Pet care experience
I'm a lifelong dog owner and current foster fail, having adopted the two rescue pups that I had only intended to keep temporarily. That said, I understand unexpected developments and competing obligations that make it difficult to give your pups the love and attention you want to provide. I've been lucky to have great dog walkers and dog sitters over the past several years and want to return the favor. I'm especially excited to meet your pups because I'm required to give them back! I've cared for dogs across the life span and am comfortable administering medications. I also understand each pup has a unique hierarchy of needs that you know best as their companion and caretaker, and I'm flexible to make sure they're met (and hopefully exceeded with positive rewards such as praise and pets).
Reviews
Mary was an INCREDIBLE sitter for our dog and cat while we were away! She sent lots of text updates and photos. My dog seemed to enjoy her time with Mary and I will definitely be rebooking in the future!
We used Mary for our two very special and very old dogs and she did a fabulous job. We came home to happy dogs and a clean home. How much more can you ask for? She provided photos and frequent updates while we are gone. We felt at ease that our dogs were well cared and would recommend Mary to anyone looking for a dog sitter!
Mary was so patient with my 15 year old dog. She also fed my two cats. She had a hard time getting Lizzie to trust her, but Mary kept at it. She was kind enough to send me daily texts about her time with Lizzie. I'd use her again in a heartbeat!
Minnie is a very special dog, and like most protective parents, I don't trust her with just anyone! Mary was an absolute angel and has cared for Minnie over the years in my home as well as her own. Minnie is a difficult patient because she has to take meds orally for a thyroid problem, which makes me even more nervous to trust her with "strangers" but Mary is not a stranger at all. She's a very sweet and responsible young lady. I'd recommend her to anyone who needs good care for their pet(s)!

Skills
Information Mary K. would like to know about your pet
I'd like to know how they do around other people and pets, what makes them happy, and how they are best soothed if agitated. Also their preferred feeding and bathroom schedules.
A typical day
Happy to stick to the territory your pup is familiar with or seek out new trails. Couch cuddling and squeaky toys are also great wind downs.
