Loving Doggie Sitter

I am crazy about dogs....big ones, little ones, young ones & old ones. Taking care of dogs is a passion of mine. I love meeting new dogs and their owners. My husband and I live in a 2000 sq. foot home with a nice backyard & a pool in a beautiful neighborhood in Roseville. At the present time we do not own a dog so the thought of taking care of someone else's is very appealing. Our household consists of my husband Frank, my daughter Elizabeth, her husband Chris & myself. We all love our doggie guests. I have been with Rover since 2015 and it has been a great experience. I only board one dog at a time so your pup will get all our attention and love. We have many repeat clients so when a dog comes back to stay they are really excited. We'll take your dog for a walk, play fetch, play in the pool or just lounge around. Looking forward to meeting you & your pup.

Mia had a wonderful time with Mary’s family. She got to go on plenty of walks and got lots of love and cuddles. She received plenty of attention, which she craves, and I could tell when I picked her up that she was happy. I hope that Mary is available to watch Mia the next time we go on vacation.

Mary is the amazing! It’s clear how much she loves having Tucker over and it’s just reassuring to know he’ll be not only cared for, but loved. She only takes one dog at a time which is great. She’s also very fast with communication. We try and plan trips way in advance to ensure we get a reservation. Cause Mary is the best! Highly recommend!

Mary was wonderful, and her family was so warm and welcoming. My dog was very well cared for, and I felt completely at ease leaving him with her. I especially loved that she only takes one dog at a time, which was perfect for my dog since he prefers being the only dog in the home. Mary’s husband took him on a walk every day, and he seemed happy and relaxed when we picked him up. We would absolutely book with her again.

Safety, trust & environment

We are very vigilant when it comes to the safety of your pet. We have a fenced in yard and during walks we never let a dog off leash.

A typical day

I am very relaxed and flexible in terms of my dog-sitting style. The dogs may sit on our furniture and roam the house. We want the dogs to feel comfortable and right at home.

16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Takes only 1 client at a time
Mary can host up to 1 pet per night
I have no breed preference. All are welcome. I do appreciate knowing as much as possible about your dog though. It helps me to create a comfortable atmosphere. Also, your dog MUST sleep through the night. Please be sure to fill out the itinerary and the pet instructions portion on Rover’s web site. When making your request please include drop-off and pick-up times. This will help me to plan accordingly. **ATTENTION: Rover charges per each 24 hour increment. For this reason, if your dog is picked up past the time they were originally dropped off, there will be a daycare rate charge. Example; dog is dropped off at 9 am on Friday and picked up at 2 pm on Sunday , you would be charged for 2 nights and 1 daycare rate per dog.**
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
