Dogs best friend!

Pet care experience

I’ve raised/certified two dogs of my own which both are purebred German shepherd. They passed basic K9 training. I’ve trained my own dogs, families and friends dogs for over 6 years. Currently I’m in the process of acquiring my CTA certification. I’ve had great results with all types of dogs. I love building bonds with every dog!

My fiesty Chihuahua did well with Erik. They both seemed comfortable with each other for the first visit.

Erik is flexible, knowledgeable and communicates very well. We were concerned about leaving our slightly anxious dog with a stranger for the day but everything worked out well. He even got to take a walk with another dog. Talking with Erik was easy and we got to know our dog better through the eyes of another person. I’ll definitely reach out to him next time we’re in town.

Information Erik H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there is any specific needs that your dog requires or likes as well as all of the dogs dos and donts.

A typical day

As a dog sitter, my main priority is to ensure that the dogs I am watching are happy, healthy, and well-cared for. One of the best ways to keep dogs happy is by engaging them in fun activities. Depending on the breed and personality of the dogs, I may take them on long walks, runs or hikes in the park or in nature trails to let them exercise, enjoy the fresh air, and explore their surroundings. I also love to play fetch or tug-of-war with them, give them puzzle toys or interactive games to keep their minds stimulated, and engage them in basic training exercises to help them learn new skills and tricks. For dogs who love socializing, I might take them to a dog park or a beach to meet other furry friends and run around off-leash. When the weather is nice, we might even have a picnic or a barbecue in the backyard, where the dogs can relax and enjoy some delicious treats while playing fetch or just lounging in the sun. Finally, I always make sure to give the dogs I am watching plenty of love and attention, with lots of belly rubs, ear scratches, and cuddles. I understand that each dog has its unique needs and preferences, so I always take the time to get to know them and tailor their activities to their individual needs and personalities.
