Planets with moons may indeed have Earth-like eclipses. Eclipses happen when moon orbital plane intersects with planet orbital plane with respect to its star. Eclipses can only happen however if angular diameter of the moon is similar to (or greater than) angular diameter of star as seen from planet's surface, which is quite a rare condition. In the whole Solar System moon-eclipses only happen on Earth.
