Pet care experience

I'm very active, and love animals.

I’m a very active person, and an avid animal lover. I was raised with animals from dogs and cats, to snakes and birds. I live in the barracks at the MCAS, and therefore can’t board your animals, but will be more than willing to walk or drop in on them to keep them happy and occupied. I work Monday-Friday 7AM-5PM. My weekends are usually free. I’m very flexible, so I’m willing to work around my schedule to fit your pets needs. Communication is key. I have experience with many animals, and I’m well equipped with the knowledge and the patience for any animal you have. I’m willing to walk little dogs, big dogs, or even your pet lizard if you wanted me to. Big dogs are no issue. Meet and greets are not necessary, but highly preferred.

Safety, trust & environment

I treat all pets like they’re my own and ensure that not only the animal feels safe and well taken care of, but the owner has peace of mind as well.

Obviously the dogs LOVED Marcus. We walked back in the house after getting back in town and the dogs just looked at us like "oh, it's you." He took great care of them, was always on time, and did everything we asked of him, to a "T".

Marcus was great! He sent me all kinds of pictures and videos of my pet. She was very well loved while I was away. I really appreciated the extra care and love he gave her.

Marcus is great! I don’t think our dogs even missed us on a vacation that Marcus was watching. We enjoyed the updates and videos that were sent to us. We never felt we needed to check in with him due to the high level of communication. This was our first experience and will use Marcus many more times to come! TYSM Marcus and talk soon!

Marcus is a wonderful dog/house sitter! He provided numerous pics and videos of our critters while we were gone. His communication was always timely and excellent. Very attentive to our pets. Highly recommend!

I would like to know any bad habits, aggressive tendencies, or any habits out of the ordinary. I would also like to know your pets favorite activities, favorite spots to itch, or even their favorite place to play fetch.
