Bella's Big Back Yard

I started Rover to make some extra money and so our dog, Bella, could have other dogs to socialize with. Bella passed away in May of 2021 after a long life where she was very loved. It took a few months to start doing Rover again after she passed, but I know that's what she would want me to do. I have loved animals all my life and will treat your dogs in the same loving way I treated Bella. I have reliable transportation if there is an emergency and can give your dogs their medication if they need it. Hope to see you and your fine, furry family members soon! I recently moved to a new home and am in the process of renovating it. Will update the pictures when done.

We are unbelievably attached to our baby (of course) and Mark is the absolute best fit! Beatrice adores him and we couldn’t be happier to find her dog sitting match!

Mark was fantastic! His home is perfect for fur babies. He sent daily pictures and I know she was in good hands.

Can not give 5 stars as Bindi did not receive her heartworm preventative medication on the 15th nor any of her apiquil for itching as we had discussed. This information was also included in Bindi’s care instructions.

Safety, trust & environment

At this time, I only accept dogs to stay in my home. There is a big, fenced in backyard for exercise and the dogs are always supervised outside. Inside, I follow your rules: sleep wherever they are comfortable, on or off furniture, etc.

A typical day

I love to play with the dogs outside and will play catch, tug or whatever other games your pup likes. There are squirrels to chase, but they are fast.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Mark can host up to 4 pets per night
Please let me know if your dog has any special behaviors or quirks I need to adjust for/be aware of. I am pretty insistent about doing Meet and Greets as they help the dogs and owners be more comfortable and give us a chance to discuss needs and answer questions.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
