Looking for a run/walk furry friend

Pet care experience

I have always been the go to dog sitter for my family and friends, I love spending time with dogs but can’t commit to having my own yet so I love being able to commit for shorter periods of time. I am currently working a 9-5 job and looking for dogs to take care of after work by going on walks/runs. If your dog is able to spend time alone at home during the day I would love to stop over in the morning and then able to come by after work as well to spend more time. Have been taking care of dogs of all types, mostly large dogs and making sure they are exercised, brushed, fed, and loved. Can’t commit to being financially responsible for a dog full time but more than able to travel or stay at your home to keep animals company.

Mary Catherine made it comfortable for us to leave our new rescue pup for the 1st time. Having her stay in our home with Tye allowed us to relax and not worry. Thank you Mary Catherine and Rover!

A very poor experience overall with MaryCatherine. She was booked to house sit with our two dogs over a long weekend so my wife and I could attend a wedding out of town. The first day our dogs were left alone for over 12 hours, and we had to ask a neighbor to go over to feed them, give them fresh water, and make sure they were okay as MaryCatherine wasn't responsive to texts/calls. The next day, her communication improved, and it seemed like we could let the first instance go. Unfortunately, she then left our house that evening around 7 and didn't return! (We have cameras on our entrances). We were so worried that we texted, called, and even submitted a note to Rover that our pets had been abandoned. Luckily (AGAIN) our neighbor ran over to check on them late that morning. After NOON the next day, MaryCatherine returned our text and said she wasn't able to drive back the previous night, but she'd take care of them now through the next morning. Our dogs were left alone for over 17 hours. She was apologetic, but honestly never expected this level of irresponsible behavior from an adult. I hate leaving poor reviews, but I would never recommend her to anyone unless you genuinely don't care about your dogs, or you have an amazing group of neighbors as a plan B.

MaryCatherine has watched our dog a few times and she always does a great job. We really appreciate her help while we are traveling!

MaryCatherine was great! We were so happy that Walter was taken such good care of! It was comforting to know that he was in good hands while we were on vacation. We look forward to using MaryCatherine again on our next vacation! We couldn't be more impressed!

Information MaryCatherine M. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know about if you dog can stay home alone or is good in the car and with other dogs as well as it’s basic feeding schedule.

A typical day

I wake up and let the dogs out to go potty and prepare their breakfast then have then come back inside to eat and then out to more playtime outside. If I am working then I will make sure they have enough water and toys out to stay mentally stimulated while I am gone. I will do the same thing when getting home from work but if it is a weekend than I would love to take the dog in the car to fun parks nearby or for walks around the neighborhood or even if my friends allow for them to come along and meet my friends and go on hikes, play in backyards, or just to get a Starbucks puppccino.
