Offering Tail-Wagging Dog Walking

Hi, I’m Marc! Growing up in Southern California, I’ve always had a deep connection with the outdoors and animals. I have years of experience caring for pets, from energetic puppies to wise senior dogs. I understand that each pet has unique needs and personalities, and I tailor my care to make sure they feel loved and comfortable. What Sets Me Apart: • Experience with All Ages: Whether it’s a playful pup needing extra exercise and training or a senior dog requiring gentle care, I have the skills and patience to cater to their specific needs. • Outdoor Enthusiast: I love surfing, snowboarding, and golfing, and I’m excited to share my passion for the outdoors with your furry friend. Expect plenty of engaging and stimulating walks! • Reliable and Trustworthy: Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I provide consistent, reliable care, ensuring your pet always feels secure and well-loved. • Training Skills: I have experience with basic obedience training, helping to reinforce good behaviors and make walks enjoyable for both your pet and you. • Special Needs Care: From administering medication to providing extra attention and comfort, I am well-versed in caring for pets with special requirements. Why Choose Me? I know how important your pet is to you, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a fun, safe, and enriching experience that leaves tails wagging and owners at ease. Let’s make your dog’s day a great one! See you soon! Marc

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets, whether in my home or my client’s, I prioritize safety, trust, and a nurturing environment. **Safety:** I ensure all spaces are pet-proofed and free from hazards. In my home, I provide secure, comfortable areas for pets to rest and play. During visits to clients’ homes, I carefully follow any specific safety instructions provided, such as securing gates or monitoring interactions with other pets. **Trust:** Building a strong bond with both pets and their owners is essential. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs and routines, providing consistent, loving care that pets can rely on. Clear communication with owners ensures that everyone feels confident and informed. **Environment:** I create a calm, stimulating environment tailored to each pet. This includes regular exercise, mental stimulation through play and training, and plenty of affection. Whether at my home or the client’s, pets enjoy a warm, welcoming atmosphere where they feel secure and happy. By focusing on these core principles, I provide exceptional care that ensures pets are safe, well-cared for, and thriving in their environment.

Marc is excellent. He’s prompt, well prepared and has a great attitude. My active dog had a strong workout and can’t wait for her next walk with him. I highly recommend Marc as a responsible, conscientious and motivated walker.

Schedule

Pet care is a central part of my daily and weekly routine, ensuring that each pet receives the attention and care they deserve. Here’s how I incorporate pet care into my schedule: Daily Routine: • Morning: I start the day with refreshing morning walks or play sessions, ensuring pets get their exercise and potty breaks early. I also take care of feeding and any necessary grooming tasks. • Midday: I provide midday check-ins for pets needing extra attention, including bathroom breaks, playtime, or a quick walk. • Afternoon: Afternoon activities often include longer walks, interactive play, and training sessions tailored to each pet’s needs. • Evening: Evenings are for winding down with relaxed walks, feeding, and ensuring pets are comfortable and ready for a restful night. Weekly Routine: • Weekdays: I maintain a consistent routine with regular walks, feeding, and play sessions. For pets staying with me, I ensure they have a stable environment and plenty of love and attention. • Weekends: Weekends offer more flexibility for longer adventures, like hikes or beach outings, providing extra enrichment and exercise for the pets in my care. By integrating pet care seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, I ensure that every pet enjoys a balanced, happy, and fulfilling experience.

More detail the better. Best to write it out and send ahead of time. That will give time for thoughtful follow up questions. It’s a dogs life and we just live in it
