Pet care experience

Paws, Play & Paradise! 🐾🌲

I was born and raised surrounded by animals, and I’ve been caring for dogs of every kind for as long as I can remember. Family and friends have always relied on me to walk, feed, train, and love their dogs like my own. My family and I are also German Shepherd breeders, so dogs are truly part of our everyday life. Because we both work from home, your pup will never be left without attention and care. We often take our dogs to the park and even on store outings for training and socialization, so your fur baby will have plenty of stimulation and fun.

This was Buster's first time with Mary and he fit in well. He is a kind of nervous dog and he was less stressed when he came home than with other experiences. Mary sent pictures and video's which was very nice. We will board Buster there again.

IF YOURE LOOKING FOR A FIRST TIME SITTER MARY IS THE ONE!!! Mary took incredible care of my pup. I was so nervous at first, I never left my boy with a stranger, but she made me feel so at ease. She sent me constant updates and has the space an patience to take great care of my high energy and attention dog. Most of all, she was the most accommodating and patient with me as an owner, I threw a lot of things on her last minute and she not only took it on with a smile, she continued to deliver exceptional service. I could not recommend anyone more, and for the price as a college student this was the perfect experience.

Mary and her husband made me feel totally comfortable on arrival. I got to see Skippy's sleeping quarters, insulated and safely crated in a nice garage and saw Skippy's future playmates who peeked their muzzles through the gate. Multiple pictures and videos of Skip having fun with Mary's dogs made me feel like I should have been born a Canis domesticus. Organized, clean, efficient, excellent communication and great vibes. Skippy loved it and is sound asleep, snoring, as i write this , from all the fun. It is so nice to people who obviously love dogs and know what they are doing.

Such a great experience for our dogs and ourselves! First time using a pet sitter and we were put at ease as soon as we left them. We have 2 rambunctious boys, Mary and her husband took such great care of them. They have a huge wonderful fenced in yard and clean kennels. We were given daily updates along with videos and photos. Love that we have someone local and trustworthy, we’ll definitely book again! Our boys are happy and so are we.

Schedule

Because we work from home, caring for pets is part of our everyday life. Your dog (or cat) will never be left alone for long periods—we’re able to give them attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. Walks, feeding, and potty breaks naturally fit into our routine, and we often go to the park or on short outings for enrichment and socialization. With our own dogs, we’re used to a structured schedule, so adding your pet into that rhythm is easy and natural.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At our home, we provide a secure fenced yard for play, supervised outdoor time, and crate options of various sizes if needed or requested. All pets in our care must be up-to-date on vaccinations to ensure a healthy environment for everyone. I closely supervise interactions between dogs and make sure play is safe and appropriate. Our three German Shepherds are well-trained and friendly, offering companionship and socialization opportunities. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect your space, follow your instructions carefully, and maintain your pet’s usual routine to reduce stress. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, structure, and lots of love. 🐾

Pets

A typical day

Each day with us is filled with love, attention, and fun! Dogs and cats in our care enjoy structured routines including feeding, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. For dogs, we provide walks, backyard play, and enrichment activities like fetch or training exercises. Our three friendly German Shepherds provide companionship and socialization, making your dog feel at home. Cats receive plenty of gentle attention, interactive play, and cozy spots to relax. We also provide daily photo and video updates so you can see your pet enjoying their day. Whether it’s a walk to the park, playtime with toys, or quiet cuddle time, we make sure every pet feels loved and engaged. 🐾

To ensure the best care for your pet, we ask that all dogs are up-to-date on vaccinations and that you provide any special instructions regarding diet, medications, or behavior. We love all pets, but knowing their personality, energy level, and preferences ahead of time helps us provide a safe, happy, and stress-free experience. Please let us know if your pet has any medical needs, anxiety triggers, or special routines so we can accommodate them. With this information, we can tailor each day to your pet’s needs and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and safe. 🐾
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
