Pet care experience

Animal lover, extra mile goer

I've taken care of cats since 2013 when I rescued my first one, today I own and love 3 in our home. I've done petsitting for close acquaintances and neighbors. I spoil and give lots of love to pets whose family is temporarily away!

We returned again to happy, well-cared for cats who clearly missed Maria's attention and affection. Some of my favourite photos of our kitties have been taken by Maria, she really sees their unique purrsonalities. One of them has special medical needs and we know he's in very good hands with Maria. Thank you again.

Again our 2 cats were so well taken care of by Maria. We were away for quite a while and Maria’s visits were always on time with excellent communication on all the issues that came up. She brought them toys to try out and solved an ongoing finicky eater problem with the usual thoughtful and observant resourcefulness. The cats got plenty of companionship, playtime care and affection - and we had an stress-free time away. Highly recommend!

Our cats love to have Maria take care of them- one has recently been prescribed medication and we were so relieved to find Maria has considerable experience of this condition. As usual, updates were detailed and timely and the kitties received excellent care and lots of attention- thank you

Safety, trust & environment

I have three cats, two seniors and one "teenager". Your pet needs to be pet-friendly to stay at home, cat-friendly if it's a pupper. I'm stay-at-home so I have plenty of time to play, pet, feed and walk! My cats even go out a couple times a day to our fenced yard under supervision and so can your pet should you desire. Luxury! :D
