Availability
I’m available full time to watch and take care of your pets around the clock. I recently moved here from Los Angeles where I worked full time and dog sat on the side. Now dog sitting is my full time job as caring for animals is my true passion! I’m fully available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

About Mark W.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a home with a fenced back yard, a pool if your pup enjoys swimming, and a neighborhood of safe sidewalks for walking. I enjoy boarding your dog at my home or I’m happy to take care of them at your residence. Whichever makes your pup feel most comfortable makes me happiest. I can crate your dog if needed or let them roam free in the house. Dog sitting is my full time job so I offer as many potty breaks/walks as your pup needs. Your baby’s safety is my top priority - unless otherwise stated, I try to keep your pup away from other dogs during walks/hikes to ensure their comfort and minimize anxiety. I will never put your dog in harm’s way if I don’t know how other dogs/owners will behave.

Information Mark W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog requires any medication or other special needs that I can accommodate. I want to make their time with me as pleasant and stress free as possible! :)
A typical day
I love to stimulate and energize your dog with lots of games, toys, and activities. Whether it’s fetch, tug of war, fast paced or more leisurely walks, I’ll make sure your pup has a great time getting their energy out! We’ll go for walks in my neighborhood where they can explore the new smells and views, play in the pool if they enjoy water, or just relax in the sun or indoors. I’m down for whatever they enjoy. Once they’ve had their share of play time, I always give lots of pets, belly rubs, and cuddles. I also have a number of puzzles/games to provide your pup with a fun mental challenge or he’ll distract them if they are anxious in your absence. Unless you prefer their crate, I leave it up to your pup to decide where they’d like to sleep. Otherwise I’m always up for snuggling in bed if they enjoy sleeping next to someone.

Your Pup’s New Best Friend
Pet care experience
People call me the dog whisperer. I’ve always felt most comfortable around dogs ever since I was a little kid. I’ve taken care of every type of dog - breeds, sizes, temperaments, and ages - from 8 week old pups to seniors over 16 years old. My friends say I’m like a puppy trapped in a man’s body - if there’s a dog around, you’ll find me on the floor playing and giving them attention 100% of the time. Dogs deserve to be treated with the same love and respect they give us humans, so I take pride in offering the best possible care to your furry four-legged family member. I have over 18 years of experience walking, sitting, bathing, giving medicine, and potty training dogs. And I look forward to becoming your pup’s new best friend!
Reviews
Our dogs love Mark! They’re always happy to see him and come back tired after their walks. We feel so comfortable and confident when Mark is taking care of our fur babies!
Mark was such an amazing house/dog sitter and took great care of our beloved angel, Charlie. He went above and beyond and made me feel so comfortable and assured being away. We recently lost our other dog Lily and his compassion and care was so appreciated. We will definitely have Mark back - thank you so much again!
Mark was wonderful. We have two old dogs and Mark treated them with extreme love and care. He even had to give meds and deal with a scared dog on a stormy night. Handled it as a pro. Would definitely recommend and plan to use him again and again.
Mark was amazing with our two pups! He kept great care of our home and was very attentive to our dogs. He was extremely communicative and provided plenty of updates while we were away. He’ll be our go-to for any of our future trips!
