Underdog, here to make a difference

Hello my name is Mark, making sure your pup is comfortable is extremely important to me. I assure you that they will receive the attention and room to explore that they need to enjoy their time with me. During my visit, you can expect your dog to: - Go on regular walks - Receive much needed attention - Enjoy other optional (with permission) activities like runs, hikes, and visits to lake - Get plenty of belly rubs! If you are interested in allowing me to care for your pup, I generally try to set up a meet and greet before the time of the stay. This allows me to observe how your dog will be with me, get us familiarized, and for you to tell me more about them. So let me know a good day and time you would like to arrange that! Here are other things I need to know about your dog: - Is he/she potty trained? - Anxieties or behavior issues - Medical issues or previous injuries - What your dog loves to do - Feeding schedules and amounts When I’m not walking your fur babies I am enjoying a fulfilling lifestyle with our 3 dogs, 4 cats and many chickens. It’s not work hanging out with dogs and cats all day just appreciating the beautiful outdoors together. I’ve found this to be true, “If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life”. Just the wind blowing through the trees, peace and quiet and the occasional zoomiez parade of catch the leader from the dogs. My love and I had to give up quite a few things to be able to have the animals we now have. They are part of our family unit and each serve an integrated purpose in our lives and on our off grid adventure. I would like to open up my heart to you and your pups to put in the time and effort to show you that I have made room in my heart for you and your animals.

As they are checking off milestones I’m more available to spend more time with your fur babies. Currently I work Mondays and Tuesdays performing as a security professional.

It would be very helpful if you could let me know if there’s any recent medical concerns that would need to be tended to while I’m responsible for the well-being of your fur babies. Any special requests or quirks that might be helpful as well. Does your dog like other dogs are they food aggressive or anything that would help me keep them happy and safe. Thank you 🙏🏾
