Safety, trust & environment
I will follow your instructions on how to care for your animals as close to the letter as possible! Your animals will be treated with respect and care, alongside whatever supervision and protection I am able to provide. I will check in whenever I have questions or notice odd behaviors, and make sure to respond to you in a timely manner whenever you may wish to check in!
Information Marcus D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know anything relevant about your pets beforehand so I'm able to provide ample and focused care as best and as accurately as I'm able to. Their safety and well being is very important to me.
A typical day
My first thing would be checking in on the pets, seeing how they're acting and providing food for them, if meal instructions dictate. I'd keep a close eye on them and play for a while every so often as the day progresses or even go for a walk...I like reading a book or partaking in some similar activity that'd leave me open to split my focus.

Pet care experience
I've taken care of my mother's dog for several years with her, a little Jack Russell mix named Manda, several other dogs for family and friends alike, and have taken care of cats for an even longer period of time. I just like being in their company and listening to their needs. I want to be a friend and a supporting hand if you have to leave the house and aren't able to take them with you or care for them. I know that struggle intimately, as I've lost my own pet due to moving circumstances, disallowing me from seeing and caring for him. I don't want others to go through that.

Reviews

Marcus was great. Our dog can be a bit of a mixed bag but he seemed to have a great time with Marcus and I think he was sad to see him go. Would highly recommend.





Marcus is amazing! Once again, he went above and beyond expectations. He's extremely concientious.





Marcus did a great job in a less than ideal situation. We (me and 5 cats) had just moved to the area one week before I had to leave for a week. Just uprooted from the only home they'd ever known, no routine, boxes everywhere, confined to one room and a stranger coming in to feed them! Marcus did great. Stayed in touch and kept me informed the whole time. Had great suggestions when we had one little hiccup, and kept everybody safe, loved (as much as they'd let him) and fed. They'll be all over him next time!

Marcus made it happen on short notice and was very communicative!
