Hello! Best Animal Caregiver

I have had dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, bearded dragons, you name it. I am the go-to to call for taking care of your beloved animal. I understand and will fulfill every little preference someone has when I handle their fur baby. What is most important is the animal and owner are happy and comfortable.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in an area that has sidewalks and people constantly walk there dogs because it’s a safe environment. My apartment has a fenced in grassy area that I can utilize either trying to find the dog a playmate or making sure he’s separate if needed.

House Sitting • lip 14, 2026

I've never used a dog sitter before, so I was initially hesitant of hiring anyone I didn't know to come to my home and watch my dogs while I was away. Maria did a fantastic job watching my two bigger dogs and left my home the same way it was when I left. She asked questions to ensure she could provide the best care for them, showed up on time, and sent us updates every day. I would definitely use her again if needed. I would highly recommend her if you need your dogs to be watched!

My sister is incredibly responsible, attentive, and truly loves animals, making her the perfect choice to look after your pets. I’ve seen firsthand how much care she puts into everything she does, and I know you won’t regret having her watch your pets.

If you need someone to watch your pets, Maria is the absolute best. She’s my go-to girl for a reason whenever I am out of town. She’s incredibly reliable, and I know my pets (dog and two cats) are always happy and loved when they’re with her. I honestly wouldn’t trust anyone else. I can’t recommend her enough, you’ll have total peace of mind knowing your fur babies are in good hands!

Let me know if they have any special quirks that make them extra anxious or upset. Another big one is on walks are they okay to see other dogs or do they need to be steered the other direction? Prevention is always key. Also, let me know their favorite activities and if they have any favorite treats.
