I work part-time and mostly from home, I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention it deserves! Would love to spend the afternoon going on walks and hanging on the couch with your fur child.

Pet care experience

Grew up in a family with lots of pets, I've been around them my whole life. I recently had to say goodbye to my 14 year old chihuahua, I'm not ready to get another dog at the moment but would love to keep an eye your pet for you.

Mark was great. He was flexible, easy to communicate with, and clearly very caring with my pets. It gave me a lot of peace of mind knowing they were being looked after by someone attentive and responsible. I would definitely recommend Mark to anyone looking for someone reliable to care for their furry loved ones.

Mike was great! I needed a last minute drop-in for my puppy and he was perfect. He took plenty of pictures, took her on a walk, sat with her a bit, and then put her to bed. Definitely what we needed!
