My life revolves around my pets. I am on a strict feeding schedule that the cats never let me miss, and the dogs require so much activity in the yard and rides in the car to experience the world. I don't make a decision without their well-being involved.

About Mary D.

Safety, trust & environment

My cats are on a strict diet and I stick to it. My dogs know how to tell me when they need to go outside, whether on a leash or in a fenced in backyard. I listen carefully to the animal's needs and follow strict schedules and rules from pet owners. Meds, diets, activity, sun exposure all differs from cat to dog and I take note of the specifications.

Information Mary D. would like to know about your pet

If your pet has any activity requirements, please let me know. For instance, my shepherd mix has hip dysplasia so he requires a lot of exercise (walks!) to keep his weight down. My boxer mix needs a bit more rest because he’s on three legs and they tire easily.

A typical day

I love stimulating walks and indoor playtime (especially in the Nashville HOT summers). I have two high energy dogs and I always make sure they have what they need- full water bowls, potty breaks, and even rain jackets for the rainy weather because my boxer mix swears he’s allergic to the rain!

Pet care experience

I grew up in a home with a big furry dog brother and two cats. I have always leaned more on the animal lover side than anything else, and now I have four of my own (two dogs, two cats, all spoiled and loved).

Mary Claire certainly has such a huge heart for animals and I would trust her with mine in a heart beat. She has animals of her own that I see her love on daily and she even adopted rescues! She’s someone I think of immediately when I hear or see any animal commercial and animal merchandise and has always had animals in her care!

Mary Claire did such a great job with my cat! Charlie can be very particular & Mary Claire was able to make her feel comfortable while I was gone. She was very good about sending updates, which made me feel comfortable as well. I’ll definitely be using her again!

Mary Claire is a girl with an animal lover’s heart! She has watched our animals many times, including our dogs, cat, and axolotl. As an animal owner herself, she has years of experience of pet watching under her belt, combined with all the compassion you could ask for. She is prompt and trustworthy. Highly recommend!

Mary Claire is basically a Disney princess in disguise! Animals instantly adore her. She is incredibly responsible and patient, giving pet parents total peace of mind. Your fur-baby will be completely spoiled with fun adventures, endless cuddles, and unmatched care!
