Dog loving, trustworthy, experienced dog owner.

Pet care experience

I have had my own dogs since 1989. They have been my best friends and part of my family. I love walking them and taking great care of them.

Mark was very kind and caring. Our dog had a very happy day in the company of his two dogs. He's looking forward to his next visit.

I am delighted with how happy and settled Buster was in Mark’s care. Mark went out of his way to take Buster on fun days out and sent loads of photos and videos of Buster enjoying himself. I came home from my holiday knowing that Buster had as much of a vacation as I had! It’s always really difficult to leave a beloved pet because you worry that animals don’t understand what’s happening. Mark is the kind of person who goes out of his way to provide a home from home. In fact, Buster cried when Mark dropped him back home! I would not hesitate to recommend Mark; Buster will definitely be staying with Mark next time I go away. Thank you so much. A1++++++++++

From the initial meeting, Mark was absolutely fantastic. Whilst away, Mark kept in constant contact to update us with how well things were going and sent us lots of lovely photos and videos. In no doubt that our dog was superbly looked after, cared for and also had a great time. Cannot rate highly enough and cannot thank Mark enough. Will certainly be looking to rebook with Mark for our next holiday.

I work online these days after a 20 year career in primary school teaching in the UK and abroad. This allows me to have much more free time to spend at home with my two current Chinese Crested dogs. I would love to use some of my free time to help others look after and walk their dogs
