Information Maria A. would like to know about your pet

If your dog requires any special attention or accommodations please let me know ahead of time so that I can best prepare. We are very open to adjusting to all dogs.

A typical day

My community is filled with plenty of walking places that is safe for everyone. We love playing ball in the big open space we have near our house, and going out on hikes, if your dog is comfortable doing so. We will go out on 15 min walks every 2 hours.

Pet care experience

I’m a dependable dog sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with dogs and making sure they’re comfortable while their owners are away. I know how important routines are, so I stick closely to feeding times, walks, and any specific instructions you leave. I pay attention to a dog’s personality and energy level—whether that means getting out for longer walks and playtime or just keeping things calm and familiar at home. I’m careful, patient, and respectful of both your dog and your space. I’ll keep you updated with photos and quick messages so you know everything’s going well. My goal is for you to feel at ease while you’re gone and for your dog to feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for.

Our 70-pound lab/hound mix, Donny, just stayed with Maria for the second time and the experience was once again excellent. Maria is very responsive and communicative, sharing updates and photos throughout the stay. Normally Donny stays with family when we travel, but when they are unavailable it’s great to still be able to travel knowing Donny is having a good time and being well taken care of.h

Cannot recommend Maria enough! She was excellent with our rescue who is reactive to other dogs. She was great with his high energy level. She sent frequent pictures and updates which was amazing. Will definitely be going back :)

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
