Information Eric S. would like to know about your pet

Size mainly. When I have a small dog, I like to button up the gates to the backyard so there’s no unauthorized roaming. I have either boards or landscaping fencing that I put up over my regular gates to seal the cracks.

A typical day

My ADHD makes me perfect for this job. I’m always taking breaks, giving snacks, going outside to run around the backyard for three minutes, that kind of thing. There’s a park with a long walking trail right by my house that I try to hit at least once a day. I also love driving over to the Glendora dog park if that’s your thing. The mountains are nearby to, and I love taking a pooch on a hike.

Responsibility & snuggles

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs, had family with dogs, and have foster dogs & cats with Pasadena Humane Society for years. I’d love to help you out with your little fur baby, but I’m really in it for the snuggles.

Caylo had so much fun on his vacation. Eric sent us lots of updates/pictures and was very attentive. Definitely recommend and will absolutely have Caylo stay with Eric again next time we travel! Thanks again!

Eric was so awesome! I was stressing when I wasn’t able to find someone to watch my fur babies. They either couldn’t or didn’t respond to my message. It was my first time letting someone else watch my dogs other than my mom. I was bit nervous and especially cause I know my dogs could be a bit much. I was also nervous about my girl dog because she’s pretty skittish with new people. Eric kept me updated and reassured me they were safe. Thank you again Eric!

Eric was a great sitter! Super easy to communicate with and always quick to respond to my messages. He also proactively sent us updates with pictures throughout the day. My dog looks like he had a great time. We would definitely book with Eric again!
