😁Hopefully this section answers your (possible) availability questions. Thank you!😄 It’s much easier to catch me in the morning/day. My regular job posts the schedule for the following week every single Friday. Sometimes they post one week, sometimes they post for the upcoming two. Either way, I'm here for a one-time booking or becoming your regular care provider! I’m reliable, respectful, punctual, and communicative. I work part-time ***mostly on UNSET weeknights (unavailable by 4:15PM if I work that day).***Weekends vary quite considerably by day AND night due to that aforementioned “9-5” job, and I take classes online as well (flexible).*** That being said, I do my absolute best to try and accommodate by offering: 1. Flexible last-minute bookings and requests, 2. Responding within 5-10 minutes ***max*** (if I ain’t at work), 3. availability for meet & greets, if needed, and 4. ensuring to incorporate photo updates throughout. Communication is key! And truth be told, I’d rather be doing this than waiting tables. 😹🐕

I'm located in Rampart Village/Westlake, immediately west of DTLA. I treat pets as babies. I even call them "baby" when I speak to them, no matter what size, no matter what species, no matter what age, BUT if you need a bit more neutral language, that ain't an issue at all! And if there are any circumstances that require my attention in terms of unique care, I follow those instructions 100% of the time. I'm deeply respectful of pets and their owners. Again, communication is imperative to me!

Information Eric C. would like to know about your pet

I'd presume that if your baby/babies got any special needs, that you’ll inform me. I’ll always over-communicate as well, to ensure I understand what is required to provide the best care possible, no questions asked. I aim to extract as much information as is possible beforehand too, just to reinforce that y'all are in good hands!

A typical day

For walking: note that I always bring extra large collapsible water bowls as well as extra large collapsible water bottles with me/us, as insurance! That, and I like to map out routes to take beforehand, surveying the neighborhood(s) and using map apps to explore what’s around them. I’m also always ensuring they ain’t eating random stuff on our path. I adjust myself to the nature and personality of each and every individual pet, whether it’s playtime, snuggling and cuddling, making special needs pets know they are loved, whatever that may require, or just walking the block—I’m there. I’m here to facilitate the best day ever! And I’m very malleable, easy to work with. We'll have a great time!

Pet care experience

😁Please make sure you’re booking for the correct service. Thank you!😄 I've had countless (family) dogs over the years, since 2004. I currently have an orange tabby (cat) named Klage, that I adopted at two-months-old, back in late 2019. I LOVE getting to meet people's pets. It's one of my many joys in life. Their purity is so moving. Suffice to say, I have a trove of experience providing care, including for those whom are anxious and need a little extra love. I can also train dogs, though I ain't officially certified nor is it a service I provide, just for your information, know that the skill set and experience are there. Also: I'm open to helping you out if you're pet's an animal other than dog or cat!

Eric does such a phenomenal job when he comes to take care of precious oug, Fiona. I’m an actor, and had a very busy and chaotic schedule. Sometimes I leave town (for work or for acting jobs), and when I do, Eric is always there to help look after Fiona when I’m gone. She has some separation anxiety and Eric handles her with the most care, giving her exactly what she needs. Eric would absolutely thrive with jobs like this, and knowing how my Fiona responds to him, it’s safe to say that he’ll make even more furry friends along the way!
