Availability

I currently work from home so I am available to supervise pets full time in my apartment. I typically work from 8-4, but can take frequent breaks for feedings, potty breaks, play time and anything else your pet may need. I do go to the gym in the afternoons, but I am away from home for a max of an hour and the gym is right in front of my community within walking distance if needed to get back home quickly. I am available for weekday and weekend boarding as my schedule does not change often, so your pet will have my full attention while they are at my home. I am surrounded by nature and am also close to several trails if your pet likes longer walks. I live in a pet friendly community and also have access to a community dog park that we can easily visit if you like. Pets are allowed on my furniture and I am a big fan of all snuggles.

Mary G.'s Neighborhood

Dog lover for full time supervision

Pet care experience

Lifelong experience with dogs. Growing up I have owned both lab and pitbull type dogs, but that is just my personal ownership. I have cared for puppies and older dogs, and have cared for all my dogs into their senior 14 plus years. Friends and family have used me as their most regular dog sitter for their loved ones. I've ranged in babysitting dogs from a larger size like boxer, lab, pitbull, goldendoodles, to as small as bichon frise, pugs and French bulldogs. I work from home the majority of my days so when I am sitting dogs are always supervised by me and have my full attention. I live near a nature reserve so I enjoy taking pets on long (or short) walks around the neighborhood and we also have a community dog park if you enjoy letting your pets play there. I really just enjoy dogs of all ages and sizes and am honored to be so trusted watching people's loved pets.

Mary took care of my senior boy and sent pictures and updates regularly. Highly recommend for a quiet and safe stay for your pup!

Mary is my go-to person for pet sitting because I know my pups are always in loving and responsible hands. I’m very particular about who I trust with my pets, and Mary consistently goes above and beyond. She sends daily updates and pictures, which gives me so much peace of mind while I’m away. She truly treats my dogs like her own, and they absolutely adore her — they even seem sad when it’s time for her to leave! Mary is the only person I fully trust to care for my pups, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter.

I have two dogs, a Pitbull and a small bichon mix. Mary has watched them for me multiple times, both for short 1-2 day periods and also for up to a few weeks at a time. My pittie is sometimes nervous around new people and she doesn’t do well around other dogs. She took to Mary immediately and is always SO excited to see her. Mary knows her habits and always keeps them both comfortable, taking extra care when walking them. She is great at communication and sends pictures as well. I would highly recommend Mary to everyone!
