Dog or cat person? Yes.

Pet care experience

I've owned a cat and miniature cockapoo most of my life and more recently I helped raise my in-law's golden retriever Louie who's in my profile picture. I sometimes dog sit Louie as well as other friends' dogs whenever their owners leave town. I love both cats and dogs of all sizes and all ages and I take a friendly approach to training!

We had our parents pick our Fig up and she didn’t want to leave! I see that as a good sign that she had a nice stay :)

Thank you Erik for taking great care of my baby boy Rocky. He looked comfy and happy in the pictures you shared from his report card. I appreciate you reaching out to me before his first day and how you updated me with how he was getting adjusted to a new environment! I'm sure he loved the long walk.

Did great with a couple of high strung fussy dogs.

Information Erik P. would like to know about your pet

I am generally a nice, lax dog owner but if your pup needs structure I can be strict with them. I prefer happy, docile dogs that love pets but will dog sit any furry friend in need!

A typical day

I love to play with dogs and go on beach walks, the beach is 5 minutes from my house. I'm very loving with my petting and I love making dogs kick their back leg with pleasure! And for you cat owners I know how to properly pet a cat so they don't run away every time!
