I am able to take care of your pets in your home on your schedule, either daily or overnight. I'm more than happy to take dogs on walks, provide social stimulation, interaction with other dogs in your neighborhood (or my dog, Jupiter) at a dog park, if you would like, etc. For cats, I know that feeding schedules and food preparation/feeding is important, as well social interaction and playful stimulation as well.

I have a cat and a dog in my home, so I would need to have a few trial runs with other pets in my home before opening this service, so if you are looking for that, please know that it will be new to me and I don't want to provide a bad situation for your pets or mine. For now, I would love to take care of your pets daily or overnight(s) in your home, walk dogs, set up interactive play dates, etc.

Information Erik C. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know your pet's routines, a little history of your pet (especially for rescues) and knowing what makes them happiest! I also like to know what level your pet is housetrained, if you are working learning something new, whether it's a boundary (such as staying off the couch) or a new trick that I can keep working on while you're away!

A typical day

I love to talk with pets and interact with them as though they are my own. I find out what makes them click and find the joy in each other. I love going on walks to the lake, playing fetch with toys, cuddling on the couch, visiting a dog park (safely) and making new friends.

Pet care experience

I have owned a dog for most of my life - usually just one at a time. I grew up with the sweetest Dalmatian, named Sanjuik, our family dog who we had since before I can remember. A little Chiweenie named Malik who passed in 2024, was my companion throughout my 20s. I'm now in my 30s with a red heeler mix named Jupiter. All of my dogs are in my photos, including my Dalmatian and myself as a child. I am the guy that all pets gravitate towards at any home I enter, every dog park I am greeted just as much as the other dogs there. I just understand dogs somehow, and most people are quick to point it out! I have cared for family, friend's and neighbor's pets my whole life since I was child. There has very rarely been a pet that doesn't immediately love me and I always love them right back! I'm always acutely aware of an animal's unique personality, mood, emotions, needs & desires and match my energy to what they need from me.
