Attentive and Loving ☺️

Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover who grew up with dogs ranging from 75 to 165 pounds, so I'm comfortable with larger breeds and all the unique personalities that come with them. Over the years, I've also dog sat for friends, family, and others, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog's individual quirks and routines. I care for every dog as if they were my own. I enjoy taking dogs on two walks a day and making sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and love. If your pup is a snuggle bug, they can expect lots of cuddles! If they prefer their own space, I'm happy to follow their lead. I'm also comfortable administering medications and following any specific routines or care instructions to help your dog feel safe, happy, and at home. I love spoiling my furry guests because they're on vacation too! Please bring your dog's food, treats, and any favorite toys or comfort items so I can help make their stay feel familiar and extra special. If my calendar says I'm unavailable, feel free to send me a message anyway. I'm flexible when I can be and am always happy to see if we can find a time that works. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member!

Erika and Jason were wonderful! They asked thoughtful questions to make sure our dog had the best time. Our girl is reactive and has a past, and Erika was so wonderful and patient and considerate of that. I’d recommend her to anyone!

Erika is great, and our pup loves spending time with her! Even while it was super hot outside (so walks weren't as safe), and when there were lots of fireworks (very scary for our dog), we knew he was being taken care of so well.

Erika was so great with our pup! We loved getting updates and knowing he was living his best life (hanging in the yard, meeting new friends, getting lots of snuggles, etc!), and we appreciated Erika's communication, especially when some rainstorms were making him really anxious. 😭 We felt at ease knowing he was in such good hands.

Erika has watched our dog a couple times now and she always does a great job keeping us updated and giving our dog lots of attention and love. We will definitely have her watch our dog again😊

Erika did an awesome job caring for our pup for 2 weeks! We will definitely use her in the future. She clearly pampered our pup and sent us lots of updates about when they were going on walks vs getting snuggles inside due to the cold.

Erika was great and took wonderful care of Ace! She sent photos and updates at least once-a-day and sometimes more. We were able to leave our dog with her with confidence and will definitely book with her again next time we leave town.

Schedule

I am a social worker and work in and out of the house throughout the week and home most weekends. We have a fenced yard and love the freedom to play with the dogs and let them run around.

Safety, trust & environment

I like to take care of basic needs and when allowed by owners, I like to spoil them with playing in our fenced yard and snuggles

A typical day

I ask if owners could leave one or two of their favorite dog toys so we can play tug-o-war or catch and live in a great neighborhood to go on walks!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, I prefer to do a meet and greet before committing to watching or walking your dog. I’m not worried about that not going well, just want to put dog and owner at ease! Also, if I do not have availability up, I will do my best to keep that updated, but always open to being flexible!
