I treat your dog as if my own.
Pet care experience
I had my own black lab for 11 years, after he died I fostered for 2 months, Just now had opportunity to dog sit for a week & it was a win-win for both the owner & myself & hubby. Really planned to foster again but has not happened, found this site so maybe I should dog sit for a hobby & a little extra spending money. I would treat your dog as if it were my own. Stay home except for Sundays gone to church 3 hrs & one shopping day a week which is flexible. Dog would be in family room with dog door to back fenced patio if i had to be gone a short time when keeping a dog, like if i kept one for a week or more. 1 day stays I would be sure to stay home, your dog would be my companion as i work in or outside. I am home mostly, My only scheduled weekly event is church on Sunday mornings. Shop and errands maybe one other day a week if needed. I care for your pet as if it were my own. Most dogs learn to use dog door to fenced patio even if they have never used one.
Reviews
Thank you for taking good care of Lucy!
Mary was amazing to communicate with and we felt very comfortable with her watching Jackson. Would highly recommend. We will for sure be rebooking with her for our next trip out of town. Thanks Mary!!!
Mary keeps maticulous notes and cares for our pup like she was her own. Highly recommend!
Our puppy had a wonderful time. Mary was great at responding and communicating before, during and after Dixie’s stay. She sent updates and pictures which we really appreciate. We could tell Dixie had a great time and was well taken care of.

Fully fenced acre with chain length over 4 ft and double fences back patios, one covered. I give dogs lots of attention just like they were mine. Hubby helps, especially with large dogs, he loves to play fetch if they will retrieve and bring back to him!

Information Mary C. would like to know about your pet
Dog needs to be calm & not a big barker, I stay up till after about 10pm usually and good if dog will sleep in family room alone but I can sleep there if necessary. Any breed that is calm is a good match, we are seniors so best if dog has been left with someone other than owner so not have severe separation anxiety. Multiple dogs from same family ok as long as they get along and can be left together.
A typical day
large 1/4+ acre front fenced yard for running & playing ball when weather permits, otherwise indoor toy playing between naps is my past experience. Fenced patio in back for when i am not out in yard with dog, & large dog door from family room to fenced patio so dog can come in or go out at will.
