Safe Attentive Friendly Care
Pet care experience
I have had many furry family members over my lifetime. With almost 30 years in the pet industry, animals are my passion! I worked in boarding kennels as a teenager, before I began grooming. I was a grooming manager of a pet salon for 2 years before grooming in a private salon for many more years. I then started grooming and boarding from home. I enjoy being a home pet care professional and meeting so many different pets is AMAZING!! I have extensive experience with extremely anxious pups as well young puppies and seniors with special needs. I am currently a Stay at home mom with children in school so I have plenty of time to spoil your furry companion whenever you can't be there. In our family we have a golden retriever mix, Charlie, that's 9 years old and loves to play with balls! He's quite an extensive sniffer at the initial meeting but is pretty indifferent towards other pups after that unless they play pretty gently. Our yard is large and fully fenced, perfect for fetch and getting lots of play time with each other. There's not a lot traffic and it's a very quiet area. I only leave for short periods during the day so I have plenty of time to spend caring for pups. I prefer to have pick ups and drop offs by appointment. I love being someone to keep pups from being lonely when their favorite people can't be with them. Playing with and snuggling dogs for a living is about the best job there is!
Reviews

Great communication which is all us dog parents need when we’re away from our fur babies!!! Highly recommend Erika!



Erika was wonderful. I have to admit, due to a previous experience where our dogs were unfortunately abandoned by a sitter we had hired, I was very hesitant to trust someone new. However, Erika exceeded our expectations. She took the time to visit our home twice before our trip to learn the routine and was fully engaged throughout the process. While I was still anxious once we left simply because of past experiences, Erika consistently kept in touch via text and sent photos of our dogs, which gave me great peace of mind. I would absolutely use her again. Thank you, Erika, for your dedication and the love you showed our dogs.

Finn is always happy to see Erika. I suspect he feels right at home !!

Always a pleasure having Erika take care of our pup!

Also anything that would make their stay generally more comfortable. Any behavior concerns that need special attention and care. Any anxiety coping tools used at home.
A typical day
I'm up for any activity or lack there of that your pup wants. Toys, fetch and chase in the yard is always fun or a nice long walk exploring the smells of everything that catches attention.
