As Always, Mary and Marlo are wonderful dog sitters. They show so much love, kindness, and care to our little Bentley. They always keep us updated with Pictures and written posts. If they have any questions, they don’t hesitate to ask. If they notice anything seems off, they will communicate right away. We’re always calm and worry free while away from our dog because we 100% know that he’s in great hands. Mary and Marlo are AWESOME!!! 1,000% recommend!

Super kind and friendly. Made sure to keep me constantly updated on how my dog was doing, took him for walks and took excellent care of him. Sadly I think he was more upset for me to pick him up than he was when I dropped him off

I had such a great experience leaving Sadie with her! This was Sadie’s first time ever staying overnight at someone else’s home, so I was definitely a little nervous, but she made me feel completely at ease. She sent me tons of photos and videos throughout Sadie’s stay, which I really appreciated. She also took her outside frequently and gave her so much attention and affection. Sadie is a very people-oriented dog who loves to stay close to someone, and from all the updates I received, it was clear that she was getting plenty of cuddles and love 🥰.

I cannot recommend Mary and her husband enough! My dog, Molly, had an absolutely fantastic time staying with them. I loved getting the picture updates throughout the day—they truly made me smile every single time and gave me total peace of mind. They went above and beyond in every way to make sure Molly was happy and comfortable. I will definitely use them again in the future whenever Molly needs a cozy place to stay! :)

Mary took excellent care of our Westie. We received many updates and pictures, and our dog looked very content. We will be sure to rebook in the future!
