Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors to be mindful of. If a meet and greet is needed beforehand I am happy to accommodate.

Pet care experience

As your pet sitter, I am not just watching your animals; I am getting to know them. From their routines to their quirks, I care for every dog and cat like they’re my own, so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have been housesitting and caring for other people's pets for over a decade. As a pet parent myself, I also know that clear communication and photo updates are a must so that you can feel confident and relaxed while you are away that your babies are being well taken care of.

Mary was great! We were unexpectedly completely out of service and our doggos were happy and healthy when we returned ❤️

Mary was great with our cats. Very nice and patient with our shy boys and they warmed up to her quickly, which is unusual for them. Thanks so much!

Mary has been absolutely wonderful with both of my pets. She took excellent care of my cat Cleo, including giving her medication carefully and consistently, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Cleo can be particular about people, but she quickly became comfortable with Mary’s calm and caring nature. Mary also went above and beyond with my reactive dog, Ella. She was incredibly patient, thoughtful, and attentive while building trust with her. It was clear that Mary truly understood how to work with reactive dogs in a gentle and confident way. Before long, Ella was happily going on walks with her and felt safe in her care. I would wholeheartedly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate, and knowledgeable pet sitter. She treated my pets like her own, and I’m so grateful for the care she provided.

Mary did a fantastic job taking care of my labradoodle, Townes. From the moment they met, it was clear she has a natural way with dogs. Townes instantly felt comfortable and happy around her. She was attentive, reliable, and went above and beyond to keep me updated with photos and little notes about their time together. I came home to a relaxed, well-exercised pup each time she has watched him. It’s such a relief knowing Townes is in good hands with someone who genuinely cares. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Mary watch him again and highly recommend her to any pet owner.
