About Marco

Professional service & expert with old, sick, and rescued dogs 😃

I help improve the social behaviour of your doggie

I do also petsit cats 🐈

Hoi! Hi! Hola! I am Marco from Peru, I am here in The Netherlands for more than 8 years and I was living with my dog Jagger till he passed away in 2021. Jagger was a rescued dog who was traumatised and for instance had trouble to socialise with other dogs. During time he became super social with other dogs and learned to follow my commands.

At the end of Jagger's life he had many diseases so he needed special care and for that I learned to treat a sick dog. I decided to use all my extensive knowledge and experience with Jagger and his social adaptation and many sicknesses he had to become a pet sitter that provides special care to old, sick, or rescued dogs.

I learned to make special diets, to provide medicines, supplements, to know when to take him to the vet, to talk with vets, to doubt about what the vet tells me. Also, I took very special care of Jagger as he was old, and I know the struggles of every old dog for example, the steep stairs of buildings, the type of floor, the temperature, the noise etc etc etc. Also, I am a very good reader when a dog doesn't like something, is in pain, wants to go outside for needs, or is uncomfortable.

I have plenty of room in my house, near 90m2 and balcony in front of the Ij waters.

I have no problem dealing with any type of dog, any breed, any age, or other disabilities. if he/she is sick I can provide medicines, supplements, pills, etc etc.

I will provide you pics and videos all time. Also, I have a car with all implements for transportation (if needed)

I am happy to meet you and your baby dog for an introductory meeting where you can get to know me and see if there is fit.

Important: During high season December 15 till January 06 applies an extra daily fee.

*****Currently living in Ijburg - Amsterdam in a dog-friendly area with a lot of fenced and green spaces - i offer free pick-up and return with my car**********

Marco is a great sitter. My pup definitely had a vacation while I was on vacation. He stays in contact with you throughout the stay with pictures and videos of your furry friend. He is great working with your pup and any anxieties they may have. So much so that Kara was staring out the window looking for him after her stay. I would highly recommend Marco for your pet sitting needs.

My dog Deniro felt at home with Marco. This being my dog’s first home stay with a sitter, I was anxious. But Marco’s clear communication and details really made us well prepared to leave our dog with him for 10 days. There were regular updates and pictures which always kept me updated. I will definitely recommend Marco for your pet’s next home stay :)
