Our yard is unfenced, but I will provide lots of potty breaks. I do have a lead in the backyard if your dog is comfortable going on it. We live in a great walking neighborhood and I enjoy getting outside for several walks a day.

Information Mary &. would like to know about your pet

If we have not hosted your dog before, please let me know how long your dog can be left alone, if they need to be crated, and if they are good with kids or not. Again, I provide a family environment for pet sitting so it’s crucial that they get along with the family!

A typical day

Your dog will get lots of interaction from my family. We will treat your dog just as our own! Dogs are allowed in all rooms in the house and on furniture/beds. The dogs will go on walks to/from the school bus stop daily, and in the summer months will typically be outside as we spend a lot of time outdoors. I have feeding dishes, chew toys, and a doggie bed. If your dog has a special toy or bed that they prefer, feel free to bring it.

Pet care experience

Hi, we are a family of 5 and pet loving household. We have been watching pets on Rover for a little over a year now and LOVE it! This has been such a positive experience and we absolutely love having the pets around. We have raised many dogs over the years and have lots of experience with all breeds, small to big. We will only watch pets from one family at a time and your pet will be treated like our own. Our family loves animals and the companionship they bring :)

Mary and her familiy took very good care of our dog Milo. He was well attended too. Mary was very accommodating as we were out of country providing pictures and updates on Milo. I would highly recommend her as sitter.

Mary and her family were great hosts for Marge. Very communicative and sent the perfect amount of updates - including some sweet pictures of walks and lots of snuggles!

So grateful to have booked with Mary and her family for the holidays. Faith made herself right at home and got the best of care. Mary was very attentive to Faith's quirks and needs; I was never concerned over how our dog was doing and knew she was in good hands.
