I work remotely so am home during the day and evenings. If the dog is up for it, I take them for long walks in my neighborhood and on the trails that are close by.

I have a fenced in back yard and leave the door open so the pups have easy access to the inside and outside. My 2 resident dogs love the company!

Reviews

Kind, competent, flexible dog lovers. Our new go-to Rover people!


Lucky and Nala are comfortable and happy at Mary's. We are so glad to have found her!

Our dog Chef was well taken care by Mary. Communication was quick and easy.

Mary is fantastic! She takes good care of Stella and takes her for long walks everyday. Mary follows all of the necessary diet and medicine instructions, and keeps me updated on my baby while I'm away. She has two lovely dogs herself, who are like a little pack that my dog can be a part of. I have already booked with Mary twice and will definitely do so again.
