At the risk of making Marc even more in demand than he already is, we give him 5 stars+ It's a giant leap of faith having a total stranger live unsupervised in your house for several days. However, from the moment we met Marc, we knew Annie and our house would be well taken care of. And of course, checking references confirmed what we already surmised. That Marc is an outstanding pet sitter. Annie suffers from pretty extreme COVID related separation anxiety (as apparently do we), and this was our first time apart for a night, let alone 4. Marc brought his own dog, Levi, to the job (no extra charge, lol). Levi was a great distraction for Annie. And Marc's regular communication (texts, pictures and videos) kept our own separation anxiety to a minimum. In summary, we have no hesitation recommending Marc, other than, as I say, that he might be less available for us in the future :-).

Marc is an amazing pet sitter and house sitter. I never worry when we go away because I know the dogs and the house will be cared for just like I would. We go away for several weeks at a time and I do not worry one minute while I am away. Marc walks the dogs more than I do and that, too, is a blessing. He is trustworthy and he loves and cuddles with the dogs and Yummy's House Sitting is THE BEST!!!

Marc is amazing! We found him on this app literally less than 12 hours before we were leaving for the weekend after our sitter cancelled. He responded almost immediately and was at our home the next morning to meet our dog. I knew immediately that Marc was very kind and talented with animals. Our dog is a rescue and we’ve only had him 3 months. Marc was very gentle with him and I felt our dog immediately at ease. Marc was very responsive all weekend giving us updates and letting us know how our baby was doing. We are thrilled to have found him and will definitely be using him in the future! 5 stars all the way!!!

Marc has been my pet sitter from more than 10 years. He is beyond excellent. He is reliable, intelligent and kind. These qualities make him a perfect person to care for my beloved dogs.
