The Dogfather

Pet care experience

My family has had a dog ever since I was a pup myself. In December 2023, I lost my 15 year old border collie who had been with me since she was 4 months. Currently, I have a 12 year old cocker spaniel who's been with us since he was 5 years old. In actuality, they've taught me more than I have taught them. I truly believe I am the father I am to my two daughters partially because of the preparation I received raising dogs prior to having a child of my own. I have a flexible full-time schedule and my wife works full-time from home so your dogs will always receive the appropriate amount of attention and care. I have a large fenced yard for your baby to run around and a dog of my own to help play and keep them company. I can also crate him/her if you wish. Our home has enough space for us to adjust to your care preferences.

Marcus and his family took great care of our two dogs over the holidays! I was really happy with Marcus's communication and service, they helped us board them while we were in town visiting family. We will definitely book Marcus and his family next time we are in town for a visit. Great people and really happy with their care! -Will and Sara

Marcus was great with our dog!! He completely eased my mind while we were out of town. He kept me updated and sent pictures. I will definitely contact him again for future needs. Thanks again Marcus!!

Marcus is incredible with animals. He took care of my dogs beyond my expectations. He went above and beyond to make sure that they were comfortable in my absence and he treated them as if they were his own. I was nervous to leave my dogs for a long time but Marcus made me feel comfortable and confident in his caregiving abilities. He communicated with me regularly, sent pictures, and kept me in the loop. My pups adored him and almost didn't want to leave! I would definitely book with Marcus again!
