I'm hoping to make canine boarding/training my new job. I still work full time in a hybrid remote role. I will only accept boarding reservations where I know I will be home.

I prefer to exercise dogs by walking them, but will do anything to keep your friends on their own routine. Anything you can share with me about your dogs preferred routine will help me keep their schedule as normal as possible.

Informatie die Mark K. graag over jouw huisdier wilt weten
I would love to know everything about your furry that you would like to tell me. Routine, feeding schedule, medication, nap times, bed times, exercise tolerance, absolutely everything. We know how important it is that your guys and girls stay in their routine as much as is possible. We will do everything we can to make sure your dogs are exercised, fed, and played with as much if not more so than at home.

Professional, Personalized Dog Care
Ervaring met huisdierenverzorging
Finding the right sitter matters — especially when your dog needs more than just a walk and a bowl refill. That’s where I come in. I have over 15 years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From energetic puppies to senior dogs and behaviorally challenging cases, I’ve cared for and handled dogs with a wide range of needs. My background includes extensive volunteer work at animal shelters, where I gained valuable experience reading canine body language, managing stress, and working safely with dogs that require extra patience and structure. In 2021, I earned my Certified Dog Trainer credential through Animal Behavior College, and I continue my education through Leerburg University, focusing on canine behavior, handling, and communication. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach — every dog is different, and I tailor my care to what helps your dog feel safe, calm, and confident. If you’ve been told your dog is “too difficult” or “too much” for most sitters, I encourage you to reach out. I have experience with reactive, anxious, high-drive, and medically complex dogs, including administering medications and injections when needed. My goal is not just to watch your dog, but to advocate for them while you’re away. For safety and individualized care, I only accept one family of dogs at a time. This allows me to focus fully on your dog’s routine, comfort, and well-being — no overcrowding, no chaos. I’d love to schedule a meet & greet so we can make sure it’s a great fit for everyone. You’ll leave knowing your dog is in capable, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring hands. Thanks for stopping by my profile — I look forward to meeting you and your best friend soon.

Mark did a great job! Excellent communication and care. Will definitely be open to having mark look after my dogs again :)

We can already tell from the first visit that Mark and Miles are a great match! Will definitely be booking him again!
Mark did a great job watching Milo at our house. He followed our instructions perfectly. He even handled our anxious dog during a thunderstorm. He even transported Milo to and from his daycare so he wouldn't miss a day during our trip. Mark sent daily reports and pictures and he responded to any questions we had very quickly. Our trip was much more relaxing knowing our Aussie was in excellent hands.
Mark is just excellent! Our furbabies loved him right away.
