Availability

I work mornings from home and every afternoon walk along the seafront where I live, so why not walk with a dog? I'm also very close to Southsea Common and enjoy walking there as well. I can either pick up your dog or it can be dropped off depending on the time.

Information Mark C. would like to know about your pet

I really don't mind what type of dog I look after. I especially love all types of gun dog as I've grown up with them and had them as an adult but smaller or larger dogs would suit me fine. The only dog I wouldn't be 100% with looking after is an aggressive dog.

A typical day

I love to get out and about so if your dog loves that too, then we'll get on just fine. I normally walk every afternoon either along the beach or perhaps to the countryside - I have no preference.

Pet care experience

I've had dogs in my life from our Pointer when I was a child to more recently my Labrador who is no longer with us. My partner has a Shih Tzu and we share looking after her as we live in separate houses.

Mark looked after my dog really well, gave her lots of attention and a nice long walk. She was very happy on pick up day

Its the 1st time my 2 dogs have stayed with Mark. They settled in really well. Mark sent photos during their stay which is always reassuring. He would look after Shelley and Charlie again. I will have no problem in booking with Mark again.

Mark was absolutely brilliant. Freddie came home relaxed and very happy. Would definately ask him to look after Freddie again.
