Active Lifestyle - Love Dogs

Pet care experience

Hi! I have experience volunteering in the animal health industry and volunteered at a pet emergency clinic for three years in addition to completing a year long animal health course. I enjoy caring for dogs and am a great dog-sitter/walker for any type of dog you have. I live an active lifestyle and would be happy to take your dog on a run or to play fetch (if you have an active dog). Or I can also hang out with your dog and toss on a movie (if you have a less active dog). I have experience caring for varying sizes and breeds of dogs ranging from German Shepherds to Shiba Inus. I would love the opportunity to care for your dog and look forward to meeting you!

Marcus took care of our great dane, Alfred, for a long weekend while my wife and I were away and they had a great time. Marcus was more than able to handle our big boy, taking him on runs and hikes and ensuring Alfred had a great time. He is very punctual and communicative.

Marcus was awesome with my dog Chance! I can tell that he not only enjoyed looking after her but really took great care of her. Chance came home tired and happy. Will definitely be reaching out to Marcus next time I go out of town again.

Marcus was great with our dog. He took him out for long hikes and took lots of pictures. He was very accommodating with pickup and drop off times and we’ll definitely be using him again.

Information Marcus G. would like to know about your pet

I am open and comfortable to caring for different breeds of dogs. I have dog sat, walked, or worked with at the vet clinic with dogs such as German Shepherds, Labs, Huskies, Chihuahuas, Shiba Inus, and more! For whatever type of dog you have and whatever your needs may be I will tailor their experience to the absolute best of my ability.

A typical day

I am an avid hiker and would be able to take your dog on incredible hikes. I have a great arm and can toss a ball far on a field of grass to play fetch. The dog in my cover photo is the most recent dog I fostered for a weekend. I took her on a hike in Marin County and then we played fetch on the beach at Point Reyes.
