Lifetime dog lover and owner.

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of dogs for 10+ years. I I have administered pills and other medication to my own dogs and other dogs that I have dog sat. I take my dog and neighbors dogs on 30+ minute walks daily. I always make sure that the dogs are safe in my care. I previously worked as a veterinary assistant at a dog and cat office for 2 years and at an exotics office for 1 year. I am currently a student and would love to use my animal experience to provide care for your family! I am experienced in reactive dog care, as my dog Cubby, is reactive. For this reason I am unable to bring pets to my house, but am happy to visit your home! When stopping in for a house visit I will play with the dog and give them lots of love and attention.

I've always had trouble trusting other services because I'm fairly neurotic abou my dog. Erika is one of the first people I go to when I am forced to part with my pooch.

Erika does great work! I can always trust her and her knowledge in dog behavior; it's very clear she has a passion for animals. I highly recommend her services.

At your home I will happily walk your dog, throw a ball in the backyard, or cuddle on the couch! I am glad to do whatever makes your pet comfortable!

Information Erika F. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know of any reactivity (dog, human, leash, resource guarding), any health concerns or dietary issues so I can provide quality care.

A typical day

On a typical day I will do some sort of activity with the dog such as a walk, throw a ball, or play with toys inside. When I walk dogs in their neighborhood I like to explore and let the dog smell many new things. If there is a part nearby we may rest there for a bit with some water. I may read a book in the park with the dog, if their temperament agrees with that.
