Pet care experience

Your Home Away From Home

I’ve been caring for dogs, cats and rabbits my whole life. I’ve always had them and have even done 4-H with my dog and rabbits and was an advisor when I got older. 4-H taught me all about pet care and dog training and obedience.

Doggy Day Care • May 24, 2026

Erika was great. She really came through and Norman fell in love with her. So we’ll be back!

I’m so grateful to have found Erika! She is the sweetest and took incredible care of our Rylee as if she were her own. Erika kept us updated with pictures and texts, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. I truly appreciate that she was willing to follow Rylee’s routine to help her feel comfortable. We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter!

Erika is the sweetest! The first time our dog stayed with her overnight, we did a meet & greet at her house and she made him feel so welcome. He was excited to stay with her for the first time! She checked in often and reassured me throughout the process. I highly recommend Erika! You can tell her love for dogs shines.

Erika is fantastic! We had a late request due to our pup, Cal, having a cold and not being able to stay at our pre-planned boarding facility. I am so thankful Cal got to stay with Erika instead of being boarded. Erika was extremely understanding, is a great communicator, and loved on Cal while he was with her. She sent regular updates and pictures. We recently moved to the area and feel blessed that we found Erika so we have someone we trust for future needs. Thank you for everything, Erika!

Erika treats my dogs like her own. You can tell she cares deeply for animals and would never harm them. If I ever need anyone to check on the boys for me she stops in and will actually spend time with time. She doesn’t just let them out and leave. I always know they’re safe with her!

Erika is a wonderful dog sitter! She is a very kind and caring individual in general, but she is exceptional with animals. My dog (who is a very anxious and high strung Australian Shepherd) absolutely loves Erika and gets excited to be dropped off. She walks my dog multiple times a day and consistently checks in with updates. I cannot recommend her enough as a pet sitter!

Schedule

I’ve recently changed jobs so I can be home nights, weekends and holidays! This will allow me more time for watching your fur babies. I enjoy spending my free time on walks and being outside. Since I do work during the week, they will be home during the day and unable to go out. But once I am home, and on weekends, they can go out as often as they would like.

Safety, trust & environment

I don’t have any pets at this time so your fur baby will be the only one in the home. I keep things picked up and out of reach for safety. I believe in harnessing and leashing before going outside and making sure they are secured properly. I also will not feed your pet any human food or anything not approved by you.

A typical day

I love to spend time outside! We’ll go on many walks around the neighborhood and play with toys as well as dog puzzles when home.
