House Sitting In Windom

“Brooke house/dog sat for us for a 2 week vacation to Europe and I was so nervous to leave my baby for so long but Brooke made it so easy! She sent multiple updates with pictures EVERYday and I could tell she really enjoyed her time with Rosie. She even brought over some enrichment toys for her and she really enjoyed those. I travel for work and am sad that I can’t take Brooke with us everywhere we go! She was great and definitely recommend her!”

“Zach was very good at building a strong bond with my dog. He sent photos and took him on walks even when he was resistant (not a fan of the cold). He also took care of our bunny and cat. He was able to effectively handle more then one pet at a time and made sure all got equal time and attention.”

About: The Best Part of Both Our Days After 20+ years in the corporate design leadership world, I am soft retiring and putting my reliability, commitment and energy into helping others and bringing happiness to their pets. With 10 years of dog walking and pet sitting experience, I don’t just show up. I show up for your dog, on their terms. Every dog is different, and I believe in honoring that. Whether your pup likes to stop and sniff every inch of the sidewalk or prefers a brisk, energetic stride, I walk at their pace because a great walk isn’t about the distance, it’s about the experience. I’m comfortable walking multiple dogs at a time, making sure every single one enjoys their walk, gets the attention they deserve and takes care of their business. From the energy of a curious puppy to the gentle needs of a senior dog, I understand that every stage of life comes with its own needs and I embrace all of them with patience and care. But it doesn’t stop at the leash. I genuinely love spending quality time with dogs, whether that’s a relaxed afternoon cuddle on the couch or an enthusiastic play session with their favorite toys. I take the time to learn what makes each dog feel happy, safe, and loved. When you book with me, you’re not just hiring a dog walker or pet sitter. You’re giving your dog their favorite part of the day and honestly, mine too. What I offer: •🐾 Dog Walking at your dog’s pace, never rushed •🏠 Pet Sitting calm, attentive and home-like •🎾 Playtime & Chill Visits toys, attention and all the love •🐶 Puppy & Senior Care patient, experienced and always attentive Your pet is family. I’ll treat them that way! I work a flexible part time schedule three days a week, which means I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pet. I’m happy to work around your routine and adjust my schedule to meet your dog’s needs because your peace of mind matters just as much as their happiness. Whether your dog is most comfortable in their own home or joining me at mine, they will always receive the same attentive, personalized care. At my place, they are welcomed into a calm, quiet home with a fully fenced yard and a friendly 5 year old 25lb Australian Labradoodle who loves making new friends. Your dog’s comfort and happiness always comes first, wherever that may be.

“I cannot recommend Marykay highly enough! Once again, she has gone above and beyond while watching our little dog, River, during our recent trip. Not only did she keep him incredibly happy and well-cared for, but she also managed to keep our house impeccably tidy. Her dedication and care are truly amazing. Thank you, Marykay, for being so wonderful!”
