Demeanor, any incidents of past aggression (definitely not a deal breaker, just trying to plan the best experience for your pet) and nicknames, favorite scratching spots.

A typical day

I like to use the Alltrails app to find nearby dog-friendly trails and footpaths! That’s the great thing about our city, they are everywhere around us!

Prompt, punctual, safety first

Pet care experience

My family boarded horses during my upbringing and I was responsible for care and feeding daily from an early age. Caring for those that cannot care for themselves was engrained, rain or shine. They need us to have a strong sense of duty and responsibility to provide a quality life and happy, loving home. I’ve raised farm dogs, city dogs and suburb dogs. I have a 16yo American Shorthair cat named Devin. My own dog Shadow is a rescue that loves people but does not do well with other Puppers. In his 8 years with us I have become very good at providing him a quality social life on his terms, recognizing avoiding situations that don’t work for him and being proactive and preventative. Grumpy Pups deserve a great life and sunshine too! I’m transitioning from a career in managing fine dining restaurants in to Real Estate Inspection and will serve your pets and you while completing my course work and certification process. Attention to detail, responsibility and accountability are my guarantee.

Eric was easy to book and easy to work with. He took great care of our dog. We would use him again.

Eric is a true professional with kind heart! We left 2 girl dogs with him and went out of town. He provided us 8 drop in visits that gave us most secure feeling. Eric spent time and looked after our girls with his full attention. We can tell our girls fell in love with him and had a great time with him. We are simply impressed with Eric and also Rover System to keep us updating while we were out of town. With our sincere thank you Ayami Botkin

Eric did a great job. The services he provided are everything you would hope for in a Rover. Will definitely reach out to him in the future.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
