7. Mary L.
“I travel a lot overseas and was in need of someone to dog sit my pitbull Kahlúa. A friend of mine recommended Mary L. When Kahlúa and Mary met for the first time, they became instant friends. Mary was very friendly and I can tell she had a great love for animals. When I was abroad, Mary maintained contact with me via email almost on a daily basis sending pictures and updates over the past couple years. Mary has looked after Kahlúa for me several times and I would not entrust anyone else to look after her. I highly recommend Mary to anyone looking for a professional caring dog sitter for either a short or long period of time.”

About: I grew up on a farm taking care of numerous animals. I have one dog currently, named Maisie. She is a goofy Chocolate Lab that gets along with anyone and always up for some cuddles. My schedule is currently very flexible. I am able to stay at home all day and get your dog’s energy out. Have a fenced-in backyard and can also take your dog on walks. Backyard has plenty of room for your dog to run to their heart’s content I’m happy to crate or not crate your dog if needed, whichever makes you feel more comfortable.
