Safety, trust & environment

I make sure that my personal belongings that are brought into the home are kept in a safe spot where the pet doesn’t have access. I check with the dog owner to make sure of specific safety precautions for the pet prior to the scheduled pet sitting.

Information Mairin R. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful to know what the owners do and don't allow the dog to do on a normal basis. For example, I typically enjoy snuggling with dogs on either a couch or bed, but if it's not allowed by the owner, then I won't do it. It would also be helpful for me to know how often the dog goes to the restroom, and if the dog knows any commands.

A typical day

Depending on where the owner lives, I will take the dog on a walk either in the park or along the sidewalk in the neighborhood. I make sure to keep the dog close to me at all times so that they stay safe from surrounding dogs and cars. I also enjoy taking dogs in the car on a drive, and even on an errand that doesn't require us to leave the car. If the owner doesn't live near a park, I will gladly find a park nearby, and take the dog for a walk, and depending on how trust worthy the dog is, I will play some fetch with them!

Always happy to help!

Pet care experience

When I’m home, I enjoy playing with dogs and taking them for walks! I want the dog to feel the most comfortable with me, so I make sure to ask the owners what things the dog likes and dislikes. I also love watching dogs of all shapes and sizes, both male and female. I think this is a great way to serve people and their furry children! I go above and beyond to make sure the owners are kept up to date with how their dog is doing, and am completely trustworthy and responsible when it comes to taking care of either the house, animals, or both! If you prefer that I give you a list of people who I’ve dogsat for, I will be more than happy to do that! I also want to mention that I am fully vaccinated!

Mairin did a great job with Sabrina. Sabrina is an senior dog and required alot of special care. Mairin looked after her like she was her own.

Mailing did a great job with my cats which I was out of town for 9 days. She always kept me updated and sent lots of pictures. Would use her again!

Mairin did a great job! She was great at communicating their activities and sending pictures. Felt very comfortable with her staying at the house. I would definitely use her in the future
