Pet care experience

I have owned my rescue dog Rita for five years, and grew up caring for cat and in dogs in my household. Rita is a high-energy dog who requires lots of exercise and has developed some special needs as she has gotten older. I will give any pet the care and attention that I give to Rita!

Mark was great! Communicative and very good with my dog who is typically shy around strangers!

Mark was great! Although our kitties were standoffish with him he worked diligently to gain their trust. By day 3 our older 2 kitties were more friendly! Mark visited as we asked and did what we wanted for our kitties. We loved getting daily updates and pictures! We knew our kitties were in good hands and felt very comfortable with Mark!

Mark was quick to get back to me after the initial inquiry. We set up a time to meet the day before the first visit to go over everything and he gave updates throughout the booking.
