Dogs LOVE it here!

Pet care experience

I've spent my whole life around dogs. When I was young my dogs worked for me, now I do the work for the dogs! Let us pamper your loved ones. Dog sitting started out as my son's job, but I've come to enjoy it a great deal. They relax me, so I want to pass that along to others. If you know that your dogs are having a GREAT time, then you can have a great time. You can then relax and have one less worry while you're away. We are close to the Galleria. Our neighborhood is excellent, lots of trees, grass, squirrels, birds. There is a fully fenced manicured lot right behind us. It's like our own personal dog park! Minus all the excess waste that some owners don't pick up. We like to give your pet the freedom to do leashed walks and off-leash roaming. If we aren't at our "personal park" then we are usually at another dog park on the weekends. We've always got dogs around, so they just usually have a ball together. It gives them great exercise and socialization. So come let them play, you won't regret it. We'll become your go-to sitter!

Mark is such a sweet and caring individual, I love how much he truly cares about other people’s fur babies. He said it is a de-stressor/anti-anxiety relief for him which I couldn’t think of a better way to relax either than surrounded by sweet loving pooches all day. Not only does he care about the animals but the “parents” too. I expressed to him how nerve racking it was for me to leave my pets and he completely understood sending daily updates on how they were along with pictures and videos, not to mention within a matter of 20 minutes after leaving from the drop off he sent the first update knowing it was hard for me to say goodbye. My tiny rambunctious dog who likes to think he’s bigger than he is got a scrape on his ear and as soon as it happened Mark messaged me with an update. Explaining the situation, his assessment, and recommendation along with the option of taking my pup to the vet at no expense to me. He really is wonderful so if you want to put your mind at ease while on vacation then Mark is your guy. Thank you so much again for taking care of my babies for me they are both doing great! :)

Mark has been a God sent! My senior pup has separation anxiety, heart conditions and arthiritis and Mark has been able to handle it all. Incredibly patient and caring dog sitter. I have used him for overnights as well as drop offs. I recommend him 100%!

Information Mark G. would like to know about your pet

In our home, we only accept dogs that have been spay/ neutered, up to date on all vaccines and current on flea/ tick control. We generally prefer to do a meet and greet so both you and your pooch can get a feel for our home.

A typical day

We live right next to Briargrove. The neighborhood is picturesque! It allows us to have varying walking routes and lengths. All the dogs love it! We love the Goforth Dog Park in Cypress. It's a bit of a drive, but SO worth it. We do a lot of dog parks, Hermann, Memorial, Tanglewood, Bear Creek, Pin Oak, Discovery Green.
