Highlights
Pet care experience
New to town, not to pets!
I've had family dogs my whole life, and have helped raise cats as well. My special fur baby was named Jack, he was a 90 pound lab mix with lots of energy, allergies, and love. I learned a lot taking care of him, and when he passed I knew I was ready to give that love to others fur babies. I have done short term fostering and babysitting as well as house visits. The pets I've taken care of have had special needs, medication, cones, and have been elderly. Whether it's the biggest dog on the block, the most mischievous cat, or a special baby with health needs I'll make sure they feel the love they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment
I've lived with a large dog for the past 8 years and often have friends cats and dogs come to visit, so my home is already customized to be pet friendly. With no yard there's no possibility for pet to get out, but my apartment has a dog park we can frequent and lots of space to go on walks! I do my best to keep clients updated with photos, videos, and notes about their pets diet, activity, or bathroom habits. I know that when I used to go out of town I was worried sick about my dog and wanted to know he was safe AND happy, so I keep that in mind with how I care for others pets!
Ratings and reviews
Marco was amazing! Maggie had a great time and got along really well with her dog, which made us feel so comfortable. She sent us photos every day and kept us consistently updated, so we always knew how she was doing. We truly appreciated the care and communication, and I would highly recommend Marco to anyone looking for boarding or dog care.
Amazing dig sitter!
Marco was absolutely wonderful! He was very patient, gave us regular updates, and took such great care of Maggie. We felt completely at ease knowing she was in such good hands. Highly recommend!
Kind and sweet to my dog, but also called, texted, called my emergency contact, and got Rover support involved because the puppy defecated indoors and they could not immediately reach me to come and get him early.
Marco was amazing and provided updates about my dogs stay. Would definitely book again!
Marco was an absolute delight to work with! I had to book last minute and he was definitely my saving grace. He sent pictures and updates often to ensure my Max was being well-taken care of. I will definitely use Marco again when I travel.

Schedule
I work in a temporary position right now as well as running an art business. I would love for pet care to take up more of my schedule so that I can begin doing art from home and smoothly transition out of my current role! There's nothing like sketching or painting cuddled up with a pet, and taking breaks to explore the world together!
