Pet care experience
Attentive Care & Lifelong Pet Lover
About Me Having grown up with dogs for most of my life, I understand that a pet is a family member who deserves undivided attention and care. In my professional life, I am a Special Education Teacher, a role that has gifted me with immense patience, a calm demeanor, and the ability to follow strict routines to the letter. While I don’t currently have animals of my own, I channel my lifelong passion into being the trusted, go-to walker and sitter for friends and family. The Benefit of Undivided Attention Since my home is currently pet-free, your dog or cat receives my 100% devotion without any distractions. I have extensive experience with multi-pet households, managing everything from high-energy play sessions for large dogs to the specific, quieter needs of independent cats. Whether it’s maintaining a strict feeding schedule or providing extra cuddles, I treat every pet with the same love and respect I gave my own for years. Services & Personalized Care Focused Dog Walking: Tailored to your dog’s energy level and sensory needs. Drop-In Visits: Ideal for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime. Reliable Communication: I am highly communicative and will send frequent photo updates so you can feel completely at ease while you’re away. My Availability I balance my love for animals with my full-time teaching career, which means I have a very consistent and predictable schedule: Mornings: Available Monday & Wednesday mornings for early walks/feedings (before 7 am). Evenings: Available Tuesday nights and Friday afternoons (after 4:00 PM). Weekends: I am fully available every other weekend, from Friday evening after 4 pm through Monday at 7:00 AM. Bonus Holiday & Summer Availability: As a teacher, I have extended flexibility during Spring and Winter breaks, as well as major holidays. I am also very open and available this coming summer for more frequent walks and drop-ins! Possible boarding and house sitting in the summer.

Ratings and reviews
Mary was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter! She was caring, reliable, attentive, and clearly treated my dog like her own. She kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind, and I came home to a happy, well-cared-for pup. I highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. We will definitely be booking with her again!
Look no further for your dog sitting needs! Mary went above and beyond to send us photos and updates daily! Sometimes hourly! Enzo came home happy as can be! We will be back!
Mary was great! She took very good care of my senior dog. Mary sent me pics every day and updated me on what my Penny did. I will definitely use Mary again!
Mary was amazing! I could tell she loved dogs and she took such good care of my girl when I was gone. She checked in regularly and sent me lots of pictures. I could tell when I got back Dakota had a wonderful time and it was like she was part of the family when I was gone. Would highly recommend 😊
Mary took amazing care of my dog, Zeke, while I was away. She went above and beyond when she noticed he had developed a head tilt and immediately took him to the emergency vet. When he still wasn’t improving after a few days, she followed up with his regular veterinarian to make sure he received the care he needed. Mary kept me informed every step of the way with detailed updates, photos, and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind during a stressful situation. It was clear that she genuinely cared for Zeke and treated him as if he were her own dog. I am incredibly grateful for her attentiveness, compassion, and dedication. I 100% recommend Mary to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter, and I will absolutely book with her again whenever she’s available!
Mary was awesome! She and her family loved my dog as if she were their own dog. She sent plenty of updates and photos. It felt so good to know my dog was well taken care of while we were away.

Schedule
Availability Tuesday Evenings: Available after 4:00 PM for walks or drop-ins. Wednesday Mornings: Available for early visits before 7:00 AM. Weekends: Available every other weekend (Friday 4:00 PM – Monday 7:00 AM) for more frequent visits. Note: As a full-time Special Education teacher, I am used to following routines! While my weekly schedule is consistent, I have a lot of flexibility during school holidays and long weekends. My schedule will be wide open for summer break as I will be nannying only two days per week. If you have a specific need outside these hours, please reach out. I’m happy to see if I can make it work!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
As a Special Education teacher and a mom, patience and reliability are second nature to me. When providing walks or drop-in visits, I focus on giving your pet my full, undivided attention and maintaining the specific routine they need to feel secure. I am extremely detail-oriented. Whether it's following precise feeding instructions or ensuring your home is locked up tight, I pride myself on sending frequent photo updates so you always have peace of mind. My goal is to be the most dependable part of your pet's day while you are away.
