My Happy Place is with Fur Babies
Pet care experience
I LOVE DOGS! I LOVE to WALK! MOST of ALL, I LOVE to WALK 'WITH' DOGS❤️ I have 28 years of experience with dogs. As a current owner of a 4 1/2 year-old American Staffordshire, a former owner of a 'shy' Shepherd/Akita mix, a former owner of an 'escape artist' English Pointer mix, and lots of experience with al other types of breeds, I am very comfortable with dog personalities that include shyness, mild aggressiveness, and unpredictability on walks. I have been on hundreds of walks, runs, and hikes with my fur babies building on each experience and I look forward to many more with your's. I have volunteered at a no-kill, non-profit animal shelter training basic skills and walking many different fur babies. COMMITMENT: Exercise and Safety go hand in hand and I am committed to providing your fur baby with a fun and safe walk (or run). While in my care, 'your' baby will be given my undivided attention. I will love him/her as I have loved my own. SPECIAL SKILLS: I have experience and am comfortable in giving oral medications. I also have experience and am comfortable with walking all age dogs both small and large. AVAILABILITY: I am available Sunday - Saturday unless my calendar reflects otherwise.
Reviews
Mary does an excellent job with my dog. She is very caring and tends to her needs. I appreciate her very much
Mary did such a wonderful job with our puppy! You can tell at the meet and greet that she is a true dog lover!! While she dropped by, she took a ton of pictures to share with us. Would 100% trust her again with our dog!
Thanks Mary, I can tell from the pics that my dogs love hanging out with you!
Thanks so much Mary! From the pictures I can tell they loved spending time with you.

Safety, trust & environment
Your fur baby will be my number one priority. Safety and lots of love and attention will always be my focus when I’m with your baby.
Information Mary K. would like to know about your pet
Things important for me to be aware of before the scheduled walk or run: Any medical issues that I should be aware of? Any limitations (IE. slow vs. fast walk, no run)? Any shy/aggressive behavior I should be aware of (IE. is your dog unpredictable around other animals, children, or people in general)? Food allergies? Anything else that I need to know that would possibly jeopardize your dog's safety or the safety of others?
A typical day
Walks will typically be done in the owner's neighborhood. Playtime for drop-in visits can include fetch, running, basic training (sit, down, stay, come, roll-over), and lots of love.

Availability
Incorporating pet care into my daily/weekly life is like having a favorite topping on ice cream. I will be available daily unless my calendar displays otherwise.
