Grad-student, need dogs in my life!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and recently raised and trained a rescue I found as a malnourished, mangy, puppy on the side of the road in Equatorial Guinea. "Runner" and I lived there for two years before I brought her back to the US. She currently lives in Colorado with my partner while I finish up grad-school, so I am dog-less and need more canine in my life! Other things to know: - I'm very active and like to get dogs out playing and exercising - My schedule is flexible - I have experience training an atypical breed (African street dog?) and am consistent and disciplined - I have often taken care of my sister's Bernese Mountain dog, from the time she was a puppy until now

I can personally testify to the fact that Mark is a kind and capable dog-interacting human. If you want a dog sitter that will love your dog for the dog your dog is, hire Mark. Your dog will thank you.

Mark is my first choice for dog sitter! He's taken care of my dog many times, both for daytime walks and for multiple night care. He's responsible and caring, and my dog loves him! He's had dogs himself so he completely understands what's needed to take care of pet. It helps that he loves dogs so he will treat your dog like family!

Mark was our dog sitter for years when he lived in Seattle. He is a friendly, cheerful guy and is great with dogs. He was very reliable and a great communicator while we were gone, sending us pictures and updates on our dog Snoop. Mark was also always available to dog sit /walk in a pinch when I would leave town on a last minute business trip which we appreciated. We're bummed to have lost him to the East Coast but highly recommend him as a dog sitter!
