Safety, trust & environment

I ensure that I have an initial conversation prior to my arrival with new clients to ensure any specific needs are addressed and house rules are also followed. I also like to keep a documented list of the pet’s routine to reference back to, including feeding schedules and activity needs.

Maria has been great with Poppi! She takes him out a few times a week for us and he always happily goes along!

Maria has been a fantastic pet sitter on multiple occasions. Whether it’s been a quick drop-in or an overnight stay, my two dogs adore her. She follows all instructions carefully, and I can always trust her to take great care of them. I’m always at ease knowing she’s looking after them and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a reliable, loving pet sitter.

Maria is an excellent pet sitter! She has always been very thorough in understanding my cat's routine and any changes that I make. She makes sure to follow up if she has any questions and is proactive in thinking about my pet's needs. She is also very gentle and truly wants to give my cat a comfortable environment. I highly recommend her!

Schedule

I work remotely, so I have some flexibility walking during the week before 9am, sometimes around midday, and in the late afternoon times. On the weekends, I have more flexibility, especially if you’re looking for someone to walk or drop in if you’re out of town.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
