I’ve always had at least one pet!
Pet care experience
I love animals so much and they’ve always been a part of my home in some way. Whether it’s dogs, cats, rats, Guinea pigs, geckos, fish, or many others. I grew up working with and around livestock as a child as well. Animals have always been a big part of my life but I can’t own them all no matter how much I wish I could. So in the meantime, I would love to meet all your adorable pets!
Reviews
Marquis is great with Leche! He took the time to meet him and interact with him. He did an awesome job!!!!! Definitely recommend
He takes such good care of our Leche! Super happy with Marquis!!!!!
Marquis has taken care of my dogs for me while I work for the past 3 years, and I always come home to tired, happy, clean dogs. He successfully helped one of my pets lose weight with diet and exercise, and has trained a lot of reactivity out of my other dog. He knows their preferences in food, play, toys, and even weather.
Marquis is one of my best friends. He helped take care of my 23 year old cat and currently has 2 dogs. Those two dogs might have won the lottery getting the most love and care a person can offer. Not only is he a loving owner he is a dependable and responsible man anyone can trust. With a steadfast work ethic and integrity I would trust him with my kid if I had any.
About Marquis C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I often interact with toys and puzzles. If I take pets outside, I prefer to have an ID collar on at all times. If they’re not fenced in or going on a walk, I prefer to use a harness and leash combo. I've had several phases of pets getting sick and needing administered medicine or ointments.
Information Marquis C. would like to know about your pet
If your dog is still teething or loves to gnaw on hands, I can bring some safe chew toys to play with them. Some dogs need to go outside more than others so don't feel shy about sharing their bathroom schedule.
A typical day
I can play fetch and tug with dogs for hours. Sometimes I take healthy treats and hide them around the back yard for a sniffing stimulation. If the weather is bad I'll instead use snuffle mats or puzzle toys inside. Another fun game for my dogs and cats is when I run my hand around like a spider under a blanket.

Every morning, I take my two dogs out first thing. Then once they’re finished going outside, I’m able to say “bath” as a command to get into the bathtub to have their paws washed. Then I give them kibble with fish oil and a little bit of toy activity. Later on in the afternoon I take them outside for more play or a walk depending on the weather. They know the command “go home” and then I’m able to wash their paws again before dinner.
