Very Hands on with your Fur-Baby

Pet care experience

I have been caring for family pets for many years, and have recently expanded my business. I love dogs and they love me. I have a very empathetic nature and dogs just seem to know that I love them and would not hurt them. I combine dog and house sitting so that the pet can be in their own home. I leave any place I sit the same way I found it. I love to play chase, I can throw the ball for hours and I love to walk a dog. I currently have a client that has a work dog that has to be exercised every two hours. I delight in spending time with him and two female dogs I house/dog sit for. I enjoy the unconditional love that these pets give, and I give the same in return.

We have had Mary come multiple times to care for our dog Butch Valentine as well as our kitty Snow while out of town for various reasons. She is very nice and easy to talk to. The animals really love her. She has always gone above and beyond to ensure our pets are happy and healthy during our absence. I would recommend Mary to anyone looking for a dog sitter. I'm sure we will have her back in the future.

Imagine how you would want your dog/home cared for while you were away, and Mary would be the answer. The level of compassionate care and communication during our four days away from home were excellent. She is now our first and only choice for taking care of our Australian Shepherd.

Mary is excellent, loving, responsible, and conscientious, with a lifetime's experience caring for dogs. I highly recommend her to care for your dog when you need a dog sitter or dog walker, either for short or long periods of time.

Mary is a wonderful dog caregiver. She truly loves dogs of all sizes and is always ready to play with them, provide create companionship as well as taking care of their basic needs. We feel comfortable knowing our dog is being well taken care of in our home, her environment, with someone who cares as much as we do for her. We highly recommend Mary. David B.

Information Mary B. would like to know about your pet

I love them all, but I am a small woman, so I couldn't walk a Saint Bernard, but I can handle 45lbs. I have no breed preference, they are all wonderful. I would like to know the dogs usual schedule and would ask for any numbers I might need in cases of emergency. If the dog has any bad habits, that's fine, just let me know about them, we can work around your fur-baby

A typical day

Depending on your area, I will find the closest park and there are places that allow dogs, such as Lowes. I find that pets love to be taken somewhere. If you have a large yard and prefer that your dog not travel to the park or the doggie store, we can work with what makes you, the parent, happy. I love to play doggie puzzle toys with them and try to teach them tricks
