I am so excited to be able to start caring for more pups now that I have a remote job working from home. I’m able to ensure the pups have interaction, love, and have their bio needs met on a regular schedule. I also have experience with high maintenance pups who might need a little more physical care or medication.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in an end unit townhouse with a small fenced yard. We recently had it converted to natural cedar chips which are low maintenance and extremely dog friendly. The first pup we had here absolutely loved playing and rolling in the yard! My neighborhood is also very walkable and I make sure to take pups out on at least 2 walks daily. My husband and I don’t have any dogs of our own yet, but he also loves when we have pups come visit us on their vacations :)

Information Mary G. would like to know about your pet
I will ask what your dog’s typical sleeping arrangements are. We don’t allow pups in our people-bed, so it is preferable if your dog has their own bed/crate or that they are happy lounging on our couch! I am able and willing to provide any care your pup needs whether it be medication, physical restrictions, or whatever will make the Dog-mom and dog-dad feel comfortable!
A typical day
Pups under my care will experience so much fun and love — walkies, fetch and tug in the backyard, mental stimulation with treat puzzles, a comfy place to nap, and any specialized care they need! I will gladly send frequent updates with pictures/videos of our time together!

Pet care experience
Caring for a dog is a privilege that brings me great joy! From my own dogs in my childhood home, to a friend/family member’s pup staying with me for a week, and even a foster that I have until their adoption — I ensure every dog in my care feels loved, happy, and safe. I’ve worked with shy foster pups that need space and time to decompress to energetic, athletic dogs who need lots of play and stimulation. I even have a good friend who has trusted me to care for her Guide Dog on several occasions. I treat every dog with individualized attention based on their needs and your preferences.
Reviews
Mary is excellent and always our first choice to watch our dogs! She’s so kind and takes care of them very well.
Amazing dog sitter! We left our girl with her for eight days. I highly recommend Mary for anyone that needs special accommodations for any of your pets. She went above and beyond with daily updates and pictures. Thank you, Mary
Mary is amazing! My dog is so happy with her and she treats him like he's her own. She's very communicative, sharing daily updates with photos and videos, and meets all his needs and then some.
Mary is amazing! Our fur babies were so happy and relaxed when we picked them up. We loved getting all the pictures and videos during their stay. One of our puppies is a rescue and struggles adjusting to change but Mary kept us updated and was so helpful to make sure she adjusted during their stay. Thank you for taking such great care of our babies and making their stay comfy, fun and relaxing!
