Count on me to look after your pet!

Pet care experience

I will go above and beyond for your pet! Beyond sitting and walking, I can also offer bathing and re-supply for pet food and treats! Please tell me what you need and I will do my best to help you :) About me: I am a pet parent to a 10 year old Morkie. My clients trust me to provide reliable quality care for their pets while they are away. I can handle all sizes, puppies, seniors and everything between. I also have experience administering oral medication. I also come from a healthcare/biology background, so I am also able to recognize less obvious danger signs such as low pulse, pale gums, distention, retching, refusing food/water for >1-2 days, disorientation, or excessive drooling. These are all possible signs that something potentially life-threatening is going on with your pet and indicate immediate veterinary consultation.

Thank you again for the infinitely superior level of care you consistently give to my darling cats Blaze & Starlette. Mark is my preferred cat sitter, and I thank God for him.

Mark is super caring, thoughtful, and sweet with pets. He also kept me very informed everyday with his visits with my pets and I’d trust him no matter what to watch over anyone’s pets.

Mark came last minute to help while we were out of town. There was an issue with our doorman not having a key ready, and Mark went above and beyond to help out. I really appreciate him, and just know that if you book Mark for services, he will go above and beyond to make sure the job is taken care of!

Mark is extraordinary. He continues to provide an optimal level of care for my cats Blaze and Starlette. I prefer working with him over anyone else. God Bless Mark.

Information Mark W. would like to know about your pet

When you message me, we can set up a Meet & Greet so I can get to know you and your pup’s needs before you book. Please let me know how your dog is around other dogs, and if you are okay with having your dog walked with multiple other dogs. I would also like to know if they have any triggers for anxiety/fear, chase, or aggression.

A typical day

I prefer dog parks, to allow for supervised socialization and games of fetch. If there is no nearby dog park, a leashed walk around a regular park is the next best. Either way, you can be assured that your pup will get the exercise they need!
