Pawsitively Passionate: Here I am!

Pet care experience

At 33, I've NEVER been without a furry friend. Dogs have always been family, from the gentle Rada, a Rottweiler, to the playful Ronnie, a pug. As a volunteer at an animal shelter, I've cared for up to 25 pets, making them my "cherished pack". Beyond the basics, I focused on their social integration and provided assistance with medical care under veterinary supervision. Caring for animals is more than just a job - it's a source of pure joy and fulfillment.

Maksim was once again amazing. He’s Extremely thoughtful and thorough. He makes sure to keep you completely updated throughout the entire sit and always goes above and beyond to be accommodating. He has such great communication and follows all instructions Diligently. I know Sara is always having the best time with him.

Maksim was an exceptional sitter who exceeded expectations. He accommodated a last-minute request, meticulously followed all instructions, and maintained excellent communication throughout. Maksim provided frequent updates and was extremely accommodating. He went above and beyond by tidying up the place for the next sitter's arrival, including making the bed, washing dishes, and taking out the trash. I highly recommend Maksim and would welcome him back anytime.

Great first walk with Maxim! He shows so much care and interest in the dog, it’s evident that he truly enjoys this work. He also volunteers at a dog shelter! He was responsive and accommodating, we will definitely book him again!

Maksim truly loves animals, and they can feel it! He is warm, reliable, very responsive, and all around a pleasure to know. We’ve had several walks with Maxim, and plan to schedule many more! He takes the time to ask questions, get to know the dog’s behavior and preferences, and shows a lot of affection - a very important part of caring for animals. Very, very highly recommended!

Safety, trust & environment

While you're away, I'll ensure your pet receives top-notch care in your home or mine. I love quality walks, whether leisurely or lively. Taking a break from textbooks is a little joy in my day! A tidy space is key to health, and you can trust me with that. Your feeding instructions will be followed diligently. I have lots of experience caring for animals needing special attention.

Information Maksim G. would like to know about your pet

I have no conditions, requirements, preferences. I really love and am able to care for a wide variety of animals, and I enjoy it equally.

A typical day

I like to massage the pet, scratch it in hard-to-reach places if the pet likes it. I like to run with my dog if it is active. I'll be happy to play games. I like to communicate with a pet so that it feels the attention of a person and does not feel loneliness. I will give the animal freedom during a walk.
