Caring Dog Owner Offering 24hr Care

Pet care experience

Hi there! PLEASE READ BEFORE BOOKING. I'm Marvin and I'm Quinn and together we thoroughly enjoy playing, loving, and caring for animals. It is true caring for a pet is not always fun (like when you have to clean up poo!) but they provide so much for us, its the least we can do for them. We are professional at this and take our job very seriously. That means taking care of your loved pet, ensuring that we don't book many dogs as many sitters do (Our limit is 3), providing the pet top notch care, ensuring that they are never alone (100% of the time either one will be watching them, we care for the pet by ensuring they ample water and are eating. This is NOT just a job, but a home away from home that your pet be comfortable in. Over the years, Marvin has had the opportunities to pet sit for families that have had dogs, cats, a lobster, turtles, lizards, fish, and birds. While these animals each have had their challenges, we both believe that when you care and respect animals; when you pay attention to them; when you treat them the way you want to be treated, you will be able to recognize their needs. Marvin and Quinn's experience dealing with special needs animals has been working with dogs that have had surgery and needed medication given to them, a cat that needed subcutaneous fluids, a dog with broken legs, and a blind dog that needed extra special attention and interaction. Another thing that sets us apart is our ability to give your pets 24hr care. Caring for your animals is not just a way for us to make extra money, it is a calling and working together we are willing and able to be there day and night. Furthermore, we understand different people train their dogs in different ways and we are flexible and more than willing to respect your wishes in these matters. Also there are different expectations when one takes care of a loved pet and as long as we are informed of what is expected then you will be pleased with our service. Just let us know what training is being done and I can continue with the program.

Marvin was wonderful. He took in my 3 month old puppy with patience and affection. By the end of the day, pup was as happy to see me as he was sad to leave Marvin. He got lots of exercise, and I got pictures and updates. Marvin was super interested in care details and mellow about challenges.

Totally recommend this sitter. It was my dogs first time away from home, and he had some stomach problems while he stayed with Marvin. I think it was just probably anxiety, but Marvin dealt with it very well and professionally. I would definitely use him again !

Marvin is phenomenal. He was great with my pup. Kept him very active during the day and absolutely had a blast. It was hard to get him back in the car because he did not want to leave, which is a great sign. Highly recommend and will definitely be a repeat experience.
