Working from home with my dog, our day starts with cuddle and playtime. I stick to a consistent feeding schedule, fill our time with fun activities, ensure my dog gets plenty of socialization, stay on top of grooming, and schedule regular vet visits to keep my furry friend healthy and happy.

Information Erin M. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for your pets, I need to know: Health Details: Any health issues, allergies, medications, and vaccination status. Behavior: Their temperament, reactions to strangers or animals, and specific triggers. Diet: Their feeding schedule, special dietary needs, and portion sizes. Exercise Needs: Their required exercise level and any physical limitations. Routine: Daily schedule including walk and playtimes. Emergency Contacts: Your vet's details and an emergency contact. Special Instructions: Any specific care needs, commands, or grooming requirements. Comfort Items: Favorite toys or items that help them feel at ease.
A typical day
My typical day with your pets includes morning and evening walks, interactive play sessions like fetch or tug-of-war, and social activities like dog park visits for those who enjoy company. We might also go on a nature hike for some adventure. Pets receive their meals on time, followed by rest or nap times. The day ends with a relaxed walk and cuddle time, ensuring they feel loved and secure. Throughout the day, I focus on positive reinforcement and cater to each pet's unique needs, be it exercise for energetic ones or extra care for anxious pets. My goal is to make their day fun, loving, and comfortable.

Pet care experience
I have over 30 years of experience caring for pets, both professionally and as a volunteer, and I’m committed to making sure your dog feels safe, loved, and well taken care of. I specialize in boarding and doggy daycare, giving your pup constant supervision and companionship in my home. With a fenced yard, there’s plenty of space for play and exercise. I also offer drop-in visits and walks to keep up with your dog’s need for activity and social time. Since I work from home, I’m flexible and able to welcome new clients, making sure your dog gets the attention they deserve. I’m known for being reliable and communicative, and I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.

Chai had a blast and I was happy with her stay! Would use again for sure. Very flexible and communicative.

Erin was so kind and easy to coordinate with for my dog’s daycare. Her home has a great fenced in yard and her two little dogs were so sweet and got along great with mine. Communication was a breeze and she made sure to send pics while I was gone. Would recommend!

Zoey has not had a lot of socializing, but she did fantastic with Erin and her dogs. Will entrust her to Erin's care again💝

They take amazing care of Murphy! Highly recommend!
