Pet care experience

Experienced, reliable pet sitter

I’ve been around animals for most of my life and am comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and a wide variety of other pets. I had a Golden Retriever for 14 years and lived with a French Bulldog for 3 years, so I understand both the responsibility of long-term pet ownership and how different each animal’s personality, routine, and needs can be. I have experience pet sitting in private homes, including overnight and extended stays, and have cared for dogs, cats, chickens, reptiles, rodents, and livestock. I’m very comfortable following detailed feeding, walking, medication, and household instructions. I work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to spend plenty of time with the pets in my care. I know how important communication is when you’re away, so I’m also happy to send regular photos, texts, and updates so you always know how your pets are doing. Most importantly, I try to keep each pet’s routine as normal as possible. Whether that means walks, playtime, cuddling on the couch, or simply giving a more independent pet some space, I adapt to what makes them happiest and most comfortable.Take advantage of my perhaps lower than market rate costs as I build my account and reputation!

Maria loves all types of pets. She is very caring and she loves being surrounded by them. She takes really good care of the pets as if they were her own and gives them all the love they deserve. I would have Maria take care of my pets at any time!

Maria absolutely loves animals, especially dogs and cats. It doesn’t matter the breed nor the size nor the age. She treats them like they’re her babies. We raised a golden retriever together for 14 years, and she cat sits and dog sits for friends and family whenever she gets the chance. She’s a natural.

In 6th grade Maria got a puppy which is what she wanted even though her Mother did not want a dog. Maria took that puppy and walked it, fed it and she did all of the cleaning and training. That dog grew up and lived a long life and passed away not too long ago of age. Maria is very responsible and I trust her in taking care of my dog which she has done through out the years. I would highly recommend Maria to take care of your dog!
