OVER 300+ SERVICES PROVIDED🐶

Pet care experience

Hi I'm Marc! I live alone in Hillcrest and work from home full-time. I'm well experienced with dog sitting and dog walking for about 8 years now. I have provided over 300 plus services in our neighborhood! I am flexible, consistent, reliable, experienced, patient and has a genuine love for animals. I am available during work week, flexible when pet owners plan to go on vacations or family emergencies. I have an absolute passion in carring for your love ones with great connections and friendship that will last a lifetime. Dogs Keep Us Happy and Healthy. The relationship you have with your dog is good for your heart and your soul. Positive feelings, increased activity, affection and security are the building blocks of a happy and healthy life. Coming home to a dog helps reduce stress and walking a dog can help keep you healthy.

Marc has watched Jake twice now and has been so great with him! I know my fur baby is in good hands with Marc. He’s also ultra responsive, great communication while I was away and planning for pick-up/drop-off coordinating. Highly recommend!

Marc was very responsive, sent pics and quick updates regularly, and seemed very attentive - would gladly have my pup stay with him again.

Had a great experience. Kept open communication the whole time, and sent a few pictures throughout the day. Will definitely be booking him again when we need someone.

Marc took such good care of our little guy. It was our first time with Marc, so we did a meet and greet before Bently’s stay. His home was clean and appropriate. He answered all of my questions, and sent daily photos and updates on how Bently was doing. I would definitely book Marc again.

Safety, trust & environment

I work from home so his/her safety would definitely be my priority. In public, Dogs are always on a leash at all times. Dog parks are off limits for their safety. Water, poop bags, treats are always comes in handy. During hot summer days, I avoid HOT road surfaces, instead walking on grass to protect their paws from burning. I'm watchful that they dont eat and lick anything on the ground. While walking, I avoid coming in contact with big dogs, skunks, cats ect... My place is safe and secure. We have a dog friendly fenced balcony where they can play and sunbathe. No other dogs will be around not unless mentioned.

Information Marc B. would like to know about your pet

Small and medium dogs that are okay with other dogs. I live in an apartment, preferably dogs who does not have separation anxiety. If you have a senior dog, we have an elevator for easy access to my apartment. I really appreciate for long haired dogs to be clean and smelling good upon arriving. I provide dog bathing services, if interested just let me know.. Thank you so much.
