees do apply for any "medical" visitors. I work from home, my preferred availability is Monday - Friday 8am-4pm - I am flexible to work with those hours, just let me know and we can try to work something out; Boarding availability will be updated when I start offering this service and will include weekends as necessary for travel accommodations; I have a chain link - fully fenced-in backyard. For Boarders: We crate at bedtime to make sure that everyone is secure and sleeping with the rest of the homes routine. Outside of that, the animals have freedom to roam the house, lay about the couches and beds etc unless you otherwise prefer something else. Cage time is no exception in our home to prevent food aggression issues amongst the animals and to provide animals a break or safe haven if they wish to retreat from the house's activity level.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard and a friendly &active dog to keep those wanting to play going all day! Otherwise, we have places to lounge for those lazier dogs like my other dog, who prefers to sunbathe and lay in bed. I can crate if needed, we utilize this for feeding and treats to prevent jealousy issues.

Information Erica M. would like to know about your pet
I find it important to know if your dog is sensitive to any foods / treats. I’d also like to know if there are special behaviors or triggers your dog may have that are unique to them.
A typical day
*As a reminder, extra activities have been put on hold due to my knee injury, do not fear, we have kids and the other dogs that we can have plenty of fun still!* We’ve got lots of tennis balls for those that like fetch and catch! Walks will be used for adventures/exploration. Summer time we set up the dog pool as well!
