Grew up with 3 dogs and 3 cats!

Pet care experience

I understand what it means for a furry friend to be a true part of the family. My mom is a veterinarian, so we always had lots of pets growing up, including 3 dogs and 3 cats. For 10 years, I also did pet sitting in my neighborhood, and after Hurricane Harvey, I fostered a cat for a year. Two years ago, I adopted a senior Shetland Sheepdog who is my fur baby. Dogs and cats have always been a big part of my life, and I enjoy getting to spend the same love and care on other pet companions through Rover. Your pet is important to you, so I will make sure they receive the care and attention your furry family member deserves. I look forward to meeting and caring for your pet! ♥️

We loved Mary! She was so sweet with my kids during our meet and greet. They adored her and already talk about the next time Mary will come back to take care of our cat. She was very responsive and sent great photo updates during her daily visits. We felt very secure that our cat was in great hands while we were away.

Mary has walked our pups for a couple weeks now and we will definitely be rebooking her as much as possible. She’s attentive, punctual and both dogs love her. I’m sure others can relate, but it’s hard to fine someone you can trust with your fur babies and Mary gives me no doubt.

Safety, trust & environment

Whenever I care for your pet, I take great care to make sure your pet is comfortable and has the chance to greet me - a new person - in their home. I also ensure that playing with your pet is always fun but safe and your pet has all he or she needs until you are home.

Information Mary A. would like to know about your pet

Before my visit, it would be helpful to know whether your pet needs food or medicine. I will always ensure there is a full bowl of fresh water left for them.

A typical day

It is my priority during visits to make sure your pet not only gets exercise, but also mental stimulation and enjoyment from my visit. During walks or visits, I take time to ensure your dog can explore new smells and his or her surroundings. For your cat, I am sensitive to their desire to engage with me and want to make sure they are comfortable and content. I offer pets, scratches, and toys in case your pet would like affection or to play. My goal is to see your pet smile!
