Pet care experience

Milford Area Dog Care Services

From a very young age, I've helped raise, train and care for dogs. My parents typically had at least two dogs in the house at a time. I would walk and care for our family friends' dogs and throughout the years engage in occasional house sitting and dog walking. I do believe dogs are better than most people.

Safety, trust & environment

At my mom's we have an invisible fence, but also don't let the dogs out back after dusk because of coyotes. In my best friends case, the dog is crate trained. I will put the dog back in the crate after our walk. Every situation varies, and I'm happy to accommodate any safety measures.

Eric did a great job for us! We adopted Beau 4 months ago, this was our first time leaving him for a vacation. Eric communicated regularly and sent photos. We could tell that Beau was happy and felt safe. Eric is kind and trustworthy. Our home was in perfect condition upon our return. Knowing that things were going well at home allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip. We highly recommend Eric!

Champ really loved spending time with Eric and was exhausted from playing when I got home. Eric was also super respectful of my apartment while he stayed with champ.

Eric has been taking care of my dogs for nearly 10 years. All of my dogs over the years love him to death. He walks in the door and is covered in kisses. I highly recommend him as a loving pet caregiver who understands the needs of young and old pets.

I have known Eric for nearly 30 years and he has always been one of the kindest, most reliable people I’ve ever known. Eric has almost always had a dog, or cat, or several of each, in his home and taught me from a young age how to care for my future pets. I have often entrusted Eric to care for my dogs while I am not at home, and he takes care of my home, and my dog. Eric is a wonderful dude.

Currently, I'm not working so as long as there's proper notice, my schedule is very open and flexible. I probably house sit for my mom's dogs at least once or twice month, but can definitely work around that!
