I'd love to meet your pets!

Pet care experience

My name is Mark, and I grew up out here in Loxahatchee with dogs and cats of my own, as well as looking after neighbor's pets while they were away. I went on to work for a dog kennel here in Florida, went to college and got a degree in Zoo Animal Technology, then moved to Washington state, where I worked as a zookeeper and dog handler for several years. I have extensive experience with pets of all shapes and sizes, as well as with training using operant conditioning, preparing specialized diets, and administering medication. My goal is always to get the animals to have as much fun as I do when I get to see them, and finding out their personalities and how they have fun is always a blast!

Mark will be your pup’s best bud. I worked with him at an off leash dog daycare and the dogs were always flocking to him for belly scratches. Mark has a ton of knowledge about animal behavior (he is a zookeeper!!!) and knows dog behavior especially well. If you would like your dog to be in great hands, I definitely recommend!!!

I am a young and active guy, so if your pet likes long hikes or rough wrestling, I'm more than happy to oblige! I have a dog of my own - a 15 month old husky male - whom I can bring along if your pet likes to wrestle and play! If not, it's no problem, as he can stay at home while I provide one-on-one care for your pet.
