Availability

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around being available, attentive, and flexible. I have consistent availability throughout the week and can adjust my routine to meet your pet’s needs, whether that’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I prioritize reliability and communication, so you can count on me to show up on time and keep you updated with messages or photos. Spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so I make it a regular and important part of my week.

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In your home, I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine closely to keep things familiar and stress-free. I pay attention to details like secure doors, safe walking routes, and making sure pets are always supervised when needed. I take time to build trust with each animal, especially those who may be shy or anxious, using patience and positive interactions. I’m also comfortable handling feeding schedules, crate routines, and administering basic medications if needed. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in a caring, responsible, and attentive environment with me.

Information Mary R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, medical conditions, or behaviors I should be aware of so I can provide the best care possible. This includes things like dietary restrictions, anxiety triggers, or training routines. I’m open to caring for many types of dogs, but I especially do well with friendly, social pets or those who are comfortable with an active and engaging environment.

A typical day

I love to keep dogs both physically and mentally stimulated throughout the day. We’ll play fun games, go on engaging walks, and explore all the exciting smells around my neighborhood. I also take trips to a large park nearby where dogs can enjoy fresh air, exercise, and new environments. Between activities, there’s always time for rest, cuddles, and making sure your pet feels comfortable and happy.

Loving, Reliable Pet Sitter Who Tre

Pet care experience

I’ve been caring for pets for several years, including dogs of all sizes, cats, and even senior animals who need extra patience and attention. What sets me apart is my calm, attentive approach and genuine love for animals. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, routine, and comfort level. I have experience with puppy care, basic training reinforcement (like leash walking and commands), and caring for older pets who may need medication, slower walks, or extra supervision. I’m very detail oriented, so I carefully follow any instructions you provide to keep your pet happy and safe. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just companionship, I make sure every pet feels loved and secure while you’re away.

Mary was wonderful with our senior girl Ruby.

Mary has looked after our doggies for a few years now as needed and she does an excellent job with them. She is diligent about feeding times and outside time (they are on a schedule). She takes the time to visit and play with them and has even stayed overnight with them for me before! They love it when they see her and get very excited when she comes over. I would definitely recommend her for pet sitting.
