Dog Lover (working part-time)!

Hi there! My name is Mary and I'm a lifelong dog lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pups of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. Fun fact—my very first job was walking dogs around my neighborhood! From the start, I knew working with animals would always be part of my life. I currently have a sweet and spunky 10-year-old Cavalier King Charles mix who keeps me on my toes—and on the couch for cuddles as well! I also grew up with lovable labs and helped raise my sister’s energetic Cavapoo, so I’m no stranger to high-energy dogs, senior pups, or those who need a little extra TLC. During the school year, I work as a middle school Language Arts teacher, but my summer schedule is wide open—perfect for giving your dog the attention, playtime, and care they deserve. Whether your pup loves long walks, belly rubs, or just some calm companionship, I’m happy to match their vibe. I’d love to meet your furry friend and make sure they feel right at home while you’re away!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in backyard with plenty of room to play fetch, plus a little doggo who loves to play and snuggle, so your pup will have plenty of love and attention. :)

We are so happy Mary could watch our fur baby! She was excellent at communication, sent daily photos and updates, and was very warm and welcoming. We completely trusted her and her sweet boy, Finn, to give Daisy the best care. Will book again!

I don’t even know where to begin, finding Mary to watch our little Finnegan was such a blessing! After meeting Mary, and her dog Finn, we knew it was the perfect fit.

Mary was AWESOME! I knew Ozy was well taken care of and she responded quickly when I messaged her. Hopefully Ozy will be able to hang out with her and Finn soon! I highly recommend.

She treated my dogs just like her own and I could tell my dogs were extremely happy and comfortable staying the week with her!

Mary was great! Extremely friendly, very fast response times, and Gordo clearly enjoyed the company of Mary and her pup Finn! Would definitely recommend. Thanks Mary!

Mary has always been great with dogs ever since she was a kid. She had a dog walking business in middle school and was responsible for several dogs several times a week. She also has grown up with dogs since she was in elementary school and now has her own dog, Finn, that she loves and takes wonderful care of. She has even taken care of my husband and I’s crazy dog (a Brittany with TONS of energy and separation anxiety) and done a fabulous job. I’d highly recommend her as a dog sitter!
