Availability
I am currently a Real Estate Agent. My main working days are the weekends for open houses. This provides me with the freedom to care for your pet during the week, which is when most doggies are home-alone, but not anymore if I have a say in the matter.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Building regulations and lack of space have prevented me from such joy. While I cannot pet sit at my home, I can take your dog outdoors. I try and stay physically active, so your dog will be walking and playing.
Information Marco D. would like to know about your pet
You know your dog best. Please let me know how your dog interacts with other humans and dogs. It your dog is overwhelmed by crowds, then I will avoid them. Is your dog hard or hearing, can he/she be let off the leash (in dog parks). Does your dog obey "come here" or "stay" commands? Does your dog get scared of crossing streets and needs to be carried in arms? Do you allow to strangers to pet your dog? and if so, to what extend: belly or head-rubs? Does your dog take any medications? How is the medication administered? I have not injected dogs medicine, but I will be willing to learn if needed. My goal is to ensure your dog's happiness, but his/her safety comes first.
A typical day
My goal is to follow your instructions. Dogs, like us humans, are creatures of habit and once a routine is altered, we stress. If your dog is energetic, then I will provide him/her with walks and runs in the park, or street, depending the neighborhood. Because I use my vehicle to drive potential clients to see houses, I cannot have dogs in it. But if you so choose to, I can responsibly drive your vehicle. But keep in mind, my goal is to walk your dog unless there's a special requirement.

Poops! I did it again.
Pet care experience
Dear parent(s), I thank you for considering me to look after your puppy. In the following short paragraphs you will read a little bit about me and my love for nature. SERVICE: I cater to those parents who need either a "once in a while" (but can be frequent) and/or a "last minute" sitting/walking care. I update my Rover availability based on my regular job's schedule to date to provide you a better service. ME: My love and passion for puppies began at a very young age. Growing up, I was blessed with having at least one dog in the household. During my high school years, I worked at a parrot shop located in Edgewater. There, I cared for baby parrots by handfeeding them their formula, which I prepared myself. I also kept a health chart on many baby parrots. Adults parrots were also present and cared for. My love and respect for animals has only increased through the years. Life has us all working so much that it takes us away from what we would rather do, spend time with our pets. Your dog will be cared for and looked after when you need to attend other matters. I have cared for dogs in the past, small and large (Saint Bernard the largest). I cannot pet sit in my home, but I can come to yours, though most of the time I will be out with him/her. So next time your puppy needs love and care when you need to be elsewhere, book me. I will make sure to fill that void your absence will leave, so the time he/she misses you will be less. Though I love dogs very much, I can be firm when needed. If there are any special requirements, please let me know. A. If your dog is shy, I will make sure he/she is not overwhelmed by other dogs or even humans. B. If he/she is hyper, to avoid kids being frightened. C. Do you prefer that your dog does not visit dog parks, or at least when they are not that busy? etc.
Reviews

We had the pleasure of Marco house sitting for our dog Bailey this past weekend. We came home to a very happy puppy who was treated extremely well. Marco was terrific and so attentive. Even sending us updates and photos/videos that were really appreciated. Would not think twice about having Marco back as we have already scheduled him for future dates and Bailey can hardly wait.

Marco was amazing! He is caring, responsible and always sent us photos to see how our pet was doing .

Marco went above and beyond to care for our senior dog! Our pup is a bit particular and he doesn’t cuddle newcomers often. However Rocket warmed up to Marco and even slept with him! Plus Marco took wonderful care of our home. We’ll book him again in a heartbeat.

Marco is a wonderful sitter. My husband and I have been extremely lucky to find such a reliable and trustworthy sitter for our baby. I’m sort of a helicopter dog mom, and Marco really caters to every request. We have a doxie who has very special care instructions due to his sensitive back so it really gives us peace of mind knowing he is taken care of properly. Our pup absolutely loves him and it has truly been a blessing to find someone we trust in our home and with our pup Frank. I highly highly recommend him. Thank you so much Marco!
