Once again Mary took excellent care of my cat and my son’s axolotl‘s! It’s so nice to have her as an extension of our family. She really cares about our cat and family. Thank you Mary!!!

Mary takes great care of my pets every time. She sends great updates and photos and they adore her. I try not to be too jealous that they cuddle with her immediately like she's part of the family!

Mary did a wonderful job watching our two dogs for five nights. She communicated with us regularly and we could tell from the pictures and videos that our pups were having fun with her. We came home to happy pups and a clean house!

We booked Mary as our cat sitter last minute due to an emergency with our original sitter, and we are so grateful we found her. She handled our two cats incredibly well—she even made friends with our shy cat on the very first day, which is something we didn’t expect! Mary went above and beyond, spending extra time and effort to make sure our babies were comfortable and cared for. When we returned from our trip, both cats were relaxed, happy, and clearly well-loved. We would absolutely rebook Mary for our next trip and highly recommend her to our friends and anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and attentive cat sitter.

Mary stayed with my dog and cat while I was out of town and they had such a nice time with her. My cat took all his daily medicine really well for the first time with a sitter. My dog enjoyed hanging out with her in the yard. Both enjoyed cuddling with her on the couch! She did a great job taking care of my pets and loving them like they were her own!

I’m so lucky to have found Mary. She takes such amazing care of my (very) senior dog and is so good about ensuring she’s well looked after. Makes it so much easier to enjoy time away knowing my pup is in good hands!
