Information Maira R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Also, I would appreciate learning a little about your pet. For instance, do they have any allergies, do they have any behavioral needs/ attention?

A typical day

I love to do all sorts of different fun activities with pets. The activity will depend on each dog’s needs. For instance, I love going on walks with them, playing, cuddling, petting… again depending on what every dog needs.

I genuinely love and care for dogs!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs, so I’ve always had a soft spot for them. There’s just something about their loyalty, personality, and the way they become part of your life that I really love. I, myself, when just 6 years old had a poodle and the responsibility to care for him. And along my life I always proudly owned a dog and took care of friends’ dogs when they were out of town. We recently lost a member of our family, a gorgeous German Shepherd Husky, to old age and would love to give my extra pet love to an amazing dog!

Maira is great. Daily pictures and videos of my dogs having fun, going on walks, and playing fetch. They really seemed to like their time staying with her and it was a little hard to get one of them to leave!

Maira was a wonderful with my 2 shelties. She sent photos and kept me informed throughout their stay. Ultimately my dogs were do relaxed and happy when I picked them up. They did not want to leave.😊

Maira was an amazing host for our dog. She made sure to keep us updated with pictures and had everything covered. I wouldn't even call her a host, but more like a auntie for our puppy. We have found our Rover person that we will use from now on!!

Maira will make the best pet care giver. She has the biggest heart and so much love to share. She is one of the most genuine people I know who really listens to you and takes what you say into account. She has had a ton of experience with pets, not just her own, but others as well. When we go out of town she is the person we rely on, and honestly I think our dog Nova likes her better than us! I highly recommend Maira (Mah as we call her) for any and all pet care needs!!
