My wife and I have had the pleasure of working with Mary more than a dozen times now. We have two golden retriever lab mutts that are full of energy and when we leave town for work (generally 2-5 day trips) we can count on Mary to take care of them! Mary is very conscientious, hard-working, responsible and fun! Our girl dog tends to ‘protest our absence by going on hunger strikes’ and Mary makes sure that she feels safe and eats. Her attention to detail is so appreciated – she gives us updates and keeps our dogs on a routine while we are gone. And of course the love – we can tell how much our dogs love Mary by their reaction when she comes over to dog-sit! Trust is a huge thing for us; we are often out-of-state when we travel and it provides us peace-of-mind knowing Mary is there with our dogs. I can’t say enough great things about her!
