Dogs Are Family Too

Pet care experience

Whether your dog be small and hyper, large and lazy, or somewhere in between, I am guaranteed to put in the time and effort to make sure your dog is comfortable and content while you are away. I have always had a strong attachment to animals, whether they be my own or not. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and personalities and am able to provide the patience it takes to tend to each dogs individual needs. - I work full-time at Merck & Co. in Elkton. I am typically free at 4pm on weekdays and have weekends off -I live in a multi-level apartment with my boyfriend, Jacob, and our beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Willow. My boyfriend and I love other pets and our dog is especially fond of meeting new friends! My boyfriend works from home during the week, so he is also there to help throughout the day! - JMU alumni (GO DUKES!!💜💛) I am excited to have the opportunity to work with you and if you take an interest to my profile, please do not hesitate to contact me!

Maryellen stayed with my best fur friend last weekend and everything went extremely well, including her being flexible for our earlier than expected return home!!!!

Mary Ellen is a pro. Went left our young and active dog and our home in her care for a week and she never gave us any doubt all was under control. She reached out if she needed direction and sent pics of our dog which made us smile. We highly recommend her.

Maryellen takes care of my cat while I’m away. She is trustworthy and is someone I will request every time I need Rover. I highly recommend her!
