Cozy + Loving Getaway for Pups!
Pet care experience
Hi! I have 5 years of professional dog walking, sitting, and boarding experience, plus two years of working at an animal shelter. I'm currently working as a freelance photographer so I have lot of flexibility throughout the day to care for your pup. I am responsive to dogs' needs, wants, stresses, and feelings. I have experience with rescue dogs -- generally no problems accommodating dogs with anxiety, medication, or other issues. Growing up, I learned that dogs are part of the family, so you can expect that I will treat your pupper like a valued family member. I have a lot of patience and understanding for animals and genuinely enjoy hanging out with and caring for them. I can adjust to your dog's activity level. I can walk for miles and play fetch til sundown, but if your dog prefers a more sedentary life snuggling & playing Zelda-- I can accommodate that as well! ;)
Reviews
As always, Mary took excellent care of Roxy, even now that there are various medications to manage. We're so happy to leave our pup with her, knowing she'll be looked after so well!
Mary has been an excellent dogsitter. We have really appreciated how reliable she is and how well she takes care of Roxy for us!
Roxy had a wonderful time during the nine days we were out of town. I got lots of updates and cute pictures. I’ll definitely look to rebook with Mary!
Our dog had a great time and was very well taken care of. We got regular updates and were very confident she was getting along well. Detail oriented but low stress, just as i like it!

Information Mary Rose H. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if your dog shows aggression towards other humans or animals. I also would love to know your dog's favorite games and activities-- happy to accommodate their lifestyle!
A typical day
I live within walking distance of several parks and beaches, so most likely we will go on adventures every day! If your pup is a senior or lower energy, they can cozy up on the couch with their favorite toy.
