Pet care experience

I love mine, and I'll love yours!!

Quality loving care at an affordable price. I've cared for and trained dogs since I was 8. I've dealt with puppy's in all stages and have never been deterred yet. In college I was the person everyone messaged to help with training and setup for either a new pup or a rescue with an unknown past. I will love to work with any kind of animal. I've have experience in giving oral, injection, and suppository medications. As well ointments and lotions for skin condition or allergies. My own heeler has seasonal allergies that spur up occasionally, so I have experience. I also have experience in doing check ins with recently adopted/foster animals who aren't quiet settled yet or pups/cats that aren't fond of strangers, but their owners want to make sure they're okay throughout the day. I come prepared with approved high value treats, a calm demeanor, and the understanding that it will take time.

She goes absolutely above and beyond. Always sent photos and videos, was always on top of food, water, and litter. Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter

Erika was great! Kittie Kittie Meow Meow was well cared for; I was so grateful to get pictures every day of him just hanging out and relaxing. You could tell he was very comfortable with her, it was such a relief knowing he was in good hands. Communication was great, and the updates were much appreciated. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and takes her job seriously. I will definitely be requesting her again!

Schedule

I work from home, and constantly take my own dogs outside for fetch, sniffs, or just to chill. I'd love for them to have some companions to sun bathe and play with. I'm also active and love to walk and my own dogs get worn out with me, so I'd love to give some others dogs some walks throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard, and a secure pool that I allow supervised swim in. I also have a bathing station setup for when they get out. My three dogs are all well behaved, trained and super friendly. They're each very different so no matter if your pup is a sleeper, fetcher, or cuddler one of my three will definitely match its vibe. All my dogs know that outside time is play time and inside time is calm/chill time. Our schedule is usually wake up 1-2 hours of play, breakfast, nap(I work), potty breaks and some play time about every hour to hour and half, then a nice walk around 6pm-8pm(weather/heat is huge factor I never take them out when it's to hot and not safe) if walking can't happen due to heat we do a huge outdoor play session, then dinner. Couple of potty and play sessions before bed too. For animals with bladder issues I will also set alarms throughout the night to help them make it out as much as they need to prevent any accidents.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day starts out with about an hour or two of outside play. That includes fetch, scent/puzzle games, swimming(if weather permits) my Eevee loves it, and multiple tree tug of war stations for pulling enjoyment. After breakfast and a nap and some potty breaks and mini play sessions. We do a nice neighborhood walk that can range between a brisk 30min - 2 hours depending on weather and how energetic everyone is. With multiple sniff spots along the way. A full enclosed backyard allows for all the outside play wanted, and I have a concrete pool open when it's safe and SUPERVISED. I will not allow your dog to swim if you don't give permission, and if your dog does swim I will offer a free bathe if you approve of my bathing products.

Erika can host up to 6 pets per night
No breed preferences at all any dog of any size are welcome. When boarding or daycare they do have to be DOG and CAT FRIENDLY. Also if anything important needs to be done feel free to tell me and I will do it to the best of my ability, I've cared for all kinds of needs from shots to pills to special needs.
