Pet care experience

Paws up and tails wagging!

I have walked and have had overnight stays with my neighbors dogs for 6 years now. From big dogs to small dogs and even cats! I prefer no aggressive breeds(pits, shepherds, no huskies etc) I am pretty free during the week now that my daughter has started school. I am a musician also so I am out of town sometimes for shows and gigs, but I do have free time too! If I am not here my parents are wonderful at caring for dogs and have a ton experience so they can also watch your dogs. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do have a big yard and there are great walking trails around my house. There is also a doggy park near by. I do have an indoor/outdoor cat, but he is chill and warms up easily.

Erika did an excellent job on short notice taking of our unspayed female golden retriever for 10 days! We got pictures every day of them outside taking a walk. We really appreciate how easy it was to work with Erika! She was very understanding and caring and I knew Dallas would be well taken care of. Thank you, Erika!

Erika was great, she was able to take care of Stella last minute due to an unexpected change in plans for our trip. She was responsive and sent pictures of her daily, which help put us at ease. Would work with her again and recommend to other.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not have a fenced yard and keep all dogs on a leash whenever I am outside. They are able to run free in my home though!

A typical day

I would take your dog on walks or runs. I live in forest area where there are cool trails and awesome scenery. Playing fun stimulating games is also something I do also!

16 to 40 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only

Let me know what kind of special needs your dog has and I can accommodate. If your dog needs a medicine, if they have separation anxiety, if there is a behavior I have to look out for, if they get along with other dogs/cats/people, and anything else that might concern you with their stay:) Must be potty trained also!
