Highlights
Pet care experience
Reliable, Loving & Attentive
I’ve always had a genuine love for animals, and being a dog parent myself has made that bond even stronger. My boy, Skokie, is part of my family, and I understand how important it is to trust someone else with a pet you love so much. I’m patient, attentive, and comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I will treat your pet with the same love, patience, attention, and care that I give Skokie every single day. Fun fact I worked for a vet clinic when I was 10 years old, to pay for my dog surgery on her eyes. After that I did worked for a dog trainer to pay for her sessions. During my teenager days, my dad and sister would rescue stray dogs in Mexico and I was always cooking food for them, washed them, played with them. And loved them!!

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always come first. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care because I would want exactly the same level of care for my boy, Skokie. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medications or special instructions carefully and pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level. I’ll treat your pet, your home, and your instructions with respect—and most importantly, I’ll care for your pet the way I would want someone to care for Skokie: with love, patience, attention, and kindness.

Schedule
schedule is flexible, which allows me to make time for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, companionship, and other pet-care needs throughout the week. I understand from caring for Skokie how important routine and quality time are to a dog. I’ll do my best to maintain your pet’s normal schedule and make sure they receive plenty of attention while you’re away.
- 16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsErick can host up to 5 walks per day
- I’d love to know as much as possible about your pet before caring for them—their normal routine, personality, feeding schedule, favorite treats and toys, medications or special needs, allergies, fears, triggers, and how they behave around other dogs and people. Please also tell me about any little quirks or habits that make them them. The more I know, the easier it is for me to keep their routine familiar and make them feel safe and at home. I know how particular I am about Skokie’s care, so I completely understand pet parents who give me a long list of instructions! 🐾
