About the caregiver

My name is Mary Veltman and my best friend of over ten years now is Yuri, when we met in a shelter all those years ago it was love at first sight even though he had been taken out of a horrible home. I’ve spent quite a bit of time caring for neglected and abused dogs as well as those that haven’t had a rough start to their lives. Ever since I was a young child my family has always had dogs and for quite a while I had my own dog care business (walking, sitting, boarding, some grooming) to help make money for college (while working another job) by doing something that’s personally fufilling while hopefully helping our companions and their owners quality of life along the way. I’ve cared for many breeds of dogs small and large, service and domestic. Whether they are someone else’s companion or my beloved Yuri I love them all and have always loved the time I’ve been fortunate enough to have with them.
