Erika's Dog Boarding, Reg. Vet Tech
**About me** I currently am a stay at home Mom looking to make a little extra cash doing what I love! I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager but officially through Rover since 2016. June 2017-December 2017 I worked part time at the Allen County SPCA as the Communtiy Cat Coordinator. Prior to that I was an Animal Control Officer for the city of Fort Wayne which had been my full time job for 7 and a half years. I went to Purdue and graduated in 2009 with my Bachelor's in Veterinary Technology. I have worked in vet's offices and boarding facilities since I was 15 years old. I am now 37 years old, married, with 6 kids. We have a crew of dogs, cats, chickens, horses, sheep and mini donkeys. I also occasionally foster dogs for a local rescue. **About my home/services** I am very comfortable with any imaginable pet request, ie nail trims, walks, baths, etc. **About my neighborhood** We live on 15 acres with a pond. Lots of fun places for pups to play! **What to expect** We can provide plenty of interaction and exercise for your pet! Runs, walks, cuddles, play time, anything your pet wants! **Special rules or requests** We are open and flexible to your needs and requests. If you need anything don't hesitate to ask! We are very available on our cell phones and can send pictures and video and even facetime with your pet!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
As a pet owner you always want to find the perfect person to care for your dogs. Someone who will take the time to help them get adjusted, who will be kind, gentle, patient and is familiar with your breed. Erika was that person. She was an answer to prayer. She did a fantastic job with our dogs. I truly appreciated all the pictures and feedback she supplied while they were in her care. Taking them for extra walks (which they live for), letting them play in water, and going the extra mile to see that they ate. She truly did a wonderful jab and we would recommend her and would definitely book with her again!
Erika was fantastic! Our dog Nina is 14 so is a lot more high maintenance these days with the occasional accidents and needing shots daily. Erika had no problem taking care of our elderly sweetie pie, even giving me some thoughts on how to make things easier at my own house with her! We got pictures every day which I would not have expected but was nice since being boarded usually stresses Nina out so it gave me a piece of mind. She was so relaxed when I picked her up! I highly recommend! Thanks Erika!
Erika was an absolutely ideal caretaker for our dog. She is so experienced with animals and stayed in touch with pictures and videos the entire time. It was honestly a vacation for my dog because of the beautiful farm and other pups to play with! I will definitely use her again!
Erika was the absolute best! She kept us updated and sent pictures and videos the entire time. Our dogs had the best time and we can’t wait to take them back to let them play with her dogs and kids again!! I would recommend her 100xs over
Erika was absolutely amazing to have watch our dog Tanaris. She sent us daily pics and videos and kept in touch with us our whole vacation. I will 100% use her again for future sitting needs!
I can’t recommend Erika enough! She sent me updates and pictures throughout my pups stay. My dog was in the best care and I felt completely at ease. Will definitely book again!

I’m available any time for drop ins or walks. I do have a 2 year old at home so she will come with me usually for walks or drop ins during school hours.

A typical day
I love to take dogs for walks, do play time, brushing and petting sessions and anything the pet likes to do to make them the least stressed while their owner is absent.
