Pet care experience

I'll run and play with your dog!

I love dogs! I am a teacher with two children, ages 15 and 19 who also love dogs. Although we do not have a fenced in yard, we love to go on long walks and hikes around our neighborhood. You will often find me walking my own dog morning and night. I definitely have a way with all kids of dogs, big and small. We have a nine year old basset hound who loves to play with other dogs too. We have been dog owners for over twenty years, giving us valuable experiance caring for dogs. Our house is warm and pet friendly as we allow dogs to roam freely, just fencing in certain rooms at night and when we are not home. We would be very excited to help care for your dog!

I can’t recommend Erica enough. She and her family are wonderful people and dog lovers! My dog is14 so give never been comfortable boarding him in a kennel place. I think he’d be traumatized. My son and family weren’t available on our trip and Erica was a perfect fit. While away there was a heatwave of 100 degrees for 2 days. I was so relieved Peewee was in a home where they could insure he was well hydrated and kept cool. I recommend Erica highly. Her Bassett hound seemed to love having another dog in the house too

Erica was great, we had to make last minute changes to our boarding and we are very grateful to have found her! Jack came home so happy after a great weekend. Great communication and pictures while he was in her care!

Erica was a great choice for doggy daycare!. It was a breeze communicating with her. My dog seemed so happy going to her place the second time. I would highly recommend Erica.

I had a last minute emergency and Erica came through for us. Very kind and loving family. It is obvious how much affection they have for animals. Daisy did great and I never worried about her for a moment. It was a good experience for us.

Erica was very good, I was worried about leaving Stella, but she put my mind at ease. She sent pictures of Stella. You can tell she really likes what she is doing and takes good care of the dogs. I would definitely have her care for her again

Erica and her family were so good to my boy! Her house is truly a palace for dogs, I knew Gunther would have a great time there.
