Any dog, any shape or size!
Pet care experience
I have experience handling dogs of all shapes and sizes, with mild to severe behavioural issues, medical needs, disabilities and more! I am comfortable handling dogs with a bite history, resource guarding, separation anxiety, hyperactivity and any other challenges that make them unique. I started caring for dogs with behavioural needs when my fiancé and I rescued our own dog with a complicated past that presented many challenging behaviours. While we learned how to handle our dog, we knew very few people would be willing to take on the challenge if we ever wanted to go away. After a three-year break from vacationing, we successfully found a sitter to fit all of our dog’s needs and after that I knew I had to help people in the same situation. My goal is to allow my clients to feel comfortable leaving their fur kids at home with someone who cares about them just as much as they do and without worrying if their behavioural issues will be a deal-breaker. Trust me, there isn’t much I haven’t seen!
About Mark P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I currently do not offer any boarding services, as my own rescue dogs are not very welcoming to house guests. However, I am more than happy to drop-in to homes or spend the night if that would make your fur kids more comfortable.
Information Mark P. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any medical needs/ behavioural issues ahead of time, as this is key to a successful visit! Please be open with any and all issues so I can handle each dog accordingly. Please also indicate any medications, special diets/allergies etc.
A typical day
I love to play mind stimulating games with dogs. These include snuffle mats, dog puzzles, hide and seek, and a variety of other games that make them think.
Services

Availability
I leave for work early, and get home early. I only work Monday to Thursday. Most days I’ll be home by 2:30-3:00pm. Weekends are pretty open and I am very flexible to accommodate busy schedules!
