Dog/Cat/Chicken Mom Available

Pet care experience

I have volunteered for a pitbull rescue and an animal shelter for 3 years until I had a foster failure, who required a lot of attention. She is now 11-12 years old and is proud to have cat and chicken siblings. I fostered a senior mini pin and decided to look into sitting/boarding or even visits/walks. I do work full-time and crate train the animals when not home, aside from the cat who has free range of the house. I am comfortable with basic commands and some dog/dog aggression. I do avoid dog parks, only because I don't trust other dogs. I have an enclosed yard with spring poles and leads, even though my resident dog rather bask in the sun. I'm easy going and very flexible.

Mary is such a great dog-sitter. Our two shy little dogs warmed up to her immediately. She has a gentle and easy way about her that they, and we humans, really appreciated. On top of that, she is super responsive and gracious. We hope to keep working with her as long as possible!

Mary is by far my first choice when I need a dog sitter. She took such good care of Juno and kept the house neat and tidy. She kept me updated with pictures and texts. Above all Mary is trustworthy and dependable. Highly recommend!

Mary is great with dogs. I’ve witnessed her work with her two rescue dogs, as well as with a senior dog she’s fostering. She is patient and clearly very comfortable and experienced with dogs at all levels of obedience and energy. She often dog sits for other friends, and I would trust her to watch my dog without hesitation.
