Former Guide Dog puppy trainer!
Pet care experience
My senior year of high school (2014), I successfully trained a puppy for Guiding Eyes for the Blind! She graduated and worked with a lady who was visually impaired for a year (then she decided she was ready to come back to me and be a forever pet). I have been dog-sitting for friends and family members since I was in high school. I have also helped my friends by providing puppy-do's-&-don'ts as well as obedience training tactics! I have experience caring for young puppies, older doggos (my family's Great Dane just turned 12), and every pup in between! I just moved down here from Pennsylvania and I am currently on the job market, which means I have ALL the time in the world to help care for your four-legged-family-members! My schedule is very flexible this summer. Vanilla, my 7yr old yellow lab (the retired guide-dog), LOVES meeting new friends and enjoys playing ball and going for long walks/runs in the mornings/evenings! We have several awesome parks in the area and are only 8 blocks from the beach.
Reviews
Mallory is so great caring for our little pup. She has been available on very short notice which has helped us out so so much! She always sends updates when she arrives along with pictures and videos which eases our mind and brightens our day at work. She definitely knows her stuff when it comes to caring for dogs and has offered us tons of helpful tips and tricks along the way. I couldn't recommend her more if you're looking for the best care for your little friend!
Mallory was so great to work with! She was available to give our pup a potty break & walk on short notice, was able to come in advance for a meet and greet, and was so patient with our fur baby! She sent a ton of photos and an update too which I loved getting. Would definitely choose her to take care of our pup again!!
Mallory has a passion for and a way with all animals, especially dogs. She gave me support with raising my first puppy years ago, and has been an incredible resource ever since. It’s amazing to go away and not have to worry about my Lab’s anxiety being a burden. Mallory not only makes sure she is taken care of, but also understands and is in tune to my dog’s ridiculously needy, clingy, and sensitive, personality as well.. and makes me feel like she’s not a burden for it!! I always feel at peace when I know my pup is in her care. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for, exercise, or just love on their pups.
Mallory is the ultimate dog mom!! She is very experienced with pets. Her attention to detail is unmatched as she knows how to appropriately care for your pet under any circumstance. She is truly so loving, insightful, and such a great addition!
