Caring, animal lover!
Pet care experience
I have grown up with dogs, and love to be around them. I am unable to have my own dog right now, so I want to offer my services to help other people. My family has relied on pet sitters to help care for our dogs when we're not around, and I know how important it is to have reliable help. I'm responsible and trustworthy and will enjoy keeping your pet company when you are not around. I have a bachelors degree in zoology and I love animals of all shapes and sizes. I believe in an active lifestyle for me and my animal friends! I own a cat, Rusty, and we live in a small house in Santa Cruz. I work in Santa cruz as an arborist, but have a flexible schedule and we can find a schedule that works. Your dog and I will have a fun time exploring the outdoors (if they're the energetic type) or hanging out in more familiar areas getting fresh air if your dog is not up for it. I'm looking forward to meeting some new friends, furry and otherwise. I have a special fondness for senior dogs, but the patience to work with all shapes and sizes. **starting January 1st 2016, the prices for services will be increased slightly due to the large portion that goes to Rover fees, and the large radius of my work area. Special prices can be arranged for multiple dogs or long stays, I know it can get costly!
Reviews
Mary was caring and responsible for my dog and cat. Everyone is happy.
Mary was wonderful with both our dogs. She made sure they were walked, she sent pictures, and made sure that our 15-1/2 year old got her medicine. Mary is very calm and let the dogs warm up to her. We would definitely have Mary stay with our girls again!
Mary stayed with our dog for two days and one night. We knew she was in good hands when we met her and she took an instant liking to our little dog. We received an update and a picture while away. I will definitely use her again!
We were very happy with Mary as our pet sitter. She spent a lot of time with our nervous pup and didn’t mind working with some of her quirks. Our dog is afraid of the rain and it rained most of the time we were gone! Mary waited for breaks in the weather to take our dog for walks. She kept in regular contact with us throughout our trip. We had to extend our stay one day, at the last minute, and she responded immediately and was able to accommodate our request. We enjoyed our trip knowing our pup was in Mary’s good care. We highly recommend Mary!
