Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free for them. Through my experience caring for pets and volunteering at a local animal shelter, I’ve worked with animals of many different temperaments and understand the importance of patience, awareness, and safe handling. I always make sure pets are secure on walks, monitored during playtime, and given plenty of attention and care. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have for feeding, medications, routines, or training. I believe communication is very important, so I’m glad to send updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

A typical day
A typical day with me is centered around making sure your pet feels comfortable, active, and well cared for. I like to follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel relaxed while you’re away. Depending on your pet’s needs, the day may include walks, playtime, enrichment activities, feeding, and plenty of attention. I also make sure pets have time to rest and feel comfortable in their environment. For more active dogs, I enjoy longer walks and play sessions to help them burn off energy. For calmer or senior pets, I focus more on gentle interaction, companionship, and keeping them comfortable. I always keep a close eye on behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I’m happy to send updates and photos so you know how your pet is doing throughout the day.

Pet care experience
’ve had hands-on experience caring for animals for many years. Since around age 12, I’ve regularly helped care for pets belonging to friends, family, and neighbors. During that time I’ve provided feeding, walking, bathing, pet sitting, playtime, and general daily care. I also have experience helping with basic training and working with dogs who were preparing for adoption, which helped me learn how to work with different personalities, energy levels, and comfort needs. Most recently, I’ve been volunteering at a local animal shelter for over 4 months. In this role, I assist with a variety of responsibilities including walking dogs, bathing, playtime and enrichment, administering medications when needed, transporting animals, and helping with overall animal care at the shelter. Working with animals in both home and shelter environments has given me experience with pets of different temperaments, and I always focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always do my best to provide reliable, attentive care. If you’re looking for someone dependable who genuinely cares about animals, I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pet!

His love for animals truly shows through and he is extremely patient with them and kept me updated about their care. On a five star rating I would give him a six!
Marcus took great care of my son's cat when it needed a home. He knew how to play with the cat and make it feel at home. He also helped care for my dog. He knows how to handle animals and takes care of their needs. It gave me a peace of mind knowing our beloved pets were in his care!
