Eric is so reliable, responsible and caring of our dog Ozzie. He takes him for a walk on the Lincoln Park Zoo Boardwalk on most days and Ozzie loves it and him.

Eric is the best!! He took the best care of my dog and sent the best updates during their walks. I would recommend Eric to anyone and will 100% be using him again in the future.

Eric is an amazing dog walker! We used him for about a year, and would still use him if we hadn’t moved! He always gave Maury lots of love and made sure he was safe and happy on his walks.

Schedule

I currently have one midday walk openings for pups that need 4/5 walks per week near Oz Park or nearby Lincoln Park- I have been a dog walker in this area for ten years!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Eric can host up to 3 walks per day
My questions for new clients would include- Does your dog regularly display aggressive behavior towards other dogs on leash? What does their typical walk look like? And how regular of a dog walker are you looking for?
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
