Pet care experience

I love dogs — All Dog Sizes Welcome

I care for every dog like they are my own. I’ve been dog sitting and caring for dogs since I was 10 years old, and I’ve worked with a wide range of breeds, sizes, and personalities — from small dogs like Shih Tzus, Yorkies, and Chihuahuas to larger breeds like Boxers, Pit Bulls, and Golden Retrievers. I don’t just “watch” dogs — I focus on making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and at home while you’re away. I follow each dog’s routine for feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and rest so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. I provide a spacious, secure environment with a fenced yard, plenty of room to move around, and a calm home atmosphere. I also offer crates if needed, along with toys, treats, and blankets to keep your dog comfortable and entertained. I’m available for overnight boarding, daycare, and evening or weekend care, and I always make sure your dog receives plenty of attention, affection, and supervision. You’ll also receive regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your pup is in good hands.

Eric was so amazing with Remi! He was so patient with him and my boy was absolutely ready to go to him. I hope to continue with Eric in the future.

This is our 3rd time booking with Eric in the past 6 months. He is extremely reliable, responds quickly, and takes great care of Macy. He sends videos and never fails to keep us updated. We can tell he really loves dogs and is passionate about caring for them.

I was extremely nervous leaving my dog because I've never left him with anyone before. To make matters worse, he clearly didn't want to stay when I dropped him off, which made me even more anxious. However, my worries quickly disappeared. They were incredibly patient and caring, and it wasn't long before he settled in and was completely fine. Throughout his stay, they kept me updated with pictures and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind and let me see how comfortable and happy he was. It was clear he was being well cared for and getting plenty of attention. I couldn't have asked for a better first experience leaving him with a sitter. I highly recommend him and would absolutely trust him with Rocco again.

This is our second time booking with Eric! We had a super last minute trip and we texted Eric the day before we had to leave. He responded immediately, ready to take our dog in. He is super attentive and responds to messages right away. He kept us updated with pictures and videos as well. Amazing dog sitter!!!

Schedule

Pet care is a central part of my daily routine, and dogs in my care are never treated like an afterthought. I work remotely, which allows me to be home and available throughout the day to provide supervision, potty breaks, feeding, and attention. This means dogs are not left alone for long periods and always have someone nearby to check on them, interact with them, and make sure they are comfortable and safe. In addition, I have a trusted family support system, including my mom, uncles and grandparents, who help provide extra supervision and companionship when needed. Dogs staying with me receive consistent care, structure, and attention all day long, not just in the mornings or evenings. This allows me to provide reliable overnight boarding and daycare in a calm, home-style environment.

Safety, trust & environment

When pets stay in my home, they are treated like part of the family in a calm, safe, and supervised environment. I focus on keeping their routine as close to home as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed. I follow all feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication instructions, and any special care requests exactly as provided. Dogs get a healthy balance of playtime, walks, rest, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. I provide a secure, clean, and spacious home with a fenced yard for safe outdoor time, along with toys, blankets, and crates if needed. Dogs are never left unsupervised outside, and I carefully manage interactions between dogs to make sure everyone stays safe and happy. I also send regular photo and video updates so owners always know how their dog is doing. My goal is for every pet to feel calm, cared for, and at home while you’re away, and for every owner to feel complete peace of mind.

A typical day

A typical day with me is structured, calm, and fun so dogs feel safe and relaxed while still getting plenty of activity. The day starts with potty breaks and breakfast, followed by supervised playtime and light exercise. Throughout the day, dogs enjoy a mix of backyard play, short walks around the neighborhood, and indoor rest time depending on their energy level. I rotate between play, training, and relaxation so dogs don’t get overstimulated or anxious. I make sure every dog gets individual attention, whether that means extra play, quiet cuddle time, or gentle training and reinforcement. Meals, potty breaks, and rest times are kept consistent to match your dog’s routine as closely as possible. In the evening, dogs settle down with dinner, calm activities, and comfortable rest so they feel safe and ready for a good night’s sleep.

To make sure your dog has the best and safest stay possible, I like to learn a few important details ahead of time. Please let me know your dog’s feeding schedule, potty routine, exercise level, and any special instructions. I also ask about medications, allergies, medical conditions, or dietary restrictions so I can care for your dog properly. It’s helpful to know how your dog behaves around other dogs, new people, loud noises, or being left alone, as well as any habits like chewing, barking, or anxiety. The more I know about your dog’s personality and needs, the better I can provide a calm, comfortable, and stress-free stay while you’re away.
