I’m beyond honored and grateful for the trust placed in me, so I’ll always respect your preferences, your home, and your privacy.

Information Mary W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any special needs or instructions for care. Meet & greets are great for this. The more information you give me about your babies, the better care I can give to them. Thanks!

A typical day

Building a relationship and establishing trust with animals is a priority, so an initial meet and greet with you and your pets is so important. This way not only do you get to make sure we’re a good fit and give me instructions and a key, but also your pets will feel more comfortable when I come to take care of them. It’s a win-win!

Dog is Love💕(Cat too w Attitude!)

Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve gone by “Marie” since I was a kid & animal lover since then, my adored animals have always been a very important part of my family. Pets are the family we get to choose! All animals, I believe, are sentient beings with ability to empathize, love, hurt, feel joy, & feel safe. My goal is for your pets to feel safe & cherished almost as if you were there. I’ll keep their meals, play, treats, any medicine, commands just how you’d like. Routines will be kept. *Unless* if you happen to have a robot feeder and it stops working, I will feed your pet. 🐾💕 If this is your first time using Rover, use my code to get $20 off your first pet stay. (MARIEW12376) I helped run an Animal Rescue Group for 9 years, and have fostered & re-homed over 80 dogs & 25 cats. 7 years pet-sitting. I fall in love with every animal I meet, including guinea pigs & rabbits! I'm reliable, organized, and will love & care for your furry family as if they’re my own. And your home will be treated as if its Fort Knox. I exercise daily so I’ll love long walks &/or playtime with your pets just as much as they will! I’m big on transparency and communication so I will send you updates as much or as little as you prefer. You’ll always get a ton of photos! Summary of Services: *Clear communication with you *Photos, photos, photos *Meals & Fresh Water *Medicine/supplements on request *Dog walks *Litter Cleanup *Games & Treats (if approved) *LOADS of Love, Play, & Cuddles

Marie was a pleasure to work with and did an amazing job taking care of my dog. She was very communicative and my dog really looked to be having a great time with lots of walks, playing, and love.

Marie is a true gem. She can handle our working dog puppy and is so gentle with our senior. Her communication is the absolute best!

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.
