😍 Dogs are my ❤️, let me help!
Pet care experience
One of my favorite things to do is to send photos of pets to their owners when their owners are away. I love working with all animals, they bring joy and delight to this world and deserve great care. Have been cat/dog/bird/lizard/chicken/you name it sitting for the last 10 years. I enjoy being reliable and flexible for friends, family, and “brand new friends”/strangers :). Every animal has different needs; I have years of experience when it comes to giving pets medication. Let me help out and allow you to relax while you’re away knowing your furry little one is doing well.
Reviews
Maryjane did a wonderful job housesitting with our 3 dogs. She sent pictures frequently and gave us nice updates on how they were doing. We will use her again!
I almost don’t want to share how great Maryjane was because I want to be able to use her!! But I will do the right think and tell you she was GREAT. My dogs were happy and extremely well cared for during our trip. When we returned they were energetic and playful, none of that post-you-left-us sadness that we sometimes see. She handled meds, walks, meals, and overnights beautifully. I highly recommend her!
Maryjane is great, reliable, responsive and our dogs love her!
We can always count on you, Mary Jane! Thank you so much for taking such great care of our babies!!

Safety, trust & environment
I feel like the best kind of care is following instructions given to me by pet owners. They know their animals and they know what their animal needs. The one thing I’ve learned over the years is every animal is different. Also paying attention is very important. When I first meet a pet, I try to establish their norm/baseline and if they act in a way that seems not their norm, I always reach out and let the owners know about it. Quick and clear communication goes a long way. All in all, it is important to stay safe, and to create an environment for the animal that is trusting and kind.
Information Maryjane F. would like to know about your pet
It’s always helpful to know what level of training the dog has so I can have realistic expectations for each animal. I like to try to keep things as similar as possible to their daily lives as far as where they eat, where they sleep, and what activities they do. I believe that consistency provides the pet with minimal stress while their owner is away.
A typical day
Play and exercise are incredibly important, especially when the pets are missing their owners. I love taking walks and sometimes driving over to the dog park to grab fresh air and to run the dogs around.
