Pet care experience

Trusted pup pal for wagging tails

As a lifelong dog owner with a genuine passion for canine companions, I offer personalized care that goes beyond the basics. I create custom routines based on your dog's unique needs—whether they require special diets, specific exercise, or simply extra cuddle time. My fenced yard provides a safe space for supervised play, and I send daily photo updates so you can see your happy pup enjoying their stay. I limit myself to caring for only one family's dogs at a time to ensure focused attention. With years of experience handling dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, I understand that each pet has distinct personality traits. When your dog stays with me, they're not just a client—they're part of my family.

Mardell kept is touch often and sent many pictures while my three dogs were with him for 9 days. I would 100% rebook with him again. Super friendly and my dogs loved staying with him, he made them very comfortable.

A typical day

I love to stimulate the dogs physically and I know animals go off our energy, so I am as loving as can be with all animals. They truly make me happy. I am also opening up an emotional care program for the department of corrections of reentry and rehabilitation.

I had dogs that were older and couldn’t walk. I’ve built little wheelchairs so they can get around. As my dogs back legs were not mobile.
