Dog Lover without a Dog!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and cats as pets, and enjoy giving them them lots of TLC. I am very flexible, but specialize in smaller dogs. My wheelhouse is senior care, but I very much enjoy caring for younger dogs.

Found the absolute perfect dog sitter with Mark. My two Toy Aussies consider Mark and his wife their second dog parents. Mark took care of my two Aussies perfectly. He send me updates and pictures every day. I will used them for all our international trips and dog sitting. They are the most perfect, loving, caring, dog sitters.

Mark was excellent with our dogs, he updated us and took pictures for us to see. He was responsive when I reached out as well. My dogs look very happy and relaxed. He also played with them a lot which is a lot of work as one of my dogs doesn’t seem to ever get tired. I would definitely book with Mark again, I would highly recommend him also to anyone else who’s looking for a dog sitter who pays close attention to your dogs and takes great care of them.
