Mary-frances was great with communication and made our dog, Gigi, very comfortable and relaxed during her stay, sharing photos throughout.

Boarding • Apr 20, 2026

Mary-Frances has been an absolute gem every time she’s watched Paprika, and this most recent overnight stay was no exception. It’s such a relief knowing Paprika is in caring, capable hands—especially overnight—and Mary-Frances goes above and beyond to make sure she’s comfortable, safe, and happy. She’s reliable, communicative, and clearly has a natural connection with dogs. Paprika always comes back well cared for, which says everything. I fully trust Mary-Frances and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a thoughtful, attentive sitter. We’re so lucky to have found her!

Mary-Frances took such good care of our little pup, Paprika! Paprika had so much fun going on walks and playing while we were away. Mary-Frances is communicative and gives us updates throughout the whole stay. I would recommend her to anyone!!

Doggy Day Care • Feb 05, 2026

Mary-Frances took such good care of our pup, Paprika! This was Paprika’s first time staying with someone outside of family and Mary-Frances made her feel right at home. She also gave me updates throughout the day which made us feel at ease leaving Paprika for the first time! Paprika had a fun-filled day of walks and playtime. She didn’t want to leave when we picked her up 😆 I would recommend Mary-Frances to anyone and can’t wait to have her watch our pup again.

House Sitting • Sep 20, 2025

We were beyond impressed with Mary! Had her stay with our two dogs for a few days and she definitely exceeded our expectations. She went out of her way to keep us informed of their adventures and sent photo updates which was appreciated. We came home to a sparkling clean apartment and two very happy dogs. One of our dogs is deaf, needs daily medication, and sometimes needs a little extra patience . I felt completely comfortable leaving him with Mary, as she has the experience and confidence to understand his special needs. We will absolutely be using Mary again - I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing dog sitter!!!
