Availability
I now have a 9-5 job, which has made drop-ins unlikely, but I don’t typically more than 2-3 work days in a week. It’s very likely for me to have Thursday-Sunday completely off! I’m also in the position at work that should half days be necessary so your pet isn’t left alone too long, it may be negotiated with my employer. ❤️

About Mary J.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
When pet sitting (ie traveling to your house), I have often been asked to stay the night. I have no issue with this, nor if the pet likes sharing the bed. ❤️ I follow whatever their routine is to a T, and am willing to adjust my day to accommodate their schedule if need be. I am open to taking dogs on walks, administering medicine (as I’ve done for a couple cats with great success!) and even taking pets to the groomers!
Information Mary J. would like to know about your pet
I am very willing to take on any pets with medical issues or disabilities, whether they need medicine administered daily or are deaf (both of which I have experience with). All pets deserve the proper love and care, no matter what they may be struggling with. ❤️
A typical day
Fetch and tug of war are my go-to activities for the dogs! We’ll go on walks, explore nearby parks, and maybe even learn a trick or two! As for kitties, it’s always up to them. ❤️ Sitting and chilling or playing with toys, I follow their lead.

Pet care experience
Growing up, there was always an animal in my house. ❤️ I’ve experience with all sorts from dogs and cats to lizards and fish. I currently own a sweet 3-year old Boykin Spaniel who is the light of my life. I’ve pet sit for many people, whether it be daily visits or staying the night, and I’ve walked (so far) up to five dogs at once with no issue! I’m in shape and ready to walk and play with the most energetic of dogs, and I’m also down to chill out and relax with the shyest of kitties. 😁

Reviews

Professional, personable, flexible, attentive and just a great person. Cant say enough except book her!
Mary is wonderful pet caregiver and house sitter. Over the years Mary has taken care of both my cats and dog. She is reliable and follows all of your instructions including updates and pictures if you request them. You and your pet will not be very happy you scheduled her. Karen M
Mary E is simply the best! I never worry about my 5 pups when they are in her care. She is trustworthy and even filled in last minute for our 2-week trip. We have 3 older dogs and 2 puppies and she cared for all of their needs and walked them!....And that's a feat! I have known Mary E. and her family for 8+ years and would highly recommended her for sitting, walking, overnights, or anything you need.
Mary Elizabeth has watched out pets for the past five years. When we travel we often have our daughter's cats staying with us as well, creating three different sets of feeding / care requirements. Mary Elizabeth handles of our pets with love and kindness. We never come home to messy litter boxes or any kind of mess around the house. Without our asking, she keeps in touch giving us updates on our cats. She is completely trustworthy and will always be the first person we reach out to when we need a pet sitter.
