Hi!! I’m Erika, the founder of Ruff & Roam Co. 🤍
I was born and raised in New Hampshire, and moved to Tampa five years ago to attend the University of Tampa. After graduating, I stepped into the corporate world only to realize it wasn’t where my passion truly was.
My passion has always been waiting for me at home, my basset hound, Millie.
Over the past few years, I’ve spent so much time exploring everything Tampa has to offer and I kept coming back to the same thought: our dogs deserve more. More than quick walks around the block. More than hot pavement in the Florida heat. More than the same routine every day.
After years of caring for dogs and seeing how much they truly thrive outside of the typical neighborhood walk, I knew I wanted to create something different, something better.
Ruff & Roam Co. is all about getting dogs off the pavement and into nature. Think pack walks, trail adventures, beach days, and real enrichment.
Because the truth is, your dog only sees the world you show them. And they deserve more.
We’ll be offering:
🐾 Pack-based outdoor adventures
🐾 No pavement routes
🐾 Pickup + drop-off
🐾 Safe, structured socialization
🐾 & more
If you’re in Tampa and want your dog to join the pack or just want to learn more send me a message. I’d love to meet you 🤍
