Club Mark Canine-One dog at a time

Pet care experience

I've developed my pet sitting/boarding/housesitting business through Rover over the past 3+ years. I love hosting dogs with my beautiful fenced backyard in Central Boulder. I try to create a "Club Med" type experience for my pets and they get my one-on-one care for the entire stay. No Kennel cough at Canine Club Mark. My original plan was to pet sit/board for a while, figure out the best breed/size for me and find a great dog rescue to adopt. I've ended up loving being a pet sitter/boarder and the service that I provide in Boulder county area. I really enjoy just being a pet sitter for now and have good dog karma. I will send lots of photos and videos of your pet via text or What's App if you are traveling out of US. It helps me stay connected with you. And helps me create a great portfolio of dogs that I've cared for... Our family home was like a zoo growing up. Lots of cats, dogs, hamster, guinea pigs, etc. We took care of our friends’ pets often and I've always had good pet mojo. I enjoy caring for different breeds of dogs. I live by myself with no kids, roommates, or pets in my home. I’m focused on creating an outstanding, safe environment for your pet and only take one dog/cat at a time to allow me to create that special bond. My backyard is completely fenced in with lots of green grass to run on and roll in snow. It gives my pets that “Canine Club Mark” feeling of doing whatever they want. I love their companionship. Dog sitting/walking gives me an opportunity to play by creeks, ponds and lakes to help get my water fix. The social aspect of meeting other dog owners and my neighbors is really rewarding for me. I am self-employed ecommerce/marketing consultant and work from the home that I've owned in Boulder since 1992. I like to plan things in advance whenever possible so please give me as much notice as possible. That said, I have bookings that cancel at last minute so keep me in mind for short notice stays. I am sparing with dog treats and consider myself to be a patient pet owner. My pets do really well here as evidenced by my positive reviews. Happy to care for dogs and cats in my home or yours.

Mark was wonderful with my dog, Mia. Lots of walks and photos! One on one worked out great for her - less stressful at her age, even though she likes other dogs. Thanks!!!!

Mark was great with our pup! We were away for almost two weeks, and each day we received updates and photos. Mark was sensitive to our dog's needs and it was reassuring to know that he was in good hands!

I can't thank Mark enough for the wonderful job he did watching my dog while I was out of town. The amount of exercise and love provided to my dog were unmatched. I felt so at peace while away, knowing my dog was in the best hands possible. I will absolutely be using Mark again!!

My fenced backyard is a dog's paradise. They love to frolic in the snow, clean their claws in the grass and take liberty pooping/peeing wherever they want. We do not have many dogs at neighbors near my backyard currently and my dogs love having the space to themselves.

A typical day

I live in central Boulder near many hiking/biking trails that are close to clean streams and creeks. I love playing in the creeks with my dogs and frequently join them. I'm an avid hiker and like to take them on gentle trails in the mountains. Dog parks and play dates with my local friends' dogs are great ways to engage socially if your dog is up for it...

I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This allows me to do walks and exercising at the optimal time of day. I love to take my pets to nearby creeks and often go into the water with them...in the summer.
