Eric has been a great pet caregiver for his fur babies. He is diligent with socializing them and ensuring they receive medical attention if needed. Seeing how he takes care of his fur babies, I trusted him watch my fur baby when needed and I wouldn't hesitate have him watch them again.

Eric enjoys caring for animals and snuggling with both cats & dogs. He loves the outdoors and taking walks with the dog around the neighbourhood. Eric has a fenced yard which is great to play with the dogs. He has made multiple cat jungle gyms on the walls and the cat loves to climb, hunt and play on them!!

Eric has taken care of my dog for a while on and off and he keeps up with proper feeding time and goes on lots of walks with my dog, he is also a very nice and kind person and loves to help people when they need a break from their pups or want to go out (vacation, dinner etc). He has a very welcoming space safe for all different dogs and has a great backyard so the dogs can go out to play. Also as an added bonus he has some fun spots for cats to chill and hide from the world.

Safety, trust & environment

Raised on a farm, I create a safe, calm home for overnight care. We also happily visit other homes for pet relief, keeping routines steady and stress‑free.

Pets

A typical day

The day starts early. I like to get up with the sun, have a coffee, feed the cat then take the dog out in the yard to chase squirrels. At several points in the day we do a 2K round and round. We don't use the word walk in this house since they know exactly what that means. At some point the laser pointer comes out to pay circle the house. As the day starts to fade we like to be back out in the yard to howl at the moon.
