Your furbaby is my furbaby

Pet care experience

Hi, my name is Mary and I am 64 years young . I have had pets all my life, from fish, birds, hamsters, cats, and dogs. My most recent dog passed away from Cancer almost 10 years ago. She was my best friend, travel companion, and rock for almost 13 years. I have a rescue cat now that I have had for 8 years. Since I lost my precious Kirby, I have taken all my love for her, and been giving it to other precious babies who need love and attention when their parents need to be away from home on vacation, or work. I have a few regulars that I watch numerous times throughout the year. I have taken care of multiple pets at a time, and have also taken care of dogs with special needs. I have administered meds as needed, walked, played, bathed, cooked for, and loved all my pet clients as if they were my very own. I retired in 2021 and I am now putting all my extra energy and hours, into my love of pets, to be your trustworthy, compassionate, and all around pet care provider.

Mary is absolutely amazing!! She came for an initial visit and my dogs immediately loved her and could tell she loved them. We had her come over Christmas and she kept us informed, sent pictures and the house looked so amazing when we got home!! She’s just the BEST!!

Mary took great care of our ten year old beagle who requires medication four times a day. She was friendly, easy to communicate with, and provided updates on how things were going. We will definitely book with Mary again based on the great care our dog received.

We loved Mary! She did great with our very picky dogs and was so kind to come and meet them more than once! Highly recommend her to any other pet parents out there! :)

I don't take care of others' pets in my home because I already have a full house with 4 dogs and 2 cats. ( not all mine 😊) While taking care of your precious furbabies, I will spend time playing in the backyard, indoors during inclimate weather, and go for walks around the neighborhood.

Information Mary M. would like to know about your pet

I am experienced with special needs dogs and can administer meds as needed. I like to have emergency numbers and Veterinary info, just incase of a major emergency.

A typical day

Playing with toys inside or out, is a great way to burn off energy when kept in crates during the day. I love playing catch in the yard and going for walks .

Since I am retired, my schedule is pretty much clear, so I can spend more time doing what I love, taking care of furbabies when their parents can't be home.
