Let me know about special needs, boundaries on food, treats and activity. I want to ensure the most seamless transitions for your baby. Let me know commands and best approach for enforcing rules while you’re away. I hope we can meet soon!

A typical day

I love going on fun walks through neighborhoods and look at all the beauty your pet is experiencing. The smells, sounds, views and fresh air. I give doggy massages, brushing, belly rubs and cuddles!

Erika took good care of Bentley while he was with her. She sent lots of good pictures of him having a great time. Her house was clean and setup for safe dog sitting.

I would leave my dog with Erika any day of the week! Loved the constant photo updates and how much she cared for her. I was worry free being away

Erika and her family are absolutely lovely! Our dog Cooper stayed with her and had such an amazing time. The communication, photos, and videos were all perfect. I could not be happier with the experience! I would choose boarding with her over anything. 10/10
