We're glad we've found Erika! Roscoe (my dog) really enjoys his walks with her. You have to be very patient to walk Roscoe and Erika seems to have the gift. She has exeeded our requests and has been incredibly flexible with our last minute schedulings. She is easy to communicate with and trustworthy. I'm content and feel my furbaby is in safe, lovable hands when Erika walks him :).

About: I believe dogs can tell when you truly care about them. I will give your dog plenty of love and attention, whether that be walks, time in the yard, time on the couch, or belly rubs. I take lots of pictures to let the owner know that their pup is having a good time in my care. I also am diligent to follow any care instructions provided to me and to create a safe and fun environment for all the pets entrusted to me. I have owned at least one dog for over 20 years, starting with the family pet as a young girl. I have always taken on the main responsibilities of caring for the family dog and now have two of my own, Nacho and Toby. My husband is a nurse and can administer medication as well. I love all breeds and am open to caring for any size pet. My husband and I have used Rover on multiple occasions for our own pets when we went out of town and have always had good experiences. I am privileged to have a yard and a schedule that allows me to take excellent care of other people's dogs as well. I am currently staying home with my kiddos and will have plenty of time to care for your fur baby as well! Our “grandpa golden” golden retriever is our only fur baby right now, and is a patient and sweet companion for any dog! We have a fenced in yard and a sweet golden retriever to keep your fur baby company and would welcome your dog into our home! We can crate your dog upon request, but usually expect your pet to enjoy our home and yard alongside our family. We will treat your baby as one of our own!

About: Hi!! I’m Samaya!! Growing up in a home full of pets, I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, which has given me a deep understanding of their needs and behaviors. I have hands on experience with puppy training basics, including crate training, housebreaking, and leash guidance, as well as with senior dogs who require patience, mobility support, and medication administration. I take pride in maintaining a structured, safe, and comfortable environment tailored to each dog’s individual needs. Whether it’s reinforcing positive behaviors, providing consistent routines, or offering calm reassurance, I approach every pup with professionalism and genuine care. My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind knowing their dog is not only safe, but also receiving attentive, compassionate, and high quality care in their absence. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine because I am available full time to care for dogs. This allows me to provide consistent attention, regular walks, timely feedings, and plenty of playtime throughout the day. Having the flexibility to focus solely on pet care ensures that each dog in my care receives the structure, companionship, and supervision they need to feel safe and comfortable. I primarily care for pets in their own home, where they are most comfortable and can stay on their regular routine. This allows me to provide consistent care feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and any special instructions without disrupting their environment. I provide a safe, comfortable, and structured home environment for dogs while their owners are away. Each guest receives personalized care based on their individual needs and routines, ensuring a smooth and stress-free stay. My home is clean, secure, and designed to make pets feel relaxed and welcome. Daily exercise, playtime, and supervision are included, along with regular updates for peace of mind. Whether your dog is energetic or prefers a calm space, I offer attentive care and a reliable, professional experience you can trust. No matter the setting, my priority is to ensure each pet feels safe, cared for, and loved while their owner is away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid, so I have plenty of experience. I also own a 5 month old mini aussiedoodle who is great with other small/medium sized dogs. She is crate trained, sleep trained, potty trained, and leash trained. I have lots of experience with dog training and have done a lot of research on it! I work from home full time, so I will be able to give potty breaks as often as I need to. I typically take Callie (my dog) to the park 2-3x a day and out to go potty every couple hours. I care for my pets in my home by making sure I ask all of the necessary questions beforehand. I make sure they are fed, enjoy their time with me, and get all their zoomies out at the park!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets through personal and family settings, including feeding, walking, basic grooming, playtime, and providing companionship. I am attentive, patient, and mindful of each pet’s unique needs and routines. I understand the importance of safety, consistency, and trust when caring for animals. What sets me apart is my empathy, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I take the time to observe behavior, respond calmly to challenges, and ensure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I am highly adaptable, organized, and committed to following instructions closely while maintaining clear communication with pet owners. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I would give my own. I feel I can fit pet care into my weekly/daily routine because I’m free most of the time and Ive been looking for something productive too do that I’d actually enjoy I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect, whether they are in my home or a client’s home. I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment by following routines, paying close attention to each pet’s needs, and ensuring they feel secure and cared for.

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, patience, and attention I give to each pet as an individual. I don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. I take time to learn every pet’s routine, personality, energy level, and comfort needs so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I’m especially attentive to behavior and body language, which helps me respond quickly if a pet is stressed, anxious, or needs extra support. For dogs, that means consistent routines, safe walks, positive reinforcement, and plenty of engagement. For cats, it means respecting their space, maintaining a calm environment, and offering affection on their terms. Communication is also a big differentiator for me. I provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so pet parents feel at ease. I treat every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing safety, cleanliness, and emotional well-being at all times. I work from home most days as a business owner. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around feeding times, walks, playtime, and check-ins to make sure each pet receives consistent care and attention. I’m very organized and reliable, so pets can stay on their normal routine, which helps reduce stress while their owners are away. Throughout the day, I make time for exercise, companionship, cleaning litter boxes, refreshing food and water, and monitoring each pet’s wellbeing. I also build in time for updates to pet parents, including photos and notes. Because I prioritize pet care, I’m flexible and able to adjust my routine to meet each pet’s specific needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and focus on keeping the pet’s routine consistent. This includes feeding, walks, litter box maintenance, playtime, medication administration if needed, and companionship. I also keep the home tidy, bring in mail if requested, and provide regular updates with photos and notes so pet parents feel confident and informed.

About: I have taken care of a wide veriaty of animals since I was very young! I personally have two dogs and a cat that I love, and I love taking care of my friends and family’s pets because I think every animal deserves the love and the care that they deserve. I’m a full time student but have the available days to take care of the pet’s daily needs and making sure they are doing good. Making sure the pet’s are safe whether they are inside or outside is a big priority to me, because when you put your trust in me you also put your trust in my care for your animal. Feeding and playing with them will definitely also be my highest priority next to their safety.

I’m available around the clock and ready to help whenever you need. We have a beautiful, spacious home with a large backyard featuring two dog runs, providing plenty of room for your pet to play and take bathroom breaks!
