Loving DOG MOM for your babies!

Pet care experience

I’ve never known life without a dog or cat. They are my favorite people to be around. I wish I could have a whole farm of them! Experienced in snuggling, playing, exercising, medicine admin and even insulin injections. I know how it feels to have to leave your pet behind and worry about them. I’m a great communicator; love to send pics of your fur babies while you’re gone so you can see how happy they are when I visit. Check-ins, playtime, walks, feeding-I’m your girl! Special outings (dog park, vet appointments, grooming dropoff/pu, etc) available upon request.

Mary is absolutely fantastic and one of the very best pet sitters we have had! Mary is great at communicating, reliable and pays attention to detail. We felt comfortable and at ease knowing our two dogs were in her hands. We will definitely rebook her when needed!

Pepper had the best time with Mary!! I almost didn't want to leave a review because I hope Mary will always be available to watch my Pepper. Pepper is a puppy and Mary took incredible care of her - taking her outside frequently, keeping eyes on her, and introducing her to her two dogs. She introduced them slowly, and the dogs ended up having a great time! Mary kept me updated throughout the day with many photos, and it brought me a lot of comfort knowing Pepper was in such great hands! Such a great and easy experience and will absolutely be using Mary again!

Mary has watched my dog, Jasper many times and he is always so happy to see her! She has fostered very sick dogs and took great care of them until they were healthy enough to be adopted. Mary is dependable and trustworthy, and I would not hesitate to have Mary take care of my dog in any situation.

I have 2 golden retrievers that are in and out all day. I care for your pets according to your instructions in order to keep their schedule disruptions to a minimum. The key is for me to do things just like you would so your pet doesn’t even realize you’re gone!

Information Mary S. would like to know about your pet

Are they shy or outgoing? Do they like to stay inside and just have quiet time with a hooman or do they need to be outside as much as possible? Do they need to be exercised when I visit or just checked on and soothed? Are they treat motivated? Do they know any commands or tricks? Of course, food schedule and amounts, where they eat and sleep. The more you can tell me about your pet, the better!

A typical day

I would love to find out if there are any special habits or games your pet enjoys! For instance, my dog loves to drop a ball off the wall in our backyard and have me throw it for him…over and over. I love walking dogs, playing fetch, belly scratches, hide & seek with toys and taking dogs for a swim or hike in the woods.
