Your dog's mental and physical health is my top priority. I provide stimulating activities and exercise, such as games and dog park visits, to ensure their energy is productively utilized.

Pet care experience

With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, I am confident in my ability to provide exceptional canine care. My expertise spans from Yorkshire Terriers to Pit Bulls, and I have successfully raised six puppies from birth to 12 weeks.

I am adaptable and dedicated to meeting your dogs' needs.

Erika was amazing!! I knew Tulla was in good hands. She sent pictures, loved her as if she was her own, and took great care of her. I will for sure be using her again!!!

I am so thankful for Erika! Our 16 year old pup is not used to us being gone and was worried about how she would deal with us being away for 10 days. Well, I had nothing to worry about, Erika kept her routine and was comfortable giving her all her medications. We enjoyed getting pictures and reports of how she was doing and knew she was in good hands. When we came home Misty was content and happy.
