Pet care experience
I have had dogs in my life before I was potty trained and have never lived without them, until I went away to college. Growing up I was always responsible for walking and exercising them, training them, cleaning them, and taking care of any other needs they have. I have been the main trainer when we had puppies, from potty training to obedience to socializing training with other dogs.I have helped care for our dogs in their seniors years, whether that was giving them medicine or helping them with the help of a sling. I have dog sat and walked close friends’ dogs. I have attended multiple camps at animal shelters where I worked with training dogs who have never been trained before. Also have experience walking and socializing dogs who aren’t good with other dogs and I am comfortable knowing how to act in those situations. I am a huge dog person and no matter the dog I will love them as if they were my own:)!
Reviews
Would not recommend. Initially was fine, I did tell her she could leave for a few hours and put my dog in the crate if needed. She left for 4 hours, I was texting her and never got a response and when I finally did she said her phone died. I was annoyed, but understood that things happen. Then after she left for the night I looked at my ring camera and saw that when she came back from being out she brought two friends with her into my home. She did not ask me or mention this. When I called and asked her why she thought it was okay to bring people into my home she said “Oh we were hanging out and then I brought them back to the house with me and we hung with the dogs in the back yard”. So disrespectful and disappointing.
Mary was great with Izzy and Cody! She played with them and gave us pictures of them throughout her stay. She was very informative and very responsive. Thank you Mary!
This was our first time using Mary. She babysat my elderly Golden Retriever and my brothers two younger dogs. When Mary came to do a meet and greet prior to sitting, I could tell she was a dog lover, especially the way our dogs loved on her. I appreciated also how focused Mary was on listening to what she needed to do while we were gone. When I arrived home I could tell Mary took great care of our dogs. They were very happy! Thank you Mary we loved having you sit for us and will look to use you again next time.
Mary, Is excellent with all animals, but especially with dogs. She loves caring for, playing with, and walking dogs. She has a great disposition and the dogs know it and and love her for it.

At your home I would do whatever your dog, or pet, needs to feel relaxed and calm while you are away. As a owner of my own dogs I know how stressful it is leaving them. I would make sure they have all the food and water they need, while also ensuring they are comfortable with me in your absence.
Home
Information Mary C. would like to know about your pet
It would be great to know if your dog has a specific schedule it has to stay on, due to health reasons or any other reasons. It would be beneficial to me to know what care your dog needs and be ready to give it to them.
A typical day
Depending on what your dog/pet enjoys, that will be a factor in what activities I do with them. I love walking and hiking with dogs, and I especially love going to Rancho since it is a beautiful open space. Love throwing ball and playing with toys with dogs and if your pet enjoys that I will make sure to do it:)!

I’m currently a full-time college student, but I only have classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays so the rest of the week is open. I am on the women’s ultimate frisbee team and we travel occasionally for tournaments so some weekends I will be gone but that’s it! I would love to spend my free time taking care of your beloved pets :)!
