Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet’s new best friend
I've spent years surrounded by dogs and cats, caring for pets of friends, family, and neighbors across several countries including Colombia, South Korea, and the U.S. I understand every pet is unique, with their own personality and routine, and I care for them with warmth, responsibility, and attention to detail. ✨ Here’s what I offer: 🔹 Fun, safe walks tailored to your pet’s age and energy 🔹 Drop-in home visits for feeding, playtime, cleaning, and cuddles 🔹 Following specific instructions for food, meds, or training 🔹 Photo and message updates, so you always know how your pet’s doing.

Maria was great! She took on the job short notice which was so appreciated. She took great care of Draco and kept me up to date with messages and pictures.
It was my first time using Maria to watch my baby. She did an Excellent job and kept me updated daily. It was a last minute request and she handled it perfectly. Would definitely hire again
Maria was absolutely wonderful with our guy! She kept us updated, communicated so thoughtfully, and took such loving care of our pup and home. We feel so lucky to have had her and will definitely be calling on her again in the future.
Maria was excellent! Very kind and patient and adaptable to our constantly changing schedules. Very patient with our dog and sent plenty of updates on her status with pictures and videos. Amazing!
Maria is just amazing! She genuinely will love and take care of your pet as if it’s her own! As a fur mom my dog’s well being and comfort is always a priority. We were able to provide this for my fur baby thanks to Maria. Definitely recommend her as a pet caregiver! ♥️💯
Maria took amazing care of my dog who can be quite the handful. She was respectful of our home too and ensured that my dog didnt access anything he shouldn't. She sent regular updates and pictures of our dog having a great time!

Safety, trust & environment
✨ Here’s what I offer: 🔹 Fun, safe walks tailored to your pet’s age and energy 🔹 Drop-in home visits for feeding, playtime, cleaning, and cuddles 🔹 Following specific instructions for food, meds, or training 🔹 Photo and message updates, so you always know how your pet’s doing 💬 I don’t typically offer overnight stays at clients’ homes, but I’m open to special arrangements with prior agreement. My goal is to provide loving, reliable care as if your pet were part of my own family! 🐾
A typical day
I love spending time with pets and making sure they feel happy and comfortable while their owners are away. I enjoy going on walks, playing with toys (especially if they have a favorite one!), and giving them lots of love and attention. Whether it’s a quick visit or a longer hangout, I always try to make it fun and relaxing for them—like a mini vacation. I can also adjust to each pet’s personality, whether they’re super playful or just love cuddles and quiet time.
