Safety, trust & environment

I have a nice large fenced in yard that's essentially a mini dog park! There's a nice long grassy run area and even a gravel driveway if your dogs prefer to go to potty there. Indoors, I have a good sized living room where dogs can play fetch through the kitchen and wrestle on the couch if they want. I have plenty of extra crates and pens to allow dogs to nap or eat in peace.

Information Eric L. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any quirks that I need to be aware of and I will make sure to accommodate. It can be heavy resource guarding or being too excited with certain other breeds. I will try to make sure your dog can life their best life!

A typical day

My favorite thing is watching dogs play, so there is plenty of play time while your dogs are here. Potty breaks are also play times. Usually 15mins on a rainy day or 45-60mins if it's nice out. Dogs are usually pretty tired afterwards and will fall asleep quickly once indoors.

Fun Dog Dad + Mini Dog Park Host

Pet care experience

My house is part doggy daycare and part dog park all-in-one. I make a huge effort to ensure all dogs not only are cared for, but also get along with others and are able to enjoy as much play time as possible. I'm lucky to have a nice sized yard, so I would love to have your dog take advantage of the mini dog park. Even if you're dog doesn't easily get along with other dogs, I will work hard to slowly and comfortably let them to break through their shells and start to get along either others. In addition to caring for my own two Mini Dachshunds, I've also sat/boarded dogs from 7 to 80lbs. I always try my best to give dogs an opportunity to live their best lives regardless of their quirks. For more chill or anxious dogs, I'm happy to leave you be and make sure you aren't bothered. For more adventurous or energetic dogs, I'll make sure they're highly entertained and stimulated. The dog park is also nearby or we may have to go for a jog or a short hike. I also naturally love to document my dogs having a great time, so expect pictures and/or videos of yours!

Eric was able to take Gouda last minute. He met us at my car when we pulled up and was very friendly. Within about an hour and a half of me dropping him off, Eric sent a bunch of photos and let us know that he did well. It looks like Gouda had a lot of fun from the pictures.

Had another great experience boarding my dogs with Eric! I appreciate knowing that my dogs get lots of exercise and stimulation when staying with him, and love seeing the daily batch of photos he sends. His communication is top-notch, and he’s been very accommodating and flexible when our plans change. I highly recommend Eric!

My dogs had another fantastic day romping around at Eric’s! They always enjoy spending the day there, and it’s a very valuable option for me to have. Eric’s consistent communication and flexibility are always appreciated
