Pet care experience

Retired firefighter, loves dogs

Friendly house with fenced in courtyard; our dog Finley loves having visitors, sharing his toys, having a playmate and nap buddy. After 30+ years I retired from a local fire department as a firefighter/paramedic; my wife Elizabeth (Betty) is also retired after spending years as a business administrator/RN. We love having our grandchildren and grand dogs visit and know that spending time with our canine visitors is not only fun but important. Our house is in a newer development with quiet, low traffic streets; Finley loves seeing his friends in the neighborhood and meeting new pals. Finley also likes to go for car rides to see new places, maybe some of his new friends can go with him on his travels. We cannot wait to meet new "fur" friends.

Mark is excellent. The 2 dogs really like him and they are very well taken care of while he is with them. Very happy with his care for our two fuzzy children.

An excellent dog sitter for our two dogs. They are well cared for and most importantly they really like Mark. I believe he's the only one who's seen them as of yet, but I'm sure Elizabeth is equally wonderful. I wholeheartedly recommend them.

We are so grateful to Mark and Elizabeth for being such wonderful hosts to Betty! It was her first time being boarded and it really set our minds at ease to see how well they cared for her. We also really appreciated receiving photos/videos and updates every day. Betty has found her “home away from home”!
