Highlights
Pet care experience
Your dog's new best friend! 🐶
I have been around animals all of my life, from dogs and cats, to bearded dragons, mice, gerbils, budgies and fish! There's nothing more I love than getting out in the fresh air with the pup and going off to explore. My dog Hollie is a Romanian rescue, who we've had since she was 6 months old (she's now 6). She is full of beans, absolutely adores her older bro's, and likes nothing more than to snuggle up on the sofa after a stroll down the canal path. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes.

Pets
Safety, trust & environment
I have a large enclosed garden at home, but am lucky to be close to lots of open fields (and several secure fields, if required). Whether a walk, or a home visit, your pets safety and wellbeing will always my main priority.
Ratings and reviews
Mark was great with Lincoln. Lincoln is extremely strong and reactive and Mark coped brilliantly. Also he arrived exactly on time which is unusual for other dog walkers we have used. Definitely a double plus. Would highly recommend him.
Mark has always had a love for animals and has had many family pets over the years - cats, dogs, gerbils, mice and fish. He is caring, trustworthy and totally reliable, and he will look after your pet with the same love and care he gives to his own dog, Hollie. I have no hesitation in recommending Mark to Rover.com
My little Frankie (a chubby tabby) absolutely loves Mark! Frankie is usually super timid around new people but he took to Mark really quickly when we first met. He also sent me photos of my (not so little) Frankie when I was on holiday with my mates too. I have a feeling he may love Frankie more than me. Mark is so good with animals - he is so great with his own dog, Hollie, and has a huge garden for dogs to run around too! He also lives in a lovely area, with plenty of places to take the doggos for a runaround! I genuinely couldn't think of anyone more suited to walk dogs or look after cats for a living - he has loads of experience with all pets and is so caring.

I currently work from home (but have flexible hours), so have total flexibility over visits, walks and playtime with your furry pals! At present I have up to 4 hours per day to cater for this, but will have additional availability over the summer months. I'm also available over most of the weekend.
