When the alarm goes off at 5:30 every morning, I take our two labs downstairs to go outside, and then it's back up to the kitchen for breakfast. They spend the day with my husband, and then I take them outside before bed. They are my whole world!

Safety, trust & environment

My biggest goal is to make sure I abide by your pet's routine and disrupt their schedule as little as possible. Our animals trust us, and I never take that trust for granted.

Information Mary M. would like to know about your pet

If I've learned one thing in my time taking care of pets, it's that every animal is different. Please let me know if your dog or cat needs any special accommodations at mealtimes, bedtime, or any other time, and I'll make sure it's taken care of. I do work full time in Jefferson City Monday through Friday, so during the week I can only provide potty breaks before and after work.

A typical day

My goal as a sitter is to disrupt your pet's routine as little as possible. If you share a few of their favorite activities with me ahead of time - whether it's a jog around the neighborhood or a cuddle on the couch - I'll make sure it happens!

Pet care experience

I have been pet sitting since my freshman year of college, and am now in my 30s. I am especially good with older dogs who need special care - even hand feeding or adjusting what they eat for their digestive systems to handle on a given day. Let me handle them and I'll make sure they know they're loved!

Mary is the absolute best!! Every time Mary watches our girl, I feel so at ease knowing she’ll be well taken care of while we’re gone.

Mary did a great job with Cooper and Chloe. I plan to use her again and even have some friends to refer to her.

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.
