1. Deanne D.
“This was our second time using Deanne and both times we gave her challenging circumstances which she handled exceptionally well!! This time…Our daughter was getting married so it was a busy and important weekend for us. One of our dogs was several weeks out from major surgery on both legs, on several medications and restrictions as well as needs for exercise and assistance. And, to add to the challenge she started her first heat cycle just as we were leaving and couldn’t have her therapy that week to help with her mobility and pain as a result . One of our other dogs has major anxiety issues so transitions can be hard for her as can simple things like noises and walks. Deanne handled all of this with ease and professionalism and Her updates were timely and helped us to enjoy the wedding without worrying a bit about the pets. We returned home to very happy pets. Deanne does an awesome job as a house and pet sitter and we wish there were more than 5 stars to give her. She is exceptional!! We will always use her in the future!”

12. Terri T.
“Terri watched my babies for 2 weeks recently while I was in Europe. I was a nervous nelly about leaving them behind. I certainly didn’t want to put them in a kennel / prison. Terri kept me constantly updated with texts and photos on how they were doing. Most importantly she kept them on the small routines they were used to so that they would be less stressed. I too was less stressed. She did a great job. I would recommend her highly.”

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of large animals since the age 8 from rabbits, dogs, cats, turkeys, horses, and cattle. I’ve shown cattle and turkeys at several county fairs over the years,and have the skills required to take great care of your pets! Taking care of animals is a passion of mine and I’d love to take care of your pets as if they’re my own! Contact me today if you have any questions and I’d be happy to help! I’m currently working a full-time 5-3 position, I’ll be available for dog walking after 3pm on week nights, and available for boarding weekends. Available for overnight stays depending on the location. I would care for them as if they were my own. I have an unfenced yard but love to take walks in all kinds of weather. I love having a dog as a walking companion. Although we have an unfenced yard low traffic roads are plenty in our rural community to take your furbabies out for fresh air! In a clients home, whatever their schedule and instructions are will be followed, I also know the importance of communication about your furbaby, so will text updates as requested.

She is very good at taking directions for individual care of each dog. Maiara has also watched my dogs for me when I am gone. I highly recommend Maiara as your next dog sitter!”
