“From the first time Amanda came over for a meet and greet with Tofu, she has always been sweet and gentle with him. At the end of their first meeting, Tofu felt so comfortable with her that he leaned over to give her kisses and asked for belly rubs. Amanda was quick to respond to any inquiries and flexible in her schedule. Having her walk Tofu on the days I have to go in to the office is such a relief!”

“Chris was great with our bigger pups. They were very comfortable with him as a new walker. He was able to easily handle them together, even when our younger dog got excited to see another dog walking by. I would recommend Chris to my friends who need a walker.”

About: Hey there! My name is Erik and I grew up rescuing and raising Rottweilers, and caring for my neighbors dogs, cats, and horses. I am a proud dad of three dogs and two cats, all female except for my big ol silly male Maine Coon cat. I have a seasoned eye and heart for animals body language and non-verbal cues, and with two of my babygirl pups hitting senior age, I am no stranger to catered attention and medications. Whether your fur babies need some extra love, walks, or an overnight eye on them, I look forward to providing everything they deserve! I work full time as a Realtor, which provides me lots of freedom to make my own schedule and personalize my calendar daily to what is needed of me. I walk my dogs every morning or evening down on the Esplanade. My own fur babies are trained to use the doggy door out to the dog run I built for them, to keep them safe from coyotes and raccoons. They are fed twice daily, with fresh water throughout the day, and lots of sneaky snacks in between courtesy of grandma. My cats are also fed twice a day, with both litter boxes cleaned daily as well. My four legged kids know no boundaries in our house, as they are showered with love and sleep with us; however, I am happy to adhere to whichever rules apply in your household and work best for your fur baby!
