I treat your dog like your child.

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of dogs for coworkers for over 8 years. I am trusted person to take care of your dogs and I love all breeds. I’m even great with breeds that love to speak and play a little more rough than others (aka the horrible term aggressive). I have a Rhodesian Ridgeback pit mix that I walk for an hour almost every night so I understand the need for dogs to get exercise, mental stimulation and most importantly love. If you want someone to jog with your dog, I can do that as well or even take them hiking if that’s what they like. My colleagues always say their dogs return exhausted from play time and happy and you’d never know I was at your home. As a gay man myself, I am also LGBTQ friendly and am glad to take care of your actual let’s and paint their nails if you’d like.

Marcus is a great dog owner and dog sitter. His ability to maintain a happy and well behaved dog is a testament to his dedication to long walks and effective training. I've seen him patiently handle even the most excited and playful pups! As a dog owner myself, Marcus is the first person I call to care for my own little guy.

Marcus has watched our dogs for years. Even if they have had medical issues or needed medicine he was always conscientious about providing them the care needed. Despite having dogs that have been skittish on occasion within a short amount of time they warm up to him and become comfortable. I would highly recommend him.

We will go where ever you’d like, if they’re great at parks, we can go there. I walk my dog 2-4 miles a day so I can handle the longer walks.
