Experienced pet sitter/walker

Pet care experience

I’ve loved animals ever since I was born and have a lifetime of experience training and caring for dogs. I have volunteered for a dog rescue organization and foster for shelters so I have experience caring for all kinds of breeds. My family and friends always know they can count on me to take care of their pets while they’re away.

I want to express my utmost gratitude for Mary Stanish and the love she has for my 7 year old Frenchie, Trilla. You see, I am an avid traveler. I attempt to take a cruise at least once a year, sometimes twice if I am lucky. Other times, I may take a weekend getaway for a night or two. In most cases I try to take Trilla with me as she deserves to see the beauty of this world as much as any of us do. For the trips I can’t bring her with, I immediately ask Mary if she would be able to doggy sit my baby. Besides Trilla’s momma (myself), Mary is her next favorite person. Whenever I go out of town or on a cruise, I never worry about how Trilla is doing or feeling. Trilla is a mighty but small sized cuddle monster. Mary will gladly accommodate any requests from Trilla, including all the cuddles, treats and belly rubs she could ever dream of. She is not very active, but Mary always gets her moving with toys and walks. Mary would love to take Trilla to the dog park every day, but knows and understands that she (Trilla) does not get along with any other dog. Mary is very conscientious about Trilla’s needs, restrictions, medicine and health. Once again, it is never a worry when Trilla is with Mary. I know Mary is very active with the Husky rescue she is a part of. It makes her day just to spend 5 minutes helping out these dogs that are looking for their furever home. Whether it is adoption events or just transporting a dog in need, Mary will be there. If Mary could, she would have a large house with a massive backyard just to rescue all the dogs in need. Her love and compassion for animals is truly heartwarming and I am lucky to have Mary be Trilla’s first and only doggy sitter.

Mary is an exceptionally loving and thoughtful person. She truly cares for any animal, and owner, and just wants to spend her day snuggling animals and giving them the care they need. I would trust her with my sweet dog in a heartbeat.

She is patient and has great detail to the pups in her care. She is great when watching my pack & sending picture updates while they are in her care. She is a fellow volunteer for Husky Haven of Florida. She is amazing helping with transporting pups to where they need to go. She never hesitates to help out and truly loves the pups she helps.

Mary has loved animals her whole life and they love her too! She is very good with them and truly loves taking care of them! She is responsible and trustworthy and can be counted on to always put the best interest of the animal first. I highly recommend Mary for any activity that involves taking care of pets!

Safety, trust & environment

I have experience in caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. I’ve volunteered for a husky rescue in the past and have fostered for shelters. I have experience bathing, feeding, walking, training, and administering medication. Safety is my number one priority. When I transport dogs, they’re always buckled in with seatbelt leashes, and I always go on walks with them leashed.

Information Mary S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behavioral problems I may need to be aware of. I also like to know about allergies, medication, and eating schedules ahead of time as well.

A typical day

I love to take dogs for long walks through the neighborhood or park allowing them to take in all the sights and smells. They’re sure to have fun as we play with their favorite toy. I also like to mentally stimulate them with games, tricks, and treats!
