Lifelong pet owner; animal lover!

Pet care experience

Hi there! I'm Nathan Erickson and my partner is Charlotte Richards. Nathan has a lifetime of experience caring for cats, dogs, and many other animals (former farm kid). Charlotte has cared for her 2 cats for 5 year, on multiple continents! We love animals and promise to treat your pet with the same love and compassion we treat our own. With 2 caring Rovers, your pet will never long for attention while you're away! Nathan works remotely and Charlotte can work remotely up to 3 days per week. We both have fairly standard 9-5 positions, and can tag team daily walks, house sitting and/or outdoor time sessions. We're fairly flexible and can usually work with your schedule and your pets needs without issue! We both care for our current pets (2 cats: Ari and Ginger) like our children. Nathan grew up with dogs (Australian shepherds, Corgies, and Bull Mastiffs) and cats, as well as horses and cattle. We know animals require routine and promise to respect your wishes regarding their care.

Incredible guardians for Tofu while we were on holiday. We came back from our trip tired and better yet, our pup was tired and on his own holiday with new friends. Charlotte and Nathan communicated with us every day and followed exercise and feeding directions so well. Couldn’t recommend them more.

Nathan and Charlotte did a fantastic job taking care of our pets. They were communicative while we were gone and I appreciated the updates!

Nathan and Charlotte were WONDERFUL with our animals. This was our first time using Rover amd using people we didn't know to take care of our pets while we were out of town. I was so nervous but both Nathan and Charlotte made me feel at ease. Our dog and two cats were well taken care of while we were gone and I would definitely recommend/use them again!

I have trusted Nathan with my dog on several occasions. He is reliable and trustworthy, and has many years of experience with animal handling! I have no reservations recommending him to take care of your furry loved ones!

Safety, trust & environment

We obviously follow all rules laid out by the pet owner when caring for your animal. We'd provide frequent walks or outdoor time, feed at appropriate times, check water multiple times per day, and provide lots of pets and scratches.

Information Nathan & Charlotte E. would like to know about your pet

We like to know your dog's preferences on food times, walks or outdoor enjoyment, preferred social activities (if any), what worries or makes them anxious, if there are any situations to avoid or be cautious of. We also want to know how your dog likes to play and how best we can help them feel like its just a bit of time until mom and/or dad come home!

A typical day

We like a diverse experience. Parks with trails in grassy areas, walks along ponds/lakes, and well groomed wooded areas are all favorites. We can accommodate your dog's desire to doddle, or if more energized, to go for a quick jog. We can play a myriad of games with your pet, as we do with ours.
