Pet care experience

I’ll give your pets the same love I

I love dogs and cats. I have had dogs for the last 40 years and cats for 20 years. I currently have two senior dogs who are the joy of my life. Friends tell me that my dogs won the lottery when they came to live with me because I provide them with such great care. I will provide your dogs with the same great care of long walks, petting, and positive reinforcement that I give my dogs. I have a lot of experience working with dogs of all sizes and different breeds. I have provided dog walking, dog sitting, training and boarding services for the last two years. During that time period, I have given 375 dog walks and walked over 200 miles. I have over 50 repeat clients and am the preferred walker for over 50 pet parents. Pet parents routinely say that I go "above and beyond" to care for their pets. For example, I have walked dogs longer than scheduled when the dog has not fully relieved himself during the scheduled time period. I tried for 45 minutes on a couple of occasions to troubleshoot with a pet parent in order to gain access to the pet when the pet parent's key or code did not work. I always make sure the pet has plenty of water before I leave. I have given dirty dogs baths and have reached into a dog's mouth to pull out a bone it found on the ground. I believe that dogs not only need exercise and time to relieve themselves on walks but that they also need to satisfy their canine natures by taking time to sniff and explore their surroundings. I will provide your pet with that space.

Many thanks to Mary for taking care of my two kitties, dealing with street parking, and being flexible with the days so everyone is taken care of! It’s hard to make long term arrangements in the holiday season but she made it happen!

Mary was very descriptive on her walk with our pups. We really appreciated her watching them. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone!

Mary was fantastic! Meet up was easy, she took plenty of photos and videos of Miso. It also sounds like Miso had some digestive and barking issues during her stay, but Mary handled it all with such positivity. I would highly recommend Mary and hope she’ll watch Miso again in the future.

I've used Mary twice to take care of Bailey....and both times the experience was awesome. She is kind, responsive and communicative. Bailey always comes back happy and I know she is well taken care of. Will def call Mary again!

Safety, trust & environment

If I walk your dog or care for other pets in your home, I will follow your instructions. I will also make sure your pets have plenty of water before I leave and that your home and pets are secure. If your dog stays with me, I live in a spacious one-bedroom apartment. There is a wonderful walking path great for dog walking along the bay directly across from my apartment complex. A dog park that has both small and large dog sections is just a mile and a half up the road. Your dog will get plenty of attention and exercise.
