Pet care experience
I grew up with 2 rescue SPCA dogs, 2 salamanders & a cat..I have always loved animals, our close family friend was a professional dog trainer & my Uncle’s/Grandpa always had black labs trained as bird dogs. In 2020 I professionally walked dogs for Whistler Dog Walkers entrusted with hiking trails 4km + with up to 10 different families dogs at once, off leash + p/u, drop & cleans twice a day. I have also worked with Apex Protection Project (Wolf Sanctuary), trained to care for horses at YMCA Camp Cheif Hector. Worked for a season at Canadian Wilderness Adventures with their dogsledding teams. I can dog sit your pet solo if required or if it gets along with other dogs I have a 4 month old female black lab mix that has the most playful, adventurous, gentle demeanour that can join! (If not I have separate care for her so your dog gets 1 on 1 special care).
Reviews
Eric is great dog caregiver - lots of walks and good with our senior dog. Gia love playing with Whiskey,Eric’s dog. Very calm environment. Thanks Eric!
Eric watched Kyro for the weekend, it was our first time away from him, we felt really comfortable leaving him with Eric, got a lot of pictures and updates and overall Kyro had a great time!
Schooner had a wonderful time with Eric and came back happy and tired. I would definitely have him stay with Eric again!
Eric did an amazing job looking after Theo! He was very responsive and sent us lots of photos. Theo had so much fun; I am sure he is already looking forward to staying over again!
