Responsible & Experienced
Pet care experience
I live in Lakeview & work full time from home so I have a lot of flexibility! I am an early riser so have no problem with early morning walks or runs. I have a 7 yo 80lb pitbull, Dino, and will care for your pup as though they're my own. There are no children at this apartment and Dino is extremely mellow and always gets along with other dogs. I will be sure to respect and follow all rules you set for your loved one and am happy to share as many updates throughout as you prefer! We live near Lake Michigan so walks near the beach or around the nearby parks are a definite if you’re in the area. I'm a very active person, so I am down for as much exercise as your dog needs/prefers.
Reviews
Mairin has everything you’d want of someone to care for your pup - she’s always on time, is very loving and compassionate, and can be disciplined, but is always playful. On top of that, she’s very active; want your dog to get a 5 mile run in? She can do that. Just need someone to cuddle them for a bit while your away? She can do that too. Overall, there’s nobody better to take care of your dog.
I have known Mairin for years and enthusiastically recommend her! Mairin has helped care for my golden retriever puppy Ginnie and my parents' energetic aussie Callie — every time she has been incredibly reliable, professional, and Ginnie and Callie come back happy and well-exercised! Mairin is very flexible and truly goes above and beyond to ensure my Ginnie has the best time and her needs are met. I wholeheartedly believe Mairin cares for Ginnie like she was her own. I strongly recommend Mairin to anyone and everyone that's looking for someone to provide excellent care for their pet!

Safety, trust & environment
When picking up pups and dropping them off from their homes I will be sure to spend time making sure they’re comfortable with a stranger and confirm with their parent how they typically react to strangers if it’s our first walk. I will respect all house rules and am okay with any special requests!
Home
Information Mairin & Patrick J. would like to know about your pet
I'm open to any dog breeds and do currently have an adult dog in our home - he’s very friendly and low energy and is used to other dogs staying with us. I would love to know your dog's energy level, if they have any specific fears (storms, loud noises, other animals..), and anything else you want me to know about your pup!
A typical day
I love being outside and live right near the lake, which is great for running around, playing fetch, and getting lots of exercise. I love walking / running on the lakeshore trail and would love to take your pup with me!
