House Sitting • Sep 28, 2026

Mark watched our 8 month old cockapoo Ginger. It was the first time we were without her and I was very nervous about it, but Mark went way above and beyond what we expected. He was so genuinely kind to her when we had our meet and greet and even more so the whole time we were gone. He took her daily to the dog park and multiple walks. She slept very well (on his bed!!), which she loves to do at home. He kept us up to date with pics and videos. We never worried once. We want to thank Mark for his professionalism. Normally our kids would watch our pets so this was the first time we hired a pet sitter and he was great.

Mark is an amazing pet sitter! It was clear that my pups adored him and felt so comfortable and well taken care of. Mark confirmed the week before, showed up on time, sent consistent updates and photos so that we knew how they were doing without us and left our home spotless. The toughest part of traveling is leaving our pups behind. To have someone who genuinely cared and enjoyed spending time with them made our travels so much easier. We will definitely use Mark again!!

Mark was just fantastic. Lily loved him and they bonded quickly. You can tell just from talking to Mark how much experience he has caring for dogs. He sent pictures every day and Lily always looked very happy. I would definitely recommend him.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 09, 2026

We highly recommend Mark and his services to care for your pet while you’re away. We knew right away after meeting Mark that he truly cares and is passionate about providing a warm, friendly and welcoming environment for our dog, Nellie. Knowing Nellie was in such capable hands is priceless for us and we appreciated not having to worry about her. She had several walks and playtime and we came home to a happy contented tired girl. We feel so fortunate to have found Mark and know he will be our go to when we need to leave Nellie. Thanks again Mark - you’re the best!

Mark was fantastic! One of the best pup care givers I have ever worked with. He was attentive. Had great communication. And followed Winston’s routine to a T. A++, would hire again. I highly recommend him.

Mark came to do a meet and greet with our two 2.5 year old 80lb Bernedoodle pups to make sure we had a good fit. The dogs and I liked him instantly. He just has a very calm, friendly, and upbeat personality. He dog and house sat for us over the weekend. Most relaxing vacation I have had in a long time. We got frequent updates with adorable pictures, some even filtered and captioned lol. You can tell he understands and was able to capture in the photos each of their distinct personalities. He also worked on a little bit of a jumping up problem that one of our girls is struggling to stop. He took care of the house and even watered my garden. We had special instructions for some meals and a med to give and all was done as we requested. When we got home the dogs were happy and relaxed and didn't have the excess anxiety they would normally have if they spent a long day alone. I am so lucky to have found a dog/ house sitter that I have 100% confidence in to take care of our girls and home.
