About Mary

Experience: 35 yrs

Message me to set up a meet and greet. Hello! I am here to love your pets! I have always been a dog and cat lover, and they usually love me too! I have had my own dogs and cats since childhood. I've taken care of pets for over 30 years. I started off as a teenager with neighbors and family, and now have multiple regular clients. I will give your pet quality attention, as if my own. I can do overnights, drop-ins, and walks. I am available to stay at your home to provide extra comfort to your pets, as well as security to your home and doing mail, trash, and other duties. I am trustworthy and respectful, and will maintain your privacy. I have experience with all ages and sizes. I have dogs with anxiety and give extra care and patience to those I watch. I can give oral medication in pills and liquids. I take care of my diabetic dog with insulin injections and glucose testing. I look forward to helping your pets! References can back up my quality care, responsibility, and reliability.

I’ve known Mary for several years now. I trust her completely to care for my dog and to keep an eye on the house when we are away. She truly loves what she does and it gives me such peace of mind when I’m out of town. I’ve come to know her better over the years…she is a loving mother, daughter, and a true lover of all animals and children. She is mature and professional, and takes her job seriously. I have booked her months in advance sometimes, and she has never forgotten or canceled on me. I highly recommend her!!!
