Pet care experience

Must Love Dogs

I've recently sold my home in Holts Summit & am moving to Hallsville, MO. To all my customers over the last year, Thank you so much for entrusting me with the care of your fur babies. I've meet wonderful people & most of all, thier wonderful pets. Until I've settled in my new home, I won't be taking on the care of furbabies. The main priority is getting my yard fenced so I can do so in the future. For those of you who want to continue with my services, I would be willing to meet in Ashland for pickup & drop-off. For any new customers, this is only my 2nd year doing Rover but I have lots of experience with animals. Rabbits, horses even cows & rabbits but mostly dogs & cats. My home is a calm space & works best for older calm, mellow pets. I'm home for most of the day & they get lots of potty breaks. I hope to be available for bookings by end of August, early Sep. Thanks again for allowing me to be part of your babies lives.

Mary was great! She showed up on time and she spent time with the dogs at her visits which we had not had before using this app.

Once again, Mary B. stepped up for us when we were unable to take care of our boy, Dobby. She is great with him and we trust her to take good care of him. Thanks for everything, Mary.

Mary did a great job for us in dire circumstances. My wife and I suffered serious injuries recently and could not take care of our, Dobby. Mary stepped up and took wonderful care of our boy for several weeks. She was great and we will use Mary again, without hesitation. Multiple thumbs up!

Pets

A typical day

I do have a bad knee so my walks are limited. If they are easy on a leash it's doable. Toys are available & we can play fetch or ball

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Mary can host up to 1 pet per night
I do prefer older dogs at this point. I have a pretty quiet household. There are not alot of comings & goings. This seems to work better for the more anxious pets
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
