I'll love your animals like my own!

Pet care experience

Hi there, I'm Mark! I am a professional, experienced pet sitter that has an EXTREME love for animals. When you choose me to care for your pet, I’ll treat them with the love and care that I would give my own. You can depend on me to create a warm, friendly and safe environment for your pup. I grew up around animals and have experience training and caring for cats and dogs of all ages and situations. Growing up I was always the first person my friends and neighbors would call to watch their pets and their home when they were out of town. I have worked at professional dog training facilities and pet stores, and have volunteered with local shelters and animal rescue facilities. I love the companionship and warmth that only dogs can provide. I have had many pets growing up, mainly cats and dogs. While most of my experience involves caring for dogs and cats, I have also worked with birds! My background working in a variety of settings has taught me how to work with animals across a wide range of breeds, ages, personalities and needs. I find so much joy in caring for animals that I am hoping to make it a full time career. I will treat your animals and living space with the same love and gentleness that I would provide to my own! I am reliable, trustworthy, outgoing, friendly, and responsible. I am a hard worker and will go above and beyond to provide 5 star service. Your pets are family, and I will treat them with love. Animals need love and affection every day, and I am here to help you fill in the gaps! I am available all hours of the day, any day of the week. Whether you are at work, on vacation, or just strapped for time, I am the perfect helper for you.

Copper LOVES Mark, and so do we! Mark was happy to come meet copper (the rambunctious hound we love so much) and Copper loves him from the start. He was a happy dog after his walk, and Mark was very communicative throughout the day. Will be using Mark moving forward!

Mark was a godsend. Will definitely use him again! Always in great communication and very professional. Mark was able to meet with our pups not only once, but twice to get them comfortable with him.

Information Mark S. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences, I love dogs and cats of all different breeds, age and size. If your dog is typically hostile towards strangers, I would like for the chance to meet up once or twice beforehand to give your dog a chance to grow comfortable with me and recognize that I am a friend that their owner approves of.

A typical day

I love hiking with pets and exploring the great outdoors. I grew up in the PNW, so being out in nature is a part of who I am. I love to teach animals new tricks in my spare time and do all kinds of activities that will exercise them both physically and mentally. I’ll make sure your pup is loved and well cared for. In addition to daily feeding, potty breaks, and light grooming, we'll go on regular walks and play all of their favorite games! Fetch, tug of war, tricks for treats, you name it!
