I make sure there's plenty to do when they're at my house. I have a lot of toys and dog beds that they can lay on. The fenced yard allows them to run around and get their energy out.

Information Erin M. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know any special routines, medication or how they get along with other dogs. I prefer that dogs older than 1 year be house trained so accidents aren't occuring. I understand senior dogs will have accidents though.

A typical day

Typically there area few dogs here each day so there is always another to play with. We spend a fair amount of time outside when the weather is nice. In the summer I have a splash pad and a small pool available for the dogs that love water. Inside there are plenty of toys that keep most dogs entertained.

Pet care experience

I am a dog lover and I have one of my own! I have a Black Lab puppy. Zoe is 2 now. I grew up with dogs and always will have one or two. We have a fenced yard to keep everyone safe. I can keep your dog busy and give it a lot of attention. We play a lot of ball around here and have buckets of toys. We go on walks and I am always up to take another one! I am reliable and know how often they need to go out. I'd love to help you in a pinch and need someone for your dogs. I am willing to come to your place or they can come to mine. I can accommodate if they need anything special as well.

This is the second time I've booked with Erin and she has always a done a good job of taking care of my dog. She usually sends photos daily and my dog seems to have a good time when she boards her.

Erin was great! Our dog settled in well and she was worn out after the stay playing with the dogs. I would definitely book with her again!
