Mark is one of the top pet sitters in the Austin area. He has cared for my husky over the past couple years. He provides great service and goes above and beyond to ensure my dog was well fed, and groomed and plenty of exercise and attention. His communication is excellent providing regular updates and photos giving me peace of mind while away. I highly recommend Mark for your pet care needs and services.

Mark was absolutely wonderful. He worked with me on a confusing last-minute booking, took great care of the house and my cat loved him! I would recommend his services to anyone.

I really enjoyed the customer service shown to me by the people at This Little Dog of Mine. They were so nice and kind and flexible. I would highly recommend their services to any pet mom and dad. Thank you so much for treating Roxi, my miniature poodle so well while I was away.

Information Mark C. would like to know about your pet

Ahead of time, it's crucial for me to know as much as possible about your pets to provide the best care possible. Understanding their daily routines, dietary preferences, medical needs, and any behavioral quirks helps me tailor my care to their individual needs. Additionally, knowing their likes, dislikes, and favorite activities allows me to plan fun and engaging experiences that will keep them happy and comfortable while you're away. Clear communication about your pets ensures a smooth and enjoyable experience for both them and me, so feel free to share any important details or special instructions before our time together begins.

A typical day

When it comes to fun activities for the pets I watch, the possibilities are endless! From energizing walks in the park to engaging play sessions with their favorite toys, I tailor each activity to suit the individual preferences and energy levels of the pets. Whether it's a game of fetch, a puzzle toy to stimulate their minds, or simply cuddle time on the couch, I ensure that each pet receives plenty of mental and physical stimulation to keep them happy and entertained. Additionally, I love exploring new trails or dog-friendly areas, providing opportunities for pets to discover new sights and smells. Ultimately, my goal is to create a fun and enriching experience for every pet under my care.
