Experienced dog owner/sitter.

Pet care experience

I have owned puppies/dogs my whole life from small breeds to 100+ lbs. I currently have 2 well trained dogs, one being 11 years of age and the other a 1 year old puppy. So I can accommodate far and between. Both have updated shot records.

Mark Handled Scarlett beautifully in the first few minutes and gave her a very effective walk as a leader and a socialization assist!

This was our first time using Rover.com; Mark was great - he helped us understand the process and made a visit before hand; the dogs loved him and we felt comfortable leaving them in his care. Each day we received an update and pictures. The experience was great and we would not hesitate to recommend and use Mark again!

Mark was phenomenal with our girls. We were entirely off grid for over a week and he handled every detail with care and transparency - we could tell with all the pics and videos they were so happy!

Mark was amazing!! Leaving your dog is always stressful, especially when it's a puppy. Mark sent pictures and videos of walks and cuddly naps on the couch! She was pooped when I got home which means she had a great time!! I would highly recommend him!

Information Mark S. would like to know about your pet

I have experience with giving dogs oral medication as well as any other special treatments that maybe needed such as ear and eye drops. Your dog is my main priority.

A typical day

I work from home so I am able to care for your dog throughout the day with no interruptions. Potty breaks and snacks as needed. I have a 5 bedroom home so if your dog prefers privacy that can be accommodated as well. Walks do take place mostly in the morning and evening time as the heat starts to rise. I have many parks and trails near by.
