Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced pet parent
I’ve been around dogs my entire life. I currently have one dog here in savannah named Pax, and have raised and cared for my two childhood dogs, Buddy and Brownie, along with occasional sitting for my aunts three legged disabled dog named Wags, giving me hands-on experience with daily routines, behavior, and long-term care. I also have taken care of a cat full time for a year so I have experience with cats as well. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, and making sure every animal feels safe and cared for. I treat every pet like my own and pay close attention to their individual needs, whether they’re energetic or more relaxed.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Mary looked after my dog Rascal for a week while I was on vacation. Rascal sometimes has trouble eating and has a very specific diet and routine to follow, so sometimes I have trouble with dog sitters ignoring the instructions I leave for his routine and he comes back noticeably skinnier and unhappy. But Mary was great at following instructions and Rascal came back a happy & healthy dog. I was also quite impressed with how tidy she left my place after spending the week with him. Mary is a very organized person who always makes sure your pets stay happy and healthy.

Schedule
I’m currently a student at SCAD, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I’m available on weekends and weekdays before or after my classes, with lots of time in the afternoons and evenings for walks, playtime, and attention.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have hands-on experience caring for cats as well. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and routine, and I always follow owner instructions carefully. I can crate if needed, keep spaces clean, and make sure pets are always supervised, secure, and happy.

A typical day
I love spending time with pets and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved. I enjoy going on walks, playing, exploring outside, and giving them lots of attention and affection. I’ve had dogs my whole life, so I understand how important it is to keep them active while also giving them time to relax and cuddle.
