Pet care experience

I’ve had a dog in my family since the day I was born. The dog you see in my profile picture is Coal. He is me and my wife’s adventure buddy. He does absolutely everything with us. When we lived in Miami, I would dog sit my friends two dogs anytime they traveled home to Connecticut. My wife has done a ton of dog sitting throughout her years growing up and was a zoo keeper for 3 years. We both love animals. This Christmas, our dog sitter cancelled 1 week before we left to fly home. We got to talking and decided we could help other people looking to travel home by becoming a reliable pet sitter. I work from home so taking potty breaks or going for walks is easy and convenient. Our dog Coal likes other dogs; he doesn’t play, but enjoys sunbathing on the balcony and taking long naps during the day. We would be happy to have doggy day care while you’re at work or overnight when you’re away. Your dog must like other dogs as we have Coal

Mark was very good with my dog. He also took lots of pictures and send them to me. He also went over and beyond to make sure my dog whisperer at home at 9:30 at night. I appreciate him and his wife he took very good care of my Bruno. Thank you again Mark for everything.

Winston enjoyed staying with Mark and Coal over a long weekend. Mark shared lots of pictures throughout the stay. Would absolutely plan to have Winston stay with Mark again.

My dog "Dixie" had a lot of fun while staying at his home. This was my first time using this application and was a little hesitant but all our worries stopped once we got to meet Mark. This is exactly what we were looking for, we wanted Dixie to feel "at home", instead of jailed. Mark sent me daily pictures and messages and we could tell how happy Dixie was at her staycation. I recommend Mark and will use him in the future.
