Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Erik and through growing up with cats and raising a rambunctious 6-year-old Golden Retriever, I'm the perfect active adult to take care of your animal friends. I work from home, giving me plenty of time for ball throws, tug of war, and enough snuggles and head scratches that your pet may never want to leave.

Erik and sara were phenomenal! Bear had a ball staying at their house. They were great to communicate with and were so sweet. I felt so great leaving Bear in their care and will definitely use them again!

Erik was just fabulous! This was my very first experience with Rover so I was a bit nervous leaving my baby with someone I didn’t know. I had a good feeling about Erik and his services especially after reading the reviews and texting with him. Very easy to work with. Gave regular updates/ pics. Added an extra day to my trip with no problem. Will use again.

Erik took great care of Izzy for a last minute trip, He gave us daily photos, sometimes multiple times a day, so we saw that our dog was comfortable and having fun with his dog Sunny. Erik also gave Izzy meds while we were out of town with no problems. I would highly recommend Erik and will use him the next time we go out of town!
