4th year med student who loves dogs
Pet care experience
I have my own cat (3 year old) and puppy (7 months)! I also have been an active participant in the healthcare of my parents' elderly Boxer dog who has severe allergies. I help give him allergy shots and administer medicines. I am also a medical student so I am very comfortable with medical needs and emergency situations.
Reviews
Mary Virginia was a great sitter for my puppy Tucker. She made sure that he was well taken care of while I was at work with lots of time outside playing. He especially enjoyed getting to play with her puppy too!
Mary Virginia is that friend who is always dependable and reliable. She’s a student who is always one step ahead of everyone else because of how hard she works and her impressive dedication towards organization and preparation. And she is a person who above all else streamlines her life towards integrity and trustworthiness. She puts her heart into everything she does and that passion shows. I cannot think of anyone else who I would recommend as highly as Mary Virginia as she has all the qualities I would want in an employee or friend.
Mary Virginia is the world's biggest animal and dog lover! On several occasions, she has taken care of both my sweet, timid Old English Sheepdog and my temperamental Norwegian forest cat. To say they love her is an understatement, as my OES yelps with excitement every time he sees her! If you are looking for a dog sitter who will love your fur baby as her own, Mary Virginia is your gal! She will walk, hike, play, and snuggle to your pup's delight. I could not recommend her more highly.
Mary Virginia is a wonderful pet owner, with her pup Opie and cat Cleo, and I have seen first hand how much she cares for her pets. She has watched my 95 lb lab mix several times & Louie enjoyed his time with Mary Virginia. She is a medical student (about to become a physician), and is very responsible and kind. I have no hesitation in recommending Mary Virginia as a dog walker.

I would like to know how the dog does when they see other dogs (in case we come across another on a walk) and how to are around people as well for the same reason.
A typical day
I plan to take dogs on walks in my neighborhood (Southwind). I also like to frequent parks like Shelby Farms and WC Johnson Park. I am also open to any place owners know about that their pet may already love!
