Pet care experience

Providing loving care to your pets!

Hi there, I’m Mary, and I got my start fostering pets through a local shelter, welcoming dozens of furry friends into my home over the years. These days I focus on dog walking and drop in visits for your pets. For my full time job, I manage historic sites, including a farm where I take care of donkeys, goats, sheep, chickens, and of course barn cats! I look forward to making sure your own dog or cat has all their needs taken care of while you’re away. Nothing makes me happier than seeing a big grin on your pup’s face, tail wagging, during my visit. If that means a brisk walk, cuddling, treats, or a good head scratch, it is my pleasure to make sure s/he is completely content in my care. My own canine assistant Ziggy sometimes tags along on walks or visits; If you have a young or energetic dog, I guarantee s/he’ll have a blast playing chase with Ziggy.

Safety, trust & environment

With two dogs of my own, I can only accept dogs that get along with other dogs. This is for obvious safety reasons. My yard is completely fenced in with a six foot fence.

Mary took such good care of our gang of quadrupeds. We booked last minute but she was still able to schedule a meet & greet with the crew prior to caring for them. One of our dogs (ok, 2) struggles with new people, but Mary was patient and took her on a little trust walk to get acclimated, which meant a lot to us. She was a dream and we highly recommend her to care for your loved ones too!
