About Mary

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I have had dogs and cats my whole life! Caring for them, loving every one of them. I pay close attention to detail, and will let you know if I have a concern about anything. I am also available for vacation supervision. I check-in twice a day, and spend about an hour each visit. I talk to them as I unlock the door. They recognize my voice and greet me! I believe the pets need human interaction while their "parents" are away and I have a lot of fun playing with the pets! Lots of playing with lasers, or I have a string/ribbon, and we run around. Good cardio exercise. I am dependable and flexible. I like to take pictures of the kitties to send to their parents, especially if they are doing something cute or silly! I have several reviews and all of my clients are repeat customers! Unfortunately, I am not able to provide boarding help. Thank-you for reading my info, and I hope to hear from you! Thanks. Please note, my fees are negotiable, but care. com. doesn't have a place to indicate

From the moment Mary walked into my home, my cat LOVED her (and her treats!). Mary made me feel very at ease leaving my pet in her care. While I was away she provided me with text updates and pictures of how much fun they were having together and I came back to a very happy cat. I would not hesitate to call Mary again if I needed help and I recommend her to everyone!
