Pet care experience

I LOVE pups - more than humans!

Hello! I am a doctor who quit residency but is still trying to find a way to take care of people. I LOVE dogs -- I've owned, rescued, and fostered a variety of dogs. I am comfortable taking care of older dogs, special needs dogs, and even administering medications. I also work as a private tutor so my schedule is quite flexible. My ideal day with your pet would be morning snuggles, followed soon there after by a morning walk and breakfast. We would then snuggle some more on the couch with coffee before our afternoon hike on one of the local amazing trails. If we get too messy happy to give your pup a bath. Then I imagine we enjoy dinner together followed by more snuggles if needed.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live with my friend, her pre-teen child, and their 1 year old gentle giant of a dog named Harley. We have an enclosed back yard for dogs to play, however I often walk them in the arcata community forest as we live walking distance.

Doggy Day Care • May 25, 2026

Mary was great! She was able to take our last minute booking and patiently worked with introducing our anxious dog to hers. She even kindly let our toddler chat with her about everything toddlers chat about (bugs he saw, how he likes the beach and halloween, letters, Spiderman, etc.) when he wanted to come pick up his pup and say hello.

Boarding • Jun 17, 2024

Mary & Michael were amazing for our standard poodle Bernard’s first experience with Rover! They gave consistent updates and their dog Chana was a great playmate for Bernard. When our flight was delayed many hours, they were flexible with pickup. Couldn’t be happier with our experience!

Mary is phenomenal! My dog is anxious and very wary of new people. Mary was gentle and open with him and was extremely patient with both my pup and my many concerns. My dog loves her and she sent lots of updates. She truly goes above and beyond as a sitter!

I'm very friendly and excited to meet your dog! I am pretty active and like to know as early as possible your dog's needs and quirks. I think safety is paramount and knowing your pet well helps create a good environment for everyone.
