I love Marlon and his family!! I appreciate the fact that when we got to their house my pup ran right to Marlon’s wife, jumped up and started licking her face. My shyer pup…who will completely avoid anyone he is not comfortable with…ran right over to them. I will keep calling on them to watch my babies whenever I need to go out of town.

We had such an amazing experience with Marlon. From the very beginning, he was incredibly flexible and accommodating, even stepping in to take our dog last minute, which was a huge relief for us. Most importantly, Winter seemed like she had an absolute blast during her stay. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was not only being cared for, but genuinely enjoying herself and feeling comfortable in a new environment. Throughout the entire time, he was extremely helpful, respectful, and professional. Communication was excellent, anytime we asked for updates, he responded promptly and kept us informed, which made us feel even more at ease while we were away. Overall, this was an outstanding experience from start to finish. We’re so grateful for the care Marlon provided and wouldn’t hesitate to use his services again. I would highly highly recommend Marlon to anyone looking for a trustworthy, dependable, and genuinely caring dog sitter. Thank you again Marlon!

Safety, trust & environment

When it comes to safety, trust, and environment, I prioritize your pet's well-being as if they were my own. At home, we enjoy quality time together, ensuring they're always supervised both indoors and outdoors. Your pets become part of my family, and I look out for them with the same care and attention. Whether at my place or yours, their safety and happiness are my top priorities.

A typical day

A typical day with the pets I watch is filled with fun and bonding. We spend quality time together, building strong connections with each visit. We engage in various activities like playing games, interactive sessions, and plenty of potty breaks to ensure their comfort. Each day is an adventure, and I cherish every moment spent with these wonderful pups.
