About Mary Lou

I've always had a dog growing up in a large family. With me being the youngest, I always looked to the family dog as my younger sibling and looked after my dog as I would a younger sibling.I have recently had to put down my chocolate lab in April due to her health and I now fine a whole in my life that I need to fill by being around dogs.

I do work outside the home in the mornings but would be able to come to your house in the afternoons between the hours of 1-9 pm daily or have your dog come to my house between 1- 9pm daily. Your dog will be loved and cared for like you would if you choose me to look after your fur baby. I would love to talk or meet with you personally for a coffee to show you that I'm the right fit for your dog. I love mostly larger dogs but all dogs are precious in my books. I have a fenced yard so we can play outside. Also a good 30 minute walk is always included. I am used to only having one dog so I would take a maximum of 3 dogs in my home daily as long as they all get along.

My chocolate lab developed diabetes and I had to give her insulin shots twice a day, so I am comfortable with giving needles or medications. I do live with my husband in our home, so there will always be someone there if I had to leave for a short appointment. 

I am available to do overnights in your home for your holidays (occasionally) as long as it fits into my schedule. I understand setting alarms for security and I sure we can have a quick tutorial if you would need me for a house/and pet sitter service.

If I am going to your home daily to spend time with your pet, I can spend at least an hour walking your fur baby, bringing in your mail or parcels at the door and making sure your house is secure when I leave.

I currently have experience taking care of large birds, cats and dogs.

I work for Canada post in the mornings so I would be available from 1pm - 9pm daily and occationally on weekends . Unless I'm staying in your home for a home/pet service.

Mary Lou has been really good for both of my dogs. She stays on top of things and makes sure they get what they need. Very happy with the service and communication is quick. Dogs are well cared for.
