I have known Mark for several years and we have travelled extensively together in SE Asia. He is a close friend. He is a real animal lover and was devastated to lose his beloved dog Bella to ill health recently. He and Bella were inseparable for 9 years. Mark is very caring when it comes to animals and could often be found befriending cats and dogs whilst we were travelling. The dogs particularly warmed to him and followed him around which he loved. I know that Mark has had many pets in his life including cats, gerbils and chickens. Animal care is very important to him. I would not hesitate to recommend him to take good care of your pet and home. Mark is a successful businesses man, very organised, reliable and efficient. He is also good in a crisis. We stayed in many airbnb homes while travelling and he always took good care of the homes. He is friendly and sociable and makes connections easily wherever he goes. He adapts quickly to new environments. I would highly recommend Mark as the right person to look after your home and pets.
