I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets consistent attention and care throughout the day. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting, and I pride myself on being as reliable and communicative as possible. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and can adjust timing as needed to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.

About MaryAnn D.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I focus on creating a calm, safe, and respectful environment for every pet. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding routines, medications if needed, and any specific preferences your pet has. I’m attentive to behavior and body language, especially with shy or anxious animals, and I always prioritize their comfort and safety. I also respect your home and space, keeping things clean and secure while you’re away. I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands!
Information MaryAnn D. would like to know about your pet
I like to know your pet’s routine, temperament, and any specific needs ahead of time so I can provide the best care possible. Please let me know about feeding schedules, medications, triggers, or behaviors (such as anxiety, reactivity, or escape tendencies). I’m very comfortable following detailed instructions and want to make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away.
A typical day
I focus on keeping your pet’s day consistent, calm, and comfortable. We’ll follow their usual routine for feeding, walks, and rest so they feel secure while you’re away. I enjoy taking dogs on relaxed walks where they can explore at their own pace, and I make sure they get attention, play, and quiet time depending on their personality. I also provide regular updates so you always know how they’re doing.

Calm, caring, and reliable sitter!
Pet care experience
I’ve cared for animals for most of my life and have always been someone friends and family trust with their pets. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I take the time to understand each animal’s personality and needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, and maintaining routines so pets feel safe and secure while you’re away. Whether a pet is energetic, anxious, or more independent, I adjust my approach to what works best for them. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I aim to provide dependable, gentle care every time.

Reviews
This was the first time with Mary Ann sitting with my pets and I couldn’t be happier. My pets were comfortable and and calm while I was away. Her experience with different breeds shows.
MaryAnn D. did an amazing job taking care of our furbabies. They were very taken care of and happy when we arrived back from our trip. We would highly recommend MaryAnn to anyone that needs a reliable, friendly and trustworthy house sitter or pet care taker!
We had a wonderful experience with Maryann! She took such great care of Lucca and treated him like one of her own. She was attentive, caring, and made sure he was comfortable, happy, and well looked after the entire time. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. We truly appreciate her kindness, reliability, and the genuine love she has for animals. We highly recommend Maryann to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets. Thank you, Maryann, for taking such amazing care of Lucca!
She was absolutely the best sitter for my fur babies, and house. They all three loved her from the moment they met. She will be forever my go to sitter.
