An animal lover all around!

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Mary. I worked as a professional pet sitter throughout college with a local pet sitting agency until the owner retired and closed up shop. It was one of the most rewarding and enjoyable jobs I have ever had - I love all animals (scales and feathers included!) I have also been a Search and Rescue dog handler for four years and I'm looking forward to many more! I have taken care of everything from snakes to crocodiles to horses to birds etc. I have years of experience caring for my own pets as well as others pets, so I hope to take care of your pet while you're away dealing with life or seeing family. You won't have to worry about your fur/scaley/feathered babies at home any longer!

Mary did a fantastic job taking care of Lily! Our dog is high-strung and aggressive around new people, but Lily warmed up to her pretty quickly. Mary took Lily on walks and played fetch with her. Everything was fine when we got home. We would definitely hire her again!

Mary is fantastic with animals! She will go above and beyond to make sure any animal is taken care of. She is an excellent caregiver to the furry and some not so furry friends. Mary has extensive knowledge of all types of animals from fish to cats dogs lizards. You name it and Mary has probably owned or cared for that same type of animal. A regular Dr Doolittle!

Mary is very knowledgeable about several types of animal, she is very good with them as well, she has a big heart for them all, and has worked and sat with a lot of dogs. cats, lizards. She will contact the vets when needing any consulting regarding her own pets as those she has sat with. I recommend her as a great dog sitter they will be in very good hands and treated with respect and care.
