Dog Trainer, Vet Tech, Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I’ve had pets all of my life. When I was 12, I got my very own dog to care for and haven’t gone back! I worked in the veterinary field for almost 10 years, so pet care is of top priority. I co-own APK9, so I am a full time dog trainer as well.

I have known Erika and Dollie for several years and they are one of the very few that I would trust completely to care for my dogs. They are patient, caring, and responsible individuals. Their knowledge of animal behavior and temperaments is also very reassuring. Having a dog with a neurological disease, it is scary leaving him in the hands of someone else, but I never worry about him when he’s with them. He is always well taken care of, and never treated any differently than the rest. Could not recommend them more to care for your fur babies.

Erika goes above and beyond! She takes time to make sure that they get exercise, as well as plenty of play time. She has cared for my dogs and I don’t think I would feel comfortable with anyone else but Erika.

Erika has been our pets caregiver for over 10 years now. Being a dog owner herself, Erika not only understands the details that come with caring for a pet, she really does adore the animals! She stays in contact with us while we’re away and always sends pictures and videos. Our animals always seem comfortable and happy when she is around. 100% recommend her and will re-book with her for every sitter need!

Erika has loved my dogs as her own! She’s trustworthy and will snuggle and love on your babies as her own! She is also exceptional at training dogs and will keep your animals mentally stimulated while in her care!

Information Erika R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any behavioral issues I should be aware of. Do they like other dogs? Do they like to chase cars or small critters? Do they need medications and do I need to administer them? Anything you think I need to know or you just want to share, feel free!

A typical day

Activities are all based around your dogs needs! Do they just need a walk around the neighborhood or do they need some mental stimulation? Puzzle toys are a great start and general play is the best!
