Safe and needs-based dog care

Pet care experience

I have been a mother to three dogs in the past - a German shepherd mix, a pitbull mix, and a pug. I treat dogs with respect and try to provide a stimulating environment that allows them to live their best lives. Our furry friends may only be in our lives for a little over a decade, but we create their whole world. I approach dog care in a humanitarian manner - to provide safe and needs-based care to vital members to our families - our pets. I know how to properly walk, feed, brush, and take dogs out for potty breaks. I also provide an above average environment for dogs who require extra care or enrichment by engaging in stimulating activities or training, or in the case of elderly dogs, making sure they are completely comfortable.

First and foremost Erica is truly a dog lover and she owns dogs herself. I think that’s important when deciding who will be the caretaker of your dog. She has taken care of my silver lab on numerous occasions and I couldn’t be more pleased with level of service I’ve received. You won’t find a more responsible dog walker or sitter than Erica.

My Cavapoo, Ahsoka *LOVES* every night she gets to stay with her Erica! We met Erica in our apartment complex about a year ago, and ever since then, Erica has been wonderful and so sweet to my dog! My job requires me to work unexpectedly during night shifts often, and Erica has always been quick to respond and flexible in taking care of Ahsoka. She gives me updates frequently, and I know Ahsoka is in great hands whenever she's with Erica. I'm so grateful to be able to rely on her.

Erica and I met in my building about a year ago and she's been helping me with my 65 lb dog Hendrix ever since. She's always quick to respond and gives me updates on him whenever he's in her care. I can tell that she loves spending time with him and he gets so excited every time he sees her, that I never have to worry when he's with her. She's a great sitter for Hendrix.

Erica is very knowledgeable about pet care. She boarded my dog recently for a few days and gave him adequate walks, stimulation, and met his dietary needs. I would 100% recommend.
