Pet care experience

I love dogs!

Hi. My name is Mary. I have owned dogs all my life, so they are like children to me. I lost my dog 6 years ago, but I’m not yet ready to get another. I would love to care for your pet(s). I have given medication to my dog daily, if you require it. I’m very good at spoiling them, too. I live in a dog friendly neighborhood, so walks are also an option.

Mary was great. She took very good care of our dog. She kept us updated daily on how they were doing. She was a pleasure to work with and we would highly recommend her.

Mary was very communicative and took great care of my dog! Will definitely be rebooking with her in the future.

We had a very nice long weekend with no worries about our pet babies. This really made everything less stressful. Thanks so much.

Mary was very clean and spoiled my 2 boys. They were pooped by the time we got back! Appreciated the last minute booking as well when family fell through.

Schedule

I'm retired, so I have all day available to keep your pet(s) company, either going for a walk, playing with a toy, or just relaxing on the sofa. They will get plenty of attention when I’m home along with great dog treats.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a 55+ community and would love to sit for your dog. However, they only allow dogs up to 25 pounds. I hope you will allow me to sit for your fur baby(ies). They will get lots of love.

A typical day

We will take daily walks around the neighborhood, and if your dog likes car rides, I’ll take them with me on errands, maybe even get a pupcup!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. I have given medication daily to my dog, and have cooked special meals when she wasn’t feeling well. I can do the same for your dog.
