Mary is the best! She was on time and had a very welcoming demeanor. The doggies loved her! I highly recommend for anyone to add Mary to their list of preferred caregivers!

Information Mary W. would like to know about your pet

If your dark is a "barker" I can gently work with him/her. If your dog is a puppy, I can provide basic training. If your dog has any fears (noises), I will be sensitive. If your dog has any allergies, I will be cautious! If your dog has diabetes, I am comfortable giving shots. I have NO breed preferences but do prefer dogs who are comfortable with a Golden Retriever. If not, my Golden can be separated. Our home is a Mediterranean Villa, so it's easy to separate animals.

A typical day

Nothing makes me happier than being surrounded by God's creatures, big and small. My large home is located on Flintrock Falls Golf-Course, a gated/protected community. Depending on the needs of your pets, I am flexible with my Jeep Wrangler to take to local dog parks/ hill country trails. I'm often a homebody (as I am a writer/Stay-at-Home-Mom) but enjoy doggie dates at the park during my daughters' school year. Rest assured that your loved one will be well attended to:) My hands are always "petting" "tossing tennis balls" or "on a leash" and THAT'S THE WAY I LIKE IT! I'm a huge fan of Caesar Chavez and his humane and loving training techniques. My patience with pets awards me all kinds of praise.
