You’re In Good Loving Paws

Pet care experience

Every fur mom or fur dad wants to know that their fur baby is in good capable paws. Every fur mom and fur dad also hopes their dog sitter will love and care for their fur baby as their own while they are traveling or at work. Because the love and connection to a furbaby is so very special, I strive to provide exactly this kind of experience for my "furfamilies". Pups that stay in my home quickly become part of the pack. They enjoy the comforts of my cozy home, sleep in the bed, lounge on the couch, take generous walks, and receive unlimited snuggles & unconditional love from me and my side kick aka side pups, Magda Gabor - a spunky Jackahuahua (jack russell terrier + chihuahua) and Papichulo - a mischievous mutt that both humans and local 4 legged friends absolutely adore. Pups also enjoy lots of play time, participate in school time where we practice basic commands such as "sit", "down", "stay", "dance", and "come", and also go on field trips to dog-friendly spots around the Bay Area such as local festivals, fairs, or even the woods. I especially LOVE dogs with big personalities, unique styles & quirks, and one-of-a-kind approaches to living their best #furlife. All "furmoms", "furdads", and "furfamilys" receive frequent updates and pictures of their pup's daily adventures, antics, and experiences. I have been a Rover sitter since 2017. My furclients stay for short-term stays such as a night or two as well as long-term stays (i.e. 30+ stays) and everything in between. I specialize in small and medium size dogs both young and old. I have a flexible schedule that can be customized to meet your dog’s unique care needs. My home is centrally located to local parks as well as transportation hubs such as Bart and the airport, which makes pick up and drop off easy. Magda, Papi, and I look forward to welcoming you and your furbaby into my home. Contact me directly to work out special pricing for long-term stays or multiple fursiblings.

Erika has a great place for dogs and her fur babies were welcoming of mine. Loved her daily reports. Will definitely use her again!

Erika is amazing! She welcomed Bodie into her home and treated him like one of her own. Her dedication and care are clearly evident and Bodie had a great time. Will work with Erika again and again!

Erika was great. My dog had a blast with her and her two dogs. Will not hesitate to rebook. I think my dog was a little sad to have her furcation end!
