Pet care experience

Dog loving family

I enjoy spending time with all types of fur babies. Our morning and evening walks are a great way to start and end our days. Playing catch or tug of war is my favorite activity with my furry friends. My two teenagers also have lots of energy and love fur babies. Your dog will have lots of play time, love and belly rubs.

Maria was a great sitter for my pups. They got sick (no fault of hers) and she took excellent care of them and got them to the vet. She kept in great contact and consistent communication. Sent lots of pictures and videos!

I slept on it before posting this review because I could tell my dog did not have a good experience when I picked him up. When I board my dog with a sitter, I expect him to be with someone at all times unless otherwise discussed. I was told that my dog was left alone for about an hour but that while he was alone, the Alexa device went off a few times. Alexa sends notifications that the dog is barking every 30 minutes. So that would have been longer than an hour. It was his first time there and I offered a virtual meet and greet but was told it wasn’t necessary. However, I don’t believe there was a bed/place for my him to settle. I also got the sense that my dog got out the front door at least once based on something that was said when I picked him up, which terrifies me to think of how he might have run out in the street. Maria and her family seem very nice. And she has a lot of stellar reviews. So, I went back and forth on leaving one myself. Perhaps it’s personal preference. I like getting regular updates, knowing there are accommodations for my pet or being told to bring his stuff, and I think it’s imperative to check with the owner before leaving their pet home alone.

Maria took great care of my dogs. They take daily medication and she handled that with no problem. I got cute photo updates, which is always nice. The dogs came back to me relaxed, clean, and well-fed.

Maria was great at taking care of Coco! She gave me updates when I contacted her, and was very accommodating to our needs/schedule 😊

A typical day

Dog walks are the best way to start the day. We also do lots of catch and tug of war if they have lots of energy. Pet stimulation is important so trusting me to sit and walk your pet will include lots of playing, catching, and rubs. Depending on your pet’s temperament will depend on where our walks will happen.
