Pet care experience
Leaving your best friend behind when you have to go out of town can be tough on the both of you. You want to make sure that your pup is cared for and looked after while you are gone, and there is no better place to leave him or her than with someone who is genuinely passionate about dogs. I have been a dog owner since I was seven years old, and have been hugging and introducing myself to every dog I could find even before that. About two years ago, I adopted a young mutt of my own, and have been working daily on building her confidence, training her, and showering her with love. I would love to watch your dogs and give them a buddy to romp around with while you're on a weekend getaway, and make sure they are well cared for in your absence. I have experience with shy, anxious, reactive, and fearful dogs and will work with you and your pup to make sure they are safe and comfortable! As long as you let me know their preferences, I can make sure they're well accommodated and cared for :) Hopefully I will get to meet you and your canine companion soon, I look forward to it!
Reviews
Erin filled the gaps to look over Poppins when we were out for a day. She provided us updates even before asking. My pup really enjoyed paying with hers. I am definitely considering her for future stays.
Erin was great with our 13 year old most cranky Sweetheart. He can be a challenge sometimes but Erin was amazing with him and he loved her ??
Erin is fantastic. She filled in for us at the last minute, is a great communicator, and was really great with our dogs.
Erin was absolutely wonderful to work with! She was very responsive, genuinely cares about dogs, and very patient with our shy guy, Mowgli. He seemed to have a good time and we would gladly call on her help again!

Information Erin N. would like to know about your pet
I'd love to know if your dog gets along well with dogs, including whether they tolerate puppies or have fears of certain breeds. I'd also like to know any triggers they may have (men, skateboards, etc), and of course any allergies. I always like to know owners' preferred training methods and make sure I am using the same commands. If your pup is a German Shepherd I'd like to do a more focused meet and greet - my dog is scared of (but not aggressive towards) germans at first, and needs a bit of time to warm up.
A typical day
I live right by Puptown and the lake, and can take your pup on (on-leash) walks or off-leash (fenced in) dog park romps. We also have an entire room dedicated to dog toys/fun that the pups can play in.
