Responsible, animal lover!
Pet care experience
Hi! I am so excited to be considered to take care of your pet(s)! I have a lifetime of experience (literally) with animals! I grew up on a farm where we had dogs, cats, horses, ducks, geese, and a variety of other farm animals. By the time I was 11, I was responsible for many of the necessary care needed for these animals. I was also the president of a local 4-H club which is an agriculture-based club that provides classes on topics such as animal care. I participated in the club for over 7 years and was able to take classes of dog care, cat care, and in addition to others. Since then, I have had both personal and professional experience with dog sitting and cat sitting for a variety of families. I am familiar and comfortable with a variety of breeds and temperaments. I am energetic, active, responsible, and have a lot of love to give your pet(s)! I take the privilege of taking care of part of your family very seriously and I hope you feel that I would be a good fit! I look forward to hearing from you!
Reviews
My dogs were so happy when Mary was watching them. It was so nice to receive pictures of their sweet puppy smiles so I knew they were well taken care of and enjoying themselves.
Mary is amazing! She is extremely trustworthy and great with animals. Even my normally shy cat took to her immediately. Mary sent us lots of pictures while we were away and even offered to bring in mail and packages. I highly recommend Mary!
Well you won’t find a more reliable or loving sitter or walker for your fur baby, that’s for sure. I have trusted her with my two (rather high maintenance) doggies on countless occasions and have never had to think twice about it. This includes special needs a few times for medications and even crate rest for a dog’s back injury... she handed it all with care and ease. As a bonus, Mary has a natural knack for understand K9 behavior, tuning into their needs better than I can on many occasions. Do yourself a favor and message her already- then relax :)
So Mary watched Guinness and O'Honey for pretty much two years with an unmatched devotion and care. She loves animals and they love her. Can not recommend her enough, and simply put your pups will be kind of sad to leave her. As they said in A Christmas Story...A++++++++++++

I have a small, fenced-in front yard and live in a very walkable area! I am happy to take them to dog parks, if that's appropriate for your pet, or take them for long walks along the beach front or around the neighborhood.
Home
Information Mary K. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know their temperament and how they react to other dogs. Other than that, I am very open to all breeds. I have a very friendly English shepherd and he has never met an animal or human he doesn't want to make his best friend. I am happy to take on another dog or animal in our home but would love to schedule a little meet-up first!
A typical day
I live in a quiet neighborhood that has many, well-maintained sidewalks perfect for long dog walks. I also live very close to the Huntington dog beach and a local dog park and, with your permission, would be happy to take field trips those areas were they would be able to run and get some exercise. I also am happy to send photo and video updates while you're away so you are always in the loop!
