Treating your dog like it’s family!
Hello there! My name is Mary and I have been caring for dogs for more than 30 years and have owned dogs continuously since childhood. As a current dog mom to both a Mini Australian Shepherd and a Cavapoo puppy, I understand that every dog has unique needs, energy levels, and personalities. I’m comfortable caring for energetic dogs who need exercise and engagement, as well as dogs who prefer a slower pace. My experience includes puppies, adult dogs, daily walks, feeding routines, basic training reinforcement, and providing lots of attention and affection. In my professional career, I’ve worked in healthcare for over a decade, where reliability, communication, and attention to detail are essential. I bring those same qualities to pet care and will treat your dog as if they were my own. I know how hard it is to leave your dog with someone else, so I’ll provide regular updates and photos to help you feel connected and confident while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment
As a dog owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to place your pet in someone else’s care. I will treat your dog like one of my own, making their safety, comfort, and happiness my top priorities. During walks, I stay attentive to our surroundings, use secure leashes and harnesses, avoid unsafe situations, and adjust our pace based on your dog’s age, energy level, and needs. I pay close attention to body language and signs of stress, fatigue, or overheating, especially during warmer weather. Whether your pup loves adventure or prefers a leisurely stroll, I’ll make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved every step of the way. I’ll also keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while your furry family member is with me.
