About: I have more than 4 decades of experience loving and spoiling dogs, including seniors, puppies, and those who have separation anxiety. I understand every animal is unique and work hard to get to know each pet well so I can provide the best care possible. I am comfortable administering eye/ear drops and oral medication. If you have a puppy, I am happy to reinforce potty training and basic skills with a positive and patient approach. I guarantee your fur babies will be cared for as if they were my own!

“Erica has been so patient and accommodating to me and my sweet pup. Penny takes time to warm up to people and Erica went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable (bringing her treats, playing from a distance prior to walk, etc.) I definitely recommend her! Penny is beyond excited when she sees Erica now !”

“Jennifer was great! Riley loved her! He came back from his walk and crashed just as I wanted him to do. She sent me a picture during the walk and I could see in his face that he was happy. Jennifer is very personable and we will definitely call her again in the future!”

About: I love animals and have a pretty flexible schedule for boarding, care-taking, or walking services. I love being outdoors but am also a home body at heart, which is why boarding is very fun for me. I’m a teacher, so summers and breaks during the year are great times I can commit a lot of for pet care. I also get off work earlier than most, so I would be around for early afternoon walks. I’m home most weekends which is when boarding would work best for me. I don’t have any other pets at my home so there would not be any issues with other animals. I am also very trustworthy if needed to be at a client’s home.

“Haily was absolutely wonderful, and I can’t recommend her enough! She took care of my 14 year old Maltese Poodle, Sisco, for a week while I was in Colorado, walking him twice a day and making sure he was fed and well cared for. Normally, I have family watch him because he tends to get anxious when I’m away, so I was a little nervous leaving him with someone new. Haily completely put my mind at ease. She was so kind and patient with him, and it was obvious from all the updates, photos, and detailed commentary that she genuinely cared about him. Seeing how happy and comfortable Sisco looked in every picture meant so much to me. It made being away from him so much easier, and I knew he was in great hands. Thank you, Haily, for taking such amazing care of my little guy. I would absolutely book with you again!”
