Testimonials
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Mark @ Doggie Steps! Our beloved lab, Skipper and chihuahua Belle, both 12 1/2 and 9 years, have both been trained by Mark (Skip as a puppy and Belle as a 1yr old rescue) as well as boarding them regularly, when we travel. I never worry about our babies as I know they will get the ultimate in tender loving doggie care. He loves and treats them like they were his own. In fact, we fondly refer to him as Uncle Mark! I would absolutely trust Mark with all of your dog training needs. He’s the best!❤️ .”
– Blinda Dadam
“I signed up for a 5 week private course with Mark, in hopes of helping my 2 year old German Shepherd gain more confidence with strangers and other dogs. Mark was always very professional and kind, and truly listened to my concerns. He helped me to feel more confident with Claire while out in public places, gave us the tools we needed for success, and truly made such a big difference in our lives! I can’t wait to continue utilizing the tools we now have, and see where all of this takes Claire and me! Thanks, Mark!!!”
– Susan Blessing
“We completed puppy obedience in our home when our dog was 9 weeks old. I was so grateful to find Mark and that he was willing to come to us! It was very valuable to get the training up front, as he went over crate training and potty training as well. He answered all of our questions (which was a lot!) and really set Louie up for a good training foundation. The introduction to agility was a fun addition to the training as well. Mark is really good at the coaching approach. We definitely recommend him!”
