I can't say enough good things about Mary Littlefield who takes care of our very timid cat when we travel, which we do often. Miss Violet usually streaks upstairs when she hears a car pull into the driveway, and there she keeps watch from the top step, expecting pillage and mayhem and the demise of us all .... unless it's Mary. Then she comes downstairs quickly and purrs loudly while directing long, meaningful glances toward her sitter. She's utterly shameless in her admiration for Mary. We try to ignore Miss Violet's outlandish behaviour, but sometimes wonder if we should spend more time at home -- put a little damper on this foolish infatuation. There was a crisis three years ago when Miss Violet swallowed a long string, and we weren't due back for another week. Mary handled the situation beautifully and kept us abreast of what was going on before and after the procedure to remove it. (Thanks, Mary!) Mary has apologized for endearing herself so to Miss Vi, and we forgive her wholeheartedly. She's become indispensable to our gadabout family. I can't recommend Mary Littlefield highly enough to anyone who travels and needs to leave a shy kitty at home. read more

Myself being a retired dog walker, I tagged along with Mary one week. I saw many different animals in many different situations. Most notable was a dog whose owners were away on a 3 week trip, and Mary was hired to take care of him three times a day. This dog was clearly depressed without his owners. Mary cheered him right up and stayed extra hours with him. She took photos of him and sent them to his owners. Mary understood his emotions and was able to comfort him. At another house there were two cats. When we arrived, they were hiding. Once Mary was there, they came running out. Mary doesn't just feed cats and go, she stays and pets them, plays with them, sits with them and puts them in her lap. What was apparent was how every animal loved and trusted her. She was able to be kind and gentle, but was also able to be firm and set boundaries with dogs that got out of control. You will love Mary's services! read more

Mary has been taking care of my pets since 2011, and I can say with confidence that she is wonderful at her job. I truly feel as though she loves my dog like she is her own, and when we lost our great dane recently Mary could not have been more kind. As I am the type of person whose animals are like my kids, I don't recommend pet services casually - Mary is the real deal; trustworthy, kind, and reliable. read more

Mary if Littlefield animal care has been taking care of my kitties for years. She even offered to come extra and spend time with my elderly cat when she was very sick and I couldn't be there. She is amazing with animals and loves every one of her charges as if they were her own. I can't say enough great things about her! read more

Mary was looking after my mother's ancient cat while she was away. When she got there one night, Freckles was having a seizure and needed to be rushed to the hospital. Since I was the emergency contact and Mom couldn't be reached, Mary called me right away. I met her at the hospital and we went in to see him. When THE decision had to be made, Mary stayed with us while he went to sleep and while I held him and said goodbye. I am so grateful for the love she showed the beloved family pet who came into my life when from the start and through the end. read more
