I have a fenced in yard, two dogs to keep your pups company, and am able to crate your dog(s) if needed (I do prefer owners provide their crates if they wish their dog to be crated at night/etc.). I am around always and keep a watchful eye to ensure the safety of all pups. Dogs are supervised during feed time and when outside in the yard.

Information Mary M. would like to know about your pet

If it has any aggressiveness issues, how it interacts with other dogs, if it has any experience with cats, and if it is up-to-date with its shots. Also, any medical concerns/issues and of course, their favorite toy! I have no breed/age/size preferences, I enjoy all of them!

A typical day

I love spending time with the animals, whether it be just hanging out in the same room, petting, grooming, going on walks, giving treats, or playing! Dogs will get a daily walk if the owner wishes, and lots of time outside to run and play in the large back yard.

Pet care experience

If you’re looking for a quieter, more personable stay for your pups, this is the place! I’ve grown up around dogs and lots of other animals and have been caring for peoples pets via Rover for 10 years. I have a large fenced in back yard where we spend a lot of our time. I have two dogs of my own at home that enjoy having friends, and two cats as well. I am well experienced with senior dogs, mobility issues, and shy/timid dogs. I mostly work from home. I accept 2 dogs at a time. What a typical stay with me looks like: - Same feed schedule as your pup is on at home - Lots of time out in the large yard to run and play - A daily walk (15-45 min depending on your pups fitness level and regular routine) - Lots of pets and cuddles - A daily update with pictures of your pup and a little blurb of what we did that day! (Will provide 2 per day at owners request) - Medication if your pup requires * All feeding and yard time is supervised. If your pup prefers a crate if left alone or overnight, I am happy to crate them, but do ask that the owner provides the crate. Pets are allowed on furniture if the owner wishes. Provided pups are good with cats, they are allowed bedroom access. A Meet & Greet at my home is required prior to any booking for new pets.

Mary was amazing and provided "just enough" updates to keep me up to date without it feeling overwhelming. Definitely recommended!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
