Pet care experience

Vacation home for your pets!

My son and I have raised and trained multiple dogs and cats over the years. We have a three-bedroom home with a large, fenced backyard for your dog to play in securely. We would love to show your pet the same undivided attention as we did ours. We love to go on walks in the neighborhood or the occasional run if your pet enjoys that.

Mark took great care of my girl Bailey. He sent me pictures and updates and it was very clear Bailey was comfortable and happy during her stay(:

We couldn’t be happier with the care Mark provided for Coco during his stay. Coco was with him for an extended period of time, and we could tell from the very beginning that he felt completely comfortable and at ease with Mark and his son. That gave us so much peace of mind throughout the entire time. Mark also kept us updated throughout Coco’s stay and regularly sent us photos of him, which we really appreciated. Being able to see Coco happy, comfortable, and enjoying himself made us feel so much more relaxed and reassured. Thanks to Mark, my husband and I were able to be completely at ease knowing that Coco was in the best hands and being so well cared for. It was clear that he was happy, comfortable, and receiving lots of love and attention. We would absolutely recommend Mark without hesitation to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and responsible to look after their pet. We will definitely choose him again if we ever need someone to take care of Coco in the future. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Thanks for watching Chip on short notice. It’s comforting to know that you have patience with Chip being skittish. Looks like he enjoyed himself running around the yard. Again, much appreciated!

Sarge had a blast hanging out with Mark and his son. They did a great job keeping up with his meds and making sure he had enough treats :)

Schedule

I am self-employed and my 15-year-old son is in high school. I am on the road for a few hours at a time but never too far away to allow for potty breaks. We would be happy to care for your pet anytime.
