Doggy-Loving Host in Big House/Yard
Hello! I have had doggies my whole life. When neighbors and friends started needing some help 14 years ago, I started looking after their doggies too. I live in a large Craftsman house in Wallingford with a big, fenced yard. I am home all day and can walk your doggy frequently, including at Wallingford Playfield (1 block away), Meridian Park or even Gas Works Park or Greenlake. So, if you are looking for a safe, big, and loving place for your baby while you're out of town, please reach out to me so we can see if there is a good fit. Cheers! Hablo español. Говоря Български.

Great! All good and super that he was able to help last minute! Thanks H
Eric took great care of our dog! He was very responsive and communicative. He sent great updates with photos. We will definitely use him again in the future.
Eric was an enthusiastic, competent dog sitter. We had a meet and greet then out Xhiggy happily returned to spend an active day with Eric. Thank you for putting my mind at ease!
Eric was amazing about sending me updates and photos! This was my first time leaving my baby overnight and Eric made the whole experience seamless!
Eric took wonderful care of Griffey while we were away. He kept is updated with lots of pictures, which gave us peace of mind and let us see how much fun Griffey was having. It was clear that Eric genuinely cared about Griffey and made sure he was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I really appreciated the regular communication and attention to detail. I would absolutely book with Eric again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring Rover sitter.
Eric is amazing! He makes sure all dogs will be comfortable with each other before even booking and asks the appropriate questions to get to know each dog. He sends pictures & updates throughout the day. And the best part of all, Rocco can't wait to go to daycare with Eric & comes home a very happy pup 😁

Schedule
I am home all day! If I have an errand, my mother-in-law will watch your doggy until I return. Weather permitting, the doggies and I will generally hang out in the backyard, where they have room to run, to sit in their shaded love seat, and to observe the birds and squirrels.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a 3-story home with a large, fenced backyard. I do not take more than 3 doggies at once and I do not walk more than one doggy at a time (unless they're siblings). If the doggies are in the backyard, then so am I. I feed all doggies separately. If it is extremely hot, I have a couple of portable A/C's to use.
A typical day
I like to play with doggies as much as they want to play. Usually, they tire out before I do. I like to go on frequent walks for the exercise and fresh air. Usually we walk in the Wallingford Playfield, unless there are too many off-leash doggies, then we walk in the neighborhood and maybe to Meridian Park. For doggies who are big walkers, we go to Gas Works Park or Greenlake. I also like to hang out in the backyard with doggies and watch them run and play. We spend most of the day in the backyard.

- Please let me know if your doggy has any behavioral challenges, including whether s/he is a digger or known escaper. Please let me know whether your doggy has displayed any aggressive behavior in particular and, if so, whether it is directed at a certain kind of dog only. In your care instructions, please be as proscriptive as you like on food, medicine, supplements, eating times, etc. It only helps me help them. Thanks!
