Safety, trust & environment

Safety is a number one priority. I do prefer to set up a meet and greet with your pet(s) to make sure that everybody gets along. It will also allow me to become familiar with the environment in case of any emergency. At home I care for a 1.5 year old dog who is very active and has to be constantly monitored because she is a heavy chewer. She's always curious and exploring so I always keep an eye on her. Your pets and others safety is very important to me and I would treat yours as my own.

Information Eric G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet(s) have any special needs or requires extra care beforehand. Again I do prefer to set up meet and greets so we can become familiar with each other and the surroundings.

A typical day

Really any activities (as long as they are safe) are on the table. Fetch, tug of war, walks, dog parks, or anything that you might prefer I can do. My dog Remi loves to play fetch and go to the dog park so we do that often.

Animals are family

Pet care experience

Over the years I've had many dogs to care for as part of my family. Pets need activity and I enjoy taking them out places like parks, greenways, or just a simple walk in the neighborhood. I've dealt with pets of all ages from stubborn energetic newborn puppies to sensitive senior dogs. I also have experience administering care and medicine for elderly dogs in need.

Our pets are like family, and trusting someone else with their care can be a big decision. While traveling earlier this year, someone recommended Rover.com for my dogs. I decided to take a chance and met with Eric in person about two weeks before my vacation. My dogs loved him instantly! That visit eased all of my concerns about their care. Eric was always during the time I requested. Promptly feeding/caring for my dogs demonstrates his commitment to their care and well-being. I'm a big fan of the visit report card and photos! Thank you Eric for taking care of my babies! You've made several new friends!

Eric G. is a great dog person. He is reliable, caring, & loves to play with & walk dogs. They respond very well to him. I totally recommend Eric & if you need a dog walker for your dog/s you should reach out to him. You & your dog/s will be happy that you did.

Eric is amazing with our dogs. He is patient and obviously cares that they get the love and attention they need. We feel very comfortable that Eric will care for our dogs like we would.

Eric is an energetic dog lover. He has cared for my dog on several occasions. He is willing (and able) to run with or walk your dog, throw a ball for fetch, or play tug-o-war.
