Safety, trust & environment

I am available on a case by case basis for overnight sits in my home. Currently, I don’t have a dog or a cat which gives me flexibility. My yard is not fenced, I walk all dogs on the leash. I take the lead/instructions from the owners. I suggest we all meet before any service and if needed we meet a few times in order for the pet and parents to feel safe and comfortable.

Pet Loving Mom and RN

Pet care experience

As a retired Registered Nurse and a caretaker for my senior dog, I am comfortable with senior dogs, meds, general assessments and caring for special needs dogs and cats. As a country mom of four children, we had two horses, chickens, four rabbits, three cats and at times snakes and salamanders under my kids’ bed...without knowing…at any time, any of these critters if not already in our house, could be in our house! My longest sit was three months as a ranch sitter in Colorado, I cared for two horses, two donkeys, chickens, three sheep, two lambs, a cat and dog. Currently, I sit locally for friends and family…walks, day care and overnights.

Mary Kate was amazing with our three dogs! She was incredibly communicative, easygoing, and kept us updated throughout our time away. Our senior dog did very well in her care, and Mary Kate made sure she ate, which gave us great peace of mind. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and will definitely book with Marykate again the next time we're out of town!

It was such a pleasure meeting and working with Mary Kate! She was wonderful with Sunny and Tilly. She is incredibly personable and clearly loves dogs. They loved her, too! Thank you, Mary Kate!
