Dog lover looking to help out!

Hi there! My name is Mary and I’m 29 years old. I’ve been a dog owner for 22 years and an animal lover all of my life. I frequently have helped babysit dogs over the past 10 years. I moved to DC recently from NY and I am missing having a furry friend in my life, as my dog stayed up north with my mom. I am comfortable with all different types of dogs- big or small, I love them all! What makes me special is my love for animals, my energy, and my adaptability for any different situation I’m in. If you have any questions or comments for me, please don’t hesitate to reach out. I’m looking forward to meeting you and your furry bff!

Millie had the best time with Mary! She sent lots of pics and updates, and even brought Millie for a pup cup. I would definitely have her watch Millie again!

Mary was really great watching our dog Leo. She was responsive to texts and sent us photos throughout the day. We will book again with her!

Mary was amazing with my dog, Ellie! She provided lots of updates and photos, and even went back for an extra check in when my flight was delayed.

As always Saaya had a great long weekend with Mary! I really appreciated the frequent updates and pictures. I was a little worried about the noise and fireworks, but Mary made sure Saaya was safe and I was reassured

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live in a pet friendly apartment complex with access to various walking areas and not far from a variety of dog parks. I am happy to accommodate the pet either at my apartment or at the clients home.

A typical day

Go to parks & on long walks. Also I love snuggling up with the dogs after a long day. Your furry friend is more than welcome to make themselves comfortable on my couch right next to me.

Just see if he / she is friendly and if there’s anything that can set them off. I want to ensure I’m making them as comfortable as possible and want to make sure if they have any triggers, I’m well aware of them to ensure we avoid those.
