Pawsitive, professional pet care!
Pet care experience
I'm Mars, and I'd love to work with you and your pet(s)! I service the Humboldt Park/Logan Square area. I have a lifetime of animal experience, 7+ years of this is formal experience with professional dog walking, pet sitting, and dog bathing, as well as beginner obedience training. I've previously volunteered in shelters and been employed by pet care companies, and currently work full time in an animal shelter. I'm comfortable administering medication, walking fearful and reactive dogs, puppies, big dogs, and seniors, and caring for small animals and cats. I am always happy to offer my clients recommendations and solutions for general care, as well as open to discussing other accommodations and special needs.
Reviews
Mars was great! Always very punctual and helpful.
Longest stay away from my pup in the books, and Mars made it stress-free! Communicative and responded to adding another medicine to his regimen. Tank was stoked to see me but then grew sad, I believe because he misses his bestie dogsitter.
Marcus was awesome! So great with my weary dog. I would use Marcus again anytime!
Mars took great care of my cat and dog, thoughtfully following all the instructions I’d left for petcare and giving them plenty of time and attention while I was away. Mars is responsive and also helped me navigate the Rover process, making the whole experience effortless. Will definitely request as a sitter again!
