Hi there my name is Mary I am a previous dog owner looking to care for other small dogs (30 lb Max) at my home. I have been retired for 12 years and I recently had to say goodbye to my faithful companion of 17 years, an adorable and energetic miniature Schnauzer named Tina. I’ve raised several dogs in my lifetime. I enjoyed caring and loving my fur babies. I often sit for those belonging to family and friends whenever there’s a need.
I have a back yard for leash walks and fresh air. Just tell me about their usual day and we’ll make it happen! Looking forward to meeting your furry family member, and I’ll love them like they’re mine.

If I could give more stars, I would!!!! Mary and Larry were absolutely beyond amazing. They frequently updated me with pictures and videos of my dog while I was away, missing her. They are kind, and were so loving towards my dog. I could tell immediately how wonderful they were and I will absolutely be bringing my dog back if they are available in the future.

Mary and Larry took great care of Sadie as always. Their lovely fenced back yard is always a big hit, and a resident herd of squirrels in the area give Sadie hours of watching entertainment. She only wishes she could catch one some day.
