Pet care experience

Gentle & Trusted Pet Care

I’ve been providing dependable, loving pet care for 6+ years, and what sets me apart is the level of comfort, patience, and genuine attention I give every pet I watch. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away not just “watched.” I have experience caring for pets of all personalities and energy levels, including playful puppies, anxious pets, and senior dogs who need a gentler pace and extra patience. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and making sure every pet receives plenty of affection and companionship. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is always to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. 🐾

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I provide care exclusively in my client’s home because I believe pets are often the most comfortable in a familiar environment with their normal routine. Keeping pets in their own space helps reduce stress and allows them to feel safe, relaxed, and secure while their owners are away. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions to ensure they receive the best care possible. Safety and trust are extremely important to me, so I treat every client’s home with respect and care while also making sure their pets receive plenty of attention, affection, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout my stay. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. 🐾

Mary was excellent! She was quick to respond and the meet and greet went well and she was very patient with our dog. She provided regular updates and we had no issues whatsoever. Highly recommended!

I cannot recommend this pet sitter enough! They were incredibly kind, considerate, and attentive not only to my dog, but to me as well. From the moment I left, I felt reassured knowing my pet was in such caring hands. They provided regular updates, responded quickly whenever I reached out, and made sure my dog was happy, comfortable, and fully cared for the entire time. When I returned home, my dog was clearly happy and well taken care of, which meant everything to me. On top of that, my home was left safe, clean, and exactly as I had left it. It’s such a relief finding someone trustworthy who genuinely cares for animals. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and compassionate pet care!

Mary A. Is wonderful with animals of all types. She has a way with animals unlike anything I have seen before. Dependable, trustworthy, and caring is something everyone wants for their pets when they are away and Mary goes above and beyond these expectations. She treats your babies as if they are her own.

Schedule

I do work a full-time 9–5 job during the week, but pet care still fits very naturally into my routine and schedule. I make it a priority to return home directly after work to spend time with the pets in my care, and I typically only leave for necessities like work or grabbing food. I’m very routine oriented and make sure pets receive consistent attention, potty breaks, feeding, exercise, affection, and companionship throughout the day and evening. On weekends and outside of work hours, I’m home much more often and able to dedicate even more time to them. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and relaxed while their owners are away. 🐾
