Erik was FANTASTIC!! He had a calmness about him that made my pups settle down very quickly and made me feel comfortable. He let them out several times a day and took them on walks. He also provided regular updates and pictures. In addition, he was patient with my blind, senior, foster dog. I will definitely be requesting Erik the next time I need a dog sitter.

Erik did a great job caring for my dog. He was good at asking questions and communicating about my baby. He went above and beyond by shoveling snow and taking the garbage out.
