Dog Boarding & Daycare, Garden Home

I have been a dog lover my whole life! Over the last 13 years, I’ve raised my Jack Russell Chihuahua mix from puppy to healthy senior. Like most millennials, I bought the house with a yard for my dog! I work from home in the tech industry, which allows me to spend all day with your pups, giving them attention throughout the day, taking them for regular walks and potty breaks, and tending to their needs. I live on a quiet block with a peaceful enclosed backyard. I would love to host your fur babies!

We loved Erika, she is responsible, communicative, and clearly loves dogs. Our 2 pups loved her back yard, and they got along great with her own dog. She let them sleep with her which is huge as our pups sleep with us at home! She also provided many photos and videos throughout the day to show us how comfy our dogs were. We will definitely be using her services again!

Erika continues to be our go-to to watch our babies! We feel so relieved going anywhere knowing the dogs are in good hands. They love to sunbathe in her backyard and it’s clear they absolutely love her and Snap’s company. We love all the photos and videos we receive. Thanks Erika!

Erika was amazing! Our pup stayed with her for 9 nights. She kept us updated with daily pics and vids. When our boy got an upset tummy, she texted to ask permission to make him rice, and modify his diet. She took care of him with the same love that we do. We will definitely use her again!

Doggy Day Care • Jul 24, 2025

Erika was absolutely amazing with our dogs, Tula and Buzz! This was our booking using Rover, and she made the experience stress free and wonderful. It was a same day last minute request for the unplanned part of the trip! She was responsive and quick to provide guidance and support. Erika took excellent care of our doggies, sending me pictures throughout the day and keeping me updated. Her kindness and genuine care for Tula and Buzz were evident, and they came home happy and well cared for. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will definitely book with Erika again. Highly recommend!

Schedule

Full time work from home, flexible schedule that allows for multiple potty breaks and walks. My dog usually walks 3 times a day (15 min each), which I could easily incorporate an additional dog to the walks. The back door is kept open weather permitting for dogs to sniff, sunbathe, and explore.

Safety, trust & environment

Each pet’s care is unique! Whether that is walking them alone, specific dietary needs, or toys that are off limit. I work closely with you and your pet to tailor to their needs, and ensure a happy and comfortable stay. I always suggest a meet and greet prior to first stay, so we can review your expectations, learn more about how to best communicate with your pet, and ensure we are on the same page for care needs.

Pets

A typical day

We typically start our morning with breakfast, and a loop around the block for pee and poop. Then some play time with a bone or stuffed toy (my favorite). Then I’ll snooze either in my dog bed, or on the couch, or in the sunshine in the backyard. Then another midday day loop, and again in the evening time. Fairview Park is a 3 minute drive if we want to explore the park.

Need to discuss any special needs or behaviors, and confirm they will get along with my senior dog, a 20 pound Jack Russell / Chihuahua mix. I always recommend a meet and greet prior to introduce the dogs, go over their care requirements, feeding and bathroom habits, what toys they can play with, and ensure you and your fur baby feels safe and comfortable in my care.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
