Mary and Bob became family almost immediately to or Lexi. She adopted them as soon as she walked through the door and that is unusual for her. She felt right at home. Could not ask for more. Thank you Mary and Bob for being such good doggy surrogate mommy and daddy

Our dog was very comfortable in the house within minutes. She sniffed everywhere, went outside then made herself at home on the couch. We forsure will use Mary again. Thanks Mary.

Mary provided phenomenal care for Mika. Communication with Mary was spot on. Mika felt at home as soon as we dropped her off. We could not be more pleased with the attention and care Mary gave to Mika. She was a very happy dog!!!

Mary and Bob were wonderful! We felt very comfortable leaving Heidi with them and couldn't have asked for better communication and care. She seemed to have a wonderful time in their care and we wouldn't hesitate to have her stay with them again. Their home and yard are were so nice, and Heidi really felt at home. We love that they only take one client at a time. Thanks again, Mary!!

Lola came home happy and tired! I know she enjoyed having a yard to roam since she does not have one at home! Mary was attentive to her needs and monitored for when she needed her meds.

Schedule

I don’t work outside the home so I have plenty of time to love, play and feed your dogs. I walk everyday for exercise and would love to have the company of dogs. I have a big secure fenced in back yard. We live in a new neighborhood with a lot of friendly neighbors. I watch one dog at a time unless dogs from the same household I can watch two. I have no other pets of my own. This keeps me fully aware and devoted to your fur-babies!

Safety, trust & environment

Playtime is important as well as exercise and potty breaks. I am very in tune to your fur-babies’ needs! I have a large fenced in backyard but will never leave your fur-babies unattended outdoors. We have a large home with couches where your fur-baby will be very comfortable.

A typical day

I am physically fit with no medical issues. I have a large fenced in backyard to run and play safely with them. We also play fetch and tug of war indoors where we have plenty of room. This gives them plenty of exercise while taking into consideration their age and physical health.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or if they take medicine and also their eating habits. Please bring their favorite toys for playtime! I keep myself aware of their age and physical condition when we play or walk. I need their veterinarian information and an emergency contact if I can’t get ahold of you.
