Pet care experience

I love dogs I have 3 myself!

What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience with both puppies and senior dogs. I’ve raised several puppies, so I understand their unique needs, including socialization, training, and development. I also have a 13-year-old Chihuahua, which gives me firsthand experience caring for senior dogs and addressing their specific health and comfort requirements. Whether it’s administering medication, providing gentle exercise, or ensuring they feel safe and loved, I’m dedicated to giving each dog the individualized care they need, at every stage of life.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I do not bring pets to my home since I have three dogs of my own, but I offer in-home care where I will treat your pet as if they were my own. At your home, I will provide the same level of attention, affection, and care that I give my own pets. I ensure that pets are comfortable, safe, and well-cared for in their familiar environment, whether it's through feeding, playtime, walks, or just keeping them company. Your pet’s well-being and happiness are my top priority.

My wife Erika and I have 3 dogs together. She's been the spearhead in making sure our dogs are cared for and properly trained. Our dogs are very lucky to have her. She has a proven track record of dog-sitting for friends and family, consistently treating their pets with the love and care they deserve, just as she would our own.

I couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter than Erika! She’s been an incredible “aunt” to my two dogs, Bella and Buddy, treating them like her own. Erika is also a loving and attentive dog mom to her pups, Chai and Boba, who we lovingly call Bella and Buddy’s cousins. Erika has a natural gift for connecting with dogs. She’s patient, nurturing, and always ensures their safety and happiness. Whether it’s taking them for walks, playing their favorite games, or just cuddling up for some quality time, Erika’s care is unmatched. My dogs absolutely adore her and get so excited every time they see her. I trust Erika completely to care for my pups. She’s responsible, dependable, and has a true passion for animals. I’ve also seen her interact with other dogs, and she has the same level of love and dedication for every pup she meets. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your dogs like family, Erika is the one to call!

Erika has cared for my golden retriever, Finn, for me in the past and done a fantastic job! He tends to be skittish at first but warmed up to her right and seemed totally at ease with her. I can’t recommend Erika enough as a petsitter.
