Safety, trust & environment

Although I don't have a fenced in yard, there is a safe neighborhood nearby where we walk our dog daily. I have one dog currently who has loved every other dog he's ever met and would be happy to share his toys! We do allow pets on the couches & beds, but would be able to crate at night if that is preferred.

Information Mary B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog is dog-selective or has any other special needs or behaviors I can account for. I can accommodate for nearly anything so that your dog gets the best care possible.

A typical day

My favorite thing is to think of new ways to keep my dog thinking and would do the same for yours! I love to use puzzle toys, take walks at state parks, and visit the beach!

Insured, responsible, and caring

Pet care experience

Insured with Pet Care Insurance Pet CPR & First aid certified I've been the primary person caring for the household dog for over five years now. I have a keen eye for details and a high sense of responsibility when it comes to the care of those who cannot speak for themselves. I also have experience hosting for multi-day sleepovers and managing the dynamics of a small (2-3 dog) temporary pack. I no longer accept clients who have heavy smells in their homes. This includes, but is not limited to, cigarette smoke, urine, and plug in wall scents. Rates subject to change based on your pets needs.

Thanks Mary for being there for me while in crisis finding a sitter. We also appreciated your professionalism, kindness and care for our pups. The pictures, contacts and communication helped us to feel that are fur babies were well taken care of. Your ability to quickly learn about some of the personalities was great to hear. I recommend you to others without question. Thanks for the accommodation and ability to respond to me so quickly. Will be looking forward to checking back in with you for future dog sitting.

Mary is always great with our dog, Archie. He loves to see her come. We recommend her highly.

Mary it’s probably the best Dogsitter I have ever encountered. She is mature, responsible, timely, and cares very much for the dogs. They all took a liking to her from the first minute. They met her. She did an amazing job taking care of our kids while we were away for the weekend and I would use her again in an incident. She sent pictures and texts and kept us updated at all times about how the kids were doing. Excellent excellent Dogsitter!

Mary is one of our favorite sitters. She gives Archie a lot of attention and he shows his affection for her. He can be a rambunctious 2 year old boxer but she handles him well. She is highly recommended.
