From Walks to Snuggles I’ve Got You

Taking care of and loving animals has always been a true passion of mine. Ever since I can remember, I’ve felt a natural connection with pets and genuinely enjoy spending time with them, making sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m comfortable around both cats and dogs of all personalities. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or more calm and shy, I take the time to understand their needs and adjust my care to match their routine and comfort level. As a Navy wife, who is new to the area and currently have a lot of free time, which allows me to give your pets plenty of attention and care. I love taking dogs on walks and trips to the dog park (if permitted), making sure they stay active, stimulated, and happy. I offer a variety of services including walks, drop-in visits, doggy daycare, and overnight boarding. From quick check-ins and playtime to longer stays, I truly enjoy it all and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m new to Rover but I’ve been pet sitting on my own for years now, so I can provide many references if needed🩷 You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and caring. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving hands while you’re away.

Fernanda took excellent care of my dachshund for 3 weeks. She sent me pics and responded to my text messages when I asked about my baby. I plan on leaving my baby with Fernanda for 2 weeks in August. I could tell that Fernanda really enjoys and loves caring for animals. I highly recommend Fernanda to care for your pet.

Fernanda is sweet and obviously a lover of pets. She took care of my Lucy for a weekend. She communicated well and helped with medication and Lucy’s anxiety ridden scratching. I appreciate Fernanda for being so diligent while I was away.

Fernanda has been an incredible caregiver for my cat, Milo. She is reliable, attentive, and truly cares about the pets she looks after. While I was away, she kept me updated and made sure Milo was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a responsible and loving pet sitter.

Schedule

My schedule is very flexible, with mornings and mid-days working best for walks and drop-in visits. I’m consistent and reliable, so your pet will get the care and attention they need right on time. I’m happy to work with your routine to keep things as normal and stress-free as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always follow their routine as closely as possible to keep the pet comfortable and stress-free. I make sure doors are secured, water is fresh, and the environment is safe before and after each visit. During walks, I use secure leashes and stay alert at all times to ensure your pet’s safety. I avoid unsafe areas, watch for other animals, and pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and comfort. I always treat your home and your pet with respect and care, as if they were my own.
