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!
Reviews
My fiesty Chihuahua did well with Erik. They both seemed comfortable with each other for the first visit.
Thanks for taking him on a walk and bringing him home Clean :)
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.
We love Erik! Highly recommend! He is wonderful to work with and great with our dogs. They love him! We have used him several times and will continue to do so. We trust him completely!

I have a half fenced yards that I usually take my dog to for potty breaks or play catch or just lay and get some sun on the patio. I also have a dedicated room for your fur baby.

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.
