Pet care experience

Happiness Is A Wag & A Wet Nose

I've been around animals my whole life - dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, fish, lizards, hermit crabs...I don't know life without fur (or scaly) babies! Dog walking has always been very cathartic for me and it's never felt like a chore. I'm completely comfortable walking any size and any age dog and truly believe in treating any fur baby as my own. While I do love all animals, dogs are the most nonjudgmental and pure creatures; so who wouldn't want to spend time with them?

Safety, trust & environment

I’m very aware of animals’ safety and environments. I have experience with escape artist dogs who need to be closely monitored even when they’re fenced in. I have also cared for highly anxious dogs who need calm and consistent environments to alleviate their stress. I’m very adept in providing whatever environment the pet needs to feel safe and secure.

If my black lab Samps could talk, this is what he would say about Mallory: "I love my Auntie Mallory! I can hardly contain myself when I hear her car pull in the driveway. When she comes in I want to jump on her to say hi, but she follows the same expectations as my owner, so she gently reminds me what to do. I love walking the trails with Auntie Mal, and she always makes sure I'm safe and have plenty of water and healthy food to enjoy. From the first time I met her, I just knew Mallory genuinely loved me and I could trust her." Mallory is an awesome person and THE BEST with my Samps!

Mallory is our go to dog sitter. She is caring and warm and enjoys taking Mollie on long walks. Mallory takes the time to get to know your four legged friend. She cares for your pet as if it was her own.

To Whom It May Concern; I would like to highly recommend Mallory Rioux as animal caregiver. I have known Mallory for a number of years and can testify to her outstanding character, dependability and her immense love of animals. I have had her take care of my animals for the past 10 years while we were on vacation and there has never been an issue or problem. I know that she is the proud owner of 2 cats, 1 rabbit , 1 Bearded Dragon and a Beta Fish. She has great rapport with all my animals (currently 4 cats and 1 dog). If you have any questions for me or if I can be of further assistance please feel free to contact me. Sincerely, Kim

41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Mallory can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I'd like to know the same things I'd want to know before taking care of a child - what they like to do, what they like to eat, their routines, etc. I don't have a breed preference - they're all great!
