Pet care experience
Hello! I'm a part-time grad student/therapist living in South Philly. I have personal experience caring for small, medium, and large dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters and axolotls. I'm open to caring for other pets as well (i.e., reptiles, amphibians, fish, etc.). I'm available for dog walks, house sitting, and drop-in visits. My availability varies, but I'm almost always available on the weekends for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, while weekdays I'm more likely available for only dog walking and drop-in visits. I'm a very punctual, responsible, and trustworthy person. I'd be sure to keep you updated (as much as you'd like me to) on how your fur-baby is doing! Most importantly, I will always give your pet all the love & care they deserve! :)
Reviews
Mary Kate was easy to work with, responsive and communicative. Thanks for walking my pup!
🙌🏻 Absolutely amazing! Total sweetheart!
MK is super! Very flexible with my changing schedule and my dog loves her!
Mary-Kate was great with my dog Cookie! He can be pretty anxious around new people but he seems to love her. She is very communicative and offers meet and greets before starting services. Would trust her again for both my dog and cat!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
It's all about the pet! If they are in a playful mood at their home, then I'm bringing out their favorite toys. If they need a walk, I'll take them on their usual route and provide poop bags and treats (if necessary). If they need space to chill on their own after a walk or playtime, then I'll leave them be while keeping them safe.
Information Mary-Kate F. would like to know about your pet
Before a walk, I would like to know about the dog's behaviors with new people and with other dogs and animals. I would also like to know about how they are on a leash.
A typical day
For a typical day, it really just depends on the dog and the neighborhood, but I love walking through parks! I do like to keep the route the same for a dog with any anxiety just so I don't throw them off their routine.

Availability
Right now I’m only available on weekends, but feel free to reach out on a weekday anyway. I sometimes have cancellations with clients at work, so you never know!
