Availability
Currently I work in hybrid position. I am flexible most days with at least 7-day advanced notice from the start of service. I do accept services under that time frame but will not be able to provide as much flexibility. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take pride in creating individualized care plans that honor each animal’s personality, needs, and routine.

About Mary Kate M.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
My goal is simple: to provide the same level of love, attention, and care that I would want for my own pet. I believe quality pet care should be accessible and affordable, and I work closely with each family to ensure both pets and owners feel completely comfortable with our arrangement. When you choose me as your pet sitter, you’re not just hiring a service – you’re welcoming someone who genuinely understands the irreplaceable role pets play in our lives and who will treat your furry family member with the love and respect they deserve.

Information Mary Kate M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of. Be sure to have your Rover profile updated with the most relevant information. A few questions: How do your pets like to be rewarded? Is your dog reactive to other dogs? Do they have any training or know any commands? Do they enjoy car rides?

Reliable & Passionate Pet Caretaker
Pet care experience
As a devoted pet parent, I said goodbye to my cherished 16-year-old Terrier Pitbull mix, Maple, in 2025. While I heal from this loss, I find comfort in sharing my love with other pets — I know firsthand how precious these family members are. In March 2026 I adopted 2 female Shepskies from Heart of Infinity Rescue. They're both super social and love playing with dogs of all sizes, so if your pup is well-socialized, they'd have a great playmate boarding with me! Dog training is a big passion of mine. I've spent a lot of time training my own dogs — obedience, tricks, separation anxiety, fearful behavior, all of it. I'm currently working through a course with the Karen Pryor Academy and have met with tons of trainers along the way. That experience carries over into every stay, so your dog is in good hands. All services require a meet and greet at least 48 hours before service.
Reviews

Mary Kate watched my dog, Khalifa for the first time and she exceeded my expectations. She kept me updated throughout, which made it so easy to relax knowing Khalifa was in good hands. It's clear she really cares about the animals she watches. I'd recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a reliable, communicative dog sitter — we'll be back!

This was our second time leaving our dog, Bruce, with Mary Kate. Both times she has gone above and beyond. She sent amazing pictures and I know Bruce felt very comfortable with her!



This was the first time I had ever had to find a dog sitter. I was pretty nervous as my 3 pups can be a lot of work. Mary Kate went above and beyond! She sent me photos and kept me updated! She spent a significant amount of time playing with my pups and taking them on extra long walks! I can’t say enough how grateful I was to know they were in good hands!

Mary Kate went above and beyond when watching our dog at her house. Our dog is a new rescue who has only been with us for 4 months. He has also been undergoing heartworm treatment. Mary Kate made every accommodation necessary for him and had so much patience. She even put in some hard work training our pup during his stay! I absolutely trust her and would highly recommend her to anyone!
