Your Dog’s Home Away from Home🏡

Hi! I’m an experienced dog owner and caregiver with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I’ve worked with dogs ranging from small (3 lbs) to medium/large (up to 60 lbs), including puppies as young as 4 months and senior dogs requiring medication and extra care. I work fully remote, which means your dog will have consistent supervision and won’t be left alone for long periods. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, attention, and a steady routine throughout the day. I live in a clean, pet-friendly home with a large fenced yard where your dog can safely play and relax. I’m very attentive to routines, comfort, and safety, and I treat every pet like my own. I also have experience preparing homemade dog treats, so I’m always mindful of what pets consume and their overall well-being. I have my own dog, Bo, who is almost 15 and still healthy, active, and loves to run and jump around — which I truly believe comes from consistent care, attention, and a loving environment. Your pet will be in a calm, loving, and structured environment while you’re away — with plenty of attention, care, and affection.

Erica took amazing care of our Buddy. We really appreciated her frequent updates and photos, and our communication with her was great. She was caring and patient in taking care of Buddy, who was well balanced when he came home. We highly recommend Erica!

Great Dog sitter! I like how we had a meetup before she took in Boba. It really helped us decide on Erica. Then through out Boba’s stay, Erica was very communicative and sent lots of pics. We didnt have to worry at all! Would rebook!

Erica accept my request last min and was beyond accommodating. She sent me multiple updates and ohotos and loved my dog as I would. He can be very attached to humans and she did her best to spoil him. I would highly recommend her.

I will definitely be using Erica again. She kept me updated on my dogs and sent me so many pictures. They seemed to have really enjoyed being with her and looked so comfortable in all the pictures she sent.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet like my own and focus on creating a safe, stress-free environment. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and has a large fenced yard for safe outdoor play. Pets are always supervised outside and never left unattended. Because I work from home, your pet will have plenty of attention, regular potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, and any medications or special care. If I’m in your home, I keep your pet’s routine consistent and your space respected. I also provide updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

Pets

A typical day

I provide a safe, structured, and caring environment where pets feel comfortable and well cared for. In my home, dogs are part of my daily routine — I start the day by feeding my own dog, Bo, along with his supplements, and I bring that same level of attention and care to every dog I watch. Throughout the day, I make sure pets receive consistent care, including regular potty breaks, playtime, and attention. I typically take dogs out at least three times a day for walks, in addition to supervised time in our large fenced yard. Since I work fully remote, pets are rarely left alone and have consistent supervision and companionship. I also follow each pet’s specific feeding schedule, routines, and any special instructions, including medications or supplements if needed. My husband is also a big dog lover, so your pet will be in a warm, attentive environment with plenty of care and affection from both of us.

Before a stay, I like to understand each pet’s routine and preferences to provide the best care possible. This includes feeding schedules, potty break routines, walking habits, and any specific instructions. I also like to know about any behaviors, habits, or things to watch for so I can make sure your pet feels comfortable and stays consistent with what they’re used to. I keep track of routines for new dogs I care for, which helps me monitor for any changes or unusual behavior. The more details you can share, the better — I always welcome thorough instructions so I can provide attentive, personalized care for your pet.
