“We’ve had the good fortune to have Eric watch our dog while we go on vacation for the past few years, first year with Rover. He is far and above our first choice in dog care, and is worth every penny. Eric is fantastic and goes above and beyond to make sure our Jack is calm and happy while we are away. We always come home to a happy content pet and a super clean home. He has great communication and lets us know how Jack is doing. And, he’s just a really nice person who cares. Thanks again, Eric, for letting us all have a great vacation!”

About: I've always been surrounded with animals. Strays seem to gravitate towards me. I'd love to work professionally with dogs some day, for now I'm certified through YouTube University. I am medically trained with crossover training for dogs&cats. I work a few hours, some mornings, otherwise I'm free to wonder around with the dogs My work schedule varies week to week but on average I work 4 hour shifts 2 - 7 days a week. Plenty of extra time. Dogs off leash ONLY if approved by owner and after dog shows trust. I have two dogs myself, all dogs can remain separated if needed.
