My boys are just part of life in the country. We live on 40 acres. I have 1.5 miles of walking trails. We go on regular walks at home for the week we don’t make it to the trails. I am self employed and try to maintain an available schedule.

Information Mark R. would like to know about your pet

If it is your first booking we will schedule a no cost meet and greet to make sure it will be a positive experience for all. Important information I like to know ahead of time is your dogs demeanor and normal activity level. I also want to know how the interact with others. I’m looking forward to meeting your pup.

A typical day

We go on daily walks on my 1.5 mile trail at home and go on hikes in the mountains whenever we can. Relaxing at home is also a a regular occurrence.

Pet care experience

I’ve been around dogs my whole life. I grew up on a family farm in the Midwest, we raised multiple breeds and 4H projects included dog training. I helped establish two dog training programs in two prisons in the Midwest. I served for a few years on the board of a nonprofit no kill shelter in the Midwest. I have two American Shelter Dogs that are well socialized and love going out on the trails. Both behaved well enough I am 100% comfortable off leash as long as trail rules allow.

Mark is a great guy! He comes from the farm country of Iowa and has an intuitive sense of animals. He has taken my dog out for walks on multiple occasions and I trust him completely.

Mark is very knowledgeable about dogs and dog mentality. He will be a great addition to your team! He has a very calming presence with animals and dogs in particular!
