Pet care experience

Your Pet’s Home Away from Home 🐶🐈

I have over 20 years of experience with professional pet care, and it’s always my aim to adore your pet as much as you do! Although I have a major soft spot for dogs of all shapes and sizes I absolutely love cats and love their sometimes quirky personalities. I’ve previously worked at a Vet clinic caring for pets as well as Chewy so I have extensive knowledge when it comes to anything about your pets.

Great overall experience! Erik was very responsive and proactive about sending updates. Ozzie came back very happy and relaxed and looked like she must have had a good time. Highly recommend!

Erik is really responsive. He was really helpful when we needed someone to watch our dog Daisy when we went home over the holidays. Erik and his partner Jen were super prompt in scheduling a meet and greet with Daisy. He was able to provide references get in contact with other client so I could make sure my pet would be safe. Everyone got along great. Lead up and drop off were easy. Erik was responsive throughout sending lots of photos of Daisy so we knew she was doing great. Pick up was easy too. Erik was super sweet. Would recommend.

Erik is one of the best dogsitters that we use in the city - he is always prompt, gives us daily feedback and pictures of our dog, and takes great care of our pet. Our dog always seems very happy after spending time with Erik and his wife and we would trust them fully to watch over our pet! Would highly recommend booking with him and we are a very happy, repeat client.

We recently boarded our dog with Erik, and it was a fantastic experience. Erik was incredibly kind and made everything so easy for us. Our dog was well taken care of, and we could tell he was happy and comfortable from the daily photo and update made. We highly recommend Eric for anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog boarder!

Erik took care of my little Gordo after a couple of years and it was like no time had passed. He took great care of him and was always super responsive and had no problem with Gordo’s multi step food and supplements. Thanks, Erik!!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a great sized loft and pets do not have any restrictions in my home. The more comfortable they are the better. I’m very laid back as well and don’t mind sitting at your residence as well. Whatever makes your pet more comfortable.

A typical day

I live in Fidi near a dog run by the water. I love to play fetch, or just hang out outside in a grassy area for the pups that don't care for playing fetch.
