Erik is a great dog walker! He was very patient with my pup and she got great exercise. He sent me lots of pictures on the walk and updated me when he was picking her up and dropping her off. I trust him to take her when I'm not home and would recommend his services to other dog owners.

Erik is great, super reliable and trustworthy. He walks my two shepards twice a week and can handle large dogs. Highly recommend!

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.

I was working with Eric the Dogfather to help with our dog Blue, a 2-year-old, 85-pound Yellow Labrador Retriever who can be very reactive to other dogs on walks. I initially hired Eric not just to walk Blue, but to help me learn how to manage his excitement and reactivity during walks. Eric has been incredibly patient—not just with Blue, but with me as well. He guided Blue through focused, structured walks and taught him (and me) how to stay calm and attentive, even when other dogs are nearby. With Eric's help, Blue learned to focus more on the walk and less on distractions. Eric showed me how to handle situations where Blue gets overly excited, pulls, or ignores commands on walks. His advice has made a difference—Blue is now much easier to walk, and I feel more confident knowing how to handle tricky moments. I truly appreciate Eric’s knowledge, calm approach, and support. If you’re looking for help walking your dog—especially if your dog struggles with reactivity—I highly recommend Eric the Dog Father.

Erik is the best! My 10 month old Field Spaniel puppy Bernard loves him. Bernard has a lot of energy and Erik has never failed to tucker him out! Erik is trustworthy, reliable, and has so much love in his heart for dogs. I feel so comfortable with my sweet Bernard in his care. He is a thorough communicator when walking and always shares the cutest pics. Thank you Erik! You rock!
