Pet care experience

My love is their love.

A dog is never too big/small for me to handle. I’ve helped with potty training, grooming, walking, playing and have so much love for all my past dogs I’ve watched. My dogs will happily help to play and make your puppy feel more at home! I have a fenced in yard to let them run around. Your dog is a priority to keep safe and well cared for! I will treat it as my own and show it just as much love as the next one! No dog will leave sad except for them wanting to come back and see me again. It’s my pleasure! My family and I will make sure your pet is well taken care of and gets potty breaks within 4 hrs. There will be lots of love and attention! I have a fenced in yard with runners for those that may try to jump the fence. I do have an extra crate if needed, and there's plenty of love from family and pets to help keep your pets comfortable!

Mary Kate takes exceptional care of my dog Addie. Addie is treated like one of the family and loves when she gets to stay at Mary Kate's. Seeing how happy my Addie is to go to Mary Kate's makes me relieved that I am leaving where she is safe.

BEWARE!!!!!! TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE. If zero stars was an option, that's what I would choose. DO NOT believe the crap she writes in her bio. Her doublewide is a dump, reeks of cat pee, and the animals are NOT well cared for. When I got there, I had a feeling that I should have turned around and left and God I wish I had. Upon walking in the house, all I could smell was cat pee. The floors were ripped apart, there were chunks of who knows what on the floor (I thought maybe it was just a toy, so I never minded it), there was stuff everywhere on the counters, and there was a little boy sitting on the couch holding a tiny shivering chihuahua. When asked what was wrong with it, she said 'Oh, he got trampled.' Ummm, WHAT? This was her own dog (one of five, she should't be allowed to own any!!). My dog is 70lbs, so his getting trampled wasn't a concern for me. He seemed to like her and didn't seem guarded, so that gave me a bit of comfort (dogs are usually a good judge of character, right?). With my dog, I sent the following: crate, memory foam bed, blanket, 3 types of treats, 10 cups of food (enough for all 5 required feedings-2 cups twice a day), a brand new toy, meds (5 chewables, 1 chew twice per day), harness, leash. When I picked up my dog, his leash was completely chewed through, an entire corner of his bed was completely chewed off, the bag in which I put all of his things was chewed through in multiple places, his new toy had never been given to him, none of his treats had been given to him, 8/10 cups of his food were STILL IN the ziplock bag (NEVER fed to him), NONE OF HIS MEDS WERE GIVEN TO HIM, his entire belly, chest, and legs were COVERED in a rash, scratches, red marks, and bloody spots. When I got him home, he drank an entire large metal bowl of water; it was as if he hadn't any all weekend-which wouldn't surprise me, since he didn't received hardly any of his food either! DO NOT LET THIS PERSON WATCH YOUR DOG!!!!! She is NOT equipped. She does NOT watch your dog. She it NOT responsible. She DOES NOT CARE!!!!!!

Mary Kate was great with our very old and disabled dog. Max came home healthy and clean! We will use her again, especially with her taking him on pretty short notice. Thanks so much!

Mary Kate was so nice as to send me a couple pupdates while Comet stayed with her for a week! This was my first time away so I was so worried. She even put his dog bed near her bed because he’s used to sleeping next to me! She got him outside and around other dogs and he seemed to be having a great time in the photos she sent! So glad she treated him like family!
