Erik the Dogfather is AWESOME! He walks my one year old pup who has very high energy. She can be a little apprehensive but Erik’s positive energy put her at ease immediately and she went right with him on her first walk. He is super reliable and I love the app he uses that shows the route of the walk and he always includes great photos of her happy face! His communication is excellent. He always gets back to you right away and follows up when needed. I highly recommend Erik. He is great with dogs and is reliable and trustworthy.

I have 2 med-large dogs and Erik was able to manage them without any issues. One of the dogs has some leash aggression but he was able to help maneuver her on the walks. Overall, Erik is very trustworthy and an excellent caregiver for my pets.

Erik is reliable and consistent, I highly recommend him. He has the skill set to walk my big dog who can sometimes be a challenge due to “surprise lunging’”. I am very happy with his service and would be glad to provide a personal reference for him.

Welcome to the Dogfather Club

If you’re here, you’re probably the kind of dog parent who wants more than the basics — someone who values real attention, real professionalism, and real care. That’s exactly what the Dogfather Club is built on.

Every dog I work with receives personalized care and my full attention. Walks are GPS-tracked, time outside is spent actually walking and engaging, and your updates include professional photos — not rushed snapshots.

For me, this isn’t just a service — it’s making sure your dog feels understood, safe, and happy every single time I’m with them. Your dog is treated with care, focus, and respect every step of the way.
