Mark was great! He took such great care of our dog while we were away. It was our first time leaving her so we were a little worried that she would be lonely and depressed. Not at all! She had a great time and got plenty of walks and tv time (walks and tv time are her favorites!) I appreciate that Mark was willing to take a job with short notice; and he sent lots of photo updates while we were away. Thanks!!!

Mark was great! Went above and beyond sending pictures and updates on our pup. Will definitely be asking him again next time we use Rover.

I had Mark come to our house the last 3 days and once again he took great care of my two high maintenance dogs. He fed them, played with them and took care of our house like it was his own. I can’t explain how great Mark has been with Mia a large German Sheppard and Louie a 12 year old Shitzu! He feeds them correctly and is their friend. I get pictures and videos on the regular and he takes great care of the house when we have him take care of our two family members. Thanks Mark and keep up the great work. You can tell Mark loves animals. We are very lucky to have found him. Moving forward no one will ever watch our dogs other than Mark.

Mark was great! Highly recommend! The dogs all enjoyed their time together. He went above and beyond when he noticed one of the dogs eating grass and mowed my yard!!! Cannot recommend enough. Thanks Mark!!
