Retired from animal welfare career.

Pet care experience

Raised as a dairy farm kid, eventually entered and recently retired from an animal welfare career. I live with a friendly cat and small dog. My experience personal and professional life has prepared me for the pros and cons of basically all domestic pets and many wild animals and exotics.

Mary did such a great job caring for our golden doodle. She sent updates and was so flexible with our schedule. We have used her 2 times and hope to have her watch our dog again in the future

Mary was THE best!! I had a sitter cancel last minute and she came through for me. Not only did my pup love Mary, he loved Duncan as well. Mary’s excellent with anxious dogs. Can’t recommend her enough. Thank you Mary!

WOW! If anyone ever has to board their fur babies I highly recommend Rover with Mary Kay! This is the first time I have ever had to board my 2 Dachshunds AKA wieners! Sally who is 4 years old & Charlie who is just one year old. I have to admit I was extremely nervous. As I have never used this before. Not for long though! They sent short videos & pictures. It was easy to see how comfortable & happy they both were! I don’t think they missed me at all! I was able to relax & enjoy my vacation because I knew my fur babies were well taken care of!
