OUR TEAM
THE WALK. PLAY. LOVE. FAMILY
Together we are excited to be taking care of your furry family members. Cats & dogs have been a part of our lives since we can remember and we wouldn’t be the same without them. Our pets have been our greatest companions with mutual unconditional love & unbreakable bonds. As we found ourselves around so many wonderful animals (and personalities!) every day, we were inspired by an exciting endeavor — WALK. PLAY. LOVE. We couldn’t imagine a better way to “work” and spend our day. We want to ensure you a worry-free time away as it is our treat to help you care for your cats or dogs.
Meet Eric
Co-Founder and Co-Pet-Lover: As a Born and raised Washingtonian, this area is my home. I have always had a strong affinity towards animals, especially dogs. I come from a family of strong dog lovers and have been lucky enough to own dogs my entire life. I feel that our pets ‘make’ our ‘homes’ – they are the clasp that closes the circle. It is one of the most comforting feelings to come home and to be immediately greeted with so much warmth, joy, and love by our pets – no matter how good or bad our day has gone. In 2015 I fell into dog walking and pet sitting by random luck, an open mind, and being in the right place at the right time—and what a gift that was! This has become one of the most rewarding jobs I have ever had and I consider myself very lucky to be able to now build a business that is filled with so much love, happiness, and positive energy. Outside of walking dogs I enjoy an active lifestyle. I enjoy running, playing basketball, and of course taking my puppy Quinn everywhere. Growing up here, I am very familiar with the many beautiful walking trails and parks in the area and enjoy taking her to them frequently. I also love to travel and discover new places, especially learning their history. If I could take my dog everywhere with me, I would! In addition to my years’ experience in dogs and dog walking, I am PetSaver-, Pet CPR-, & Pet First Aid-trained.

MEET NICK
Hello! My name is Nick Stocker and I was born and raised in Silver Spring, MD. I’ve lived here my entire life so I know the area very well. I graduated from Our Lady of Good Counsel in 2015. I have had Golden Retrievers my entire life which has taught me how important it is to not only care for your animals but to get to know each one’s unique personality. I enjoy the outdoors, taking my dog for a hike, and listening to music. I have a lot of experience walking dogs and I look forward to meeting all of your furry friends!
