Pet care experience

Taking care of your furry friends!

I grew up surrounded by dogs, including my family's two adorable King Charles Spaniels, which sparked my lifelong love for animals. Because my own pups were prone to health issues, I am incredibly patient and experienced in administering medication and providing attentive care. I dog-sit for friends and family, managing everything from feeding schedules to playtime. I regularly visit the Orange County Animal Shelter to take shelter dogs out through their Dog’s Day Out program, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Whether your pup needs a high-energy playdate, a patient hand for medication, or just some quality couch cuddles, I’m excited to welcome them with open arms!

Mary took great care of all our babies (2 dogs and 3 kittens). She was punctual, reliable, and easy to communicate with. Thank you!

Mary was great! Great communication and cared for my two cats very well. Spent time with them on every visit and made sure I felt comfortable with her care for them! Will ask for her help again for sure.

Mary was lovely to work with! She was responsive, able to visit my dog Dakota on short notice, and took her for a walk on her favorite path through the neighborhood. :-) I would definitely recommend Mary to anyone who wants their pet to be well cared for!

I had to leave my senior dog home for a couple weeks while I was out of town, entrusting her to Mary Grace. She went above and beyond caring for my Emma!! Mary Grace made sure my dog was walked, fed, and loved everyday while I was away, keeping me in the loop the whole time. I highly recommend her!!
