Pet care experience

I adore fur babies!

I’ve been asked to pet sit for a variety of pets over the years. Anywhere from cats and dogs to bearded dragons and horses! I’m a quick learner and can adapt just as fast to match whatever needs are required. I also own two mixed dogs and an orange tabby cat myself.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I love to let the critters set the pace when getting to know me. I believe there needs to be an established bond of trust before anything else. And I LOVE to love on them once they let me! I can never get enough pets and snuggles! I want them to feel as though I’m a friend and family member rather than a stranger. And the same goes for their human parents too! I love to connect with my clientele and keep them updated as much as possible to ensure they feel confident that their babies are taken care of :)

Maria was so wonderful to work with. Made a last-minute booking because family couldn't help with the dogs. She made time to come meet them in person with me before I left on our trip. One of my dogs got sick and she took the initiative to clean up. Will definitely rebook in the future. My dogs loved her.

Maria was amazing. We found her last minute and we’re so happy we did. She’s newer to Rover but definitely has experience with animals. We thought she was so professional and sent the most amazing updates!

Maria did an absolutely wonderful job watching my cats for several weekends this past year, I travel a lot for work and I never had to worry about if my babies were in good hands!

Maria has watched my elderly dog for the last two years. She's always dependable, showing up on time and making sure my dog is not just cared for, but well loved. She is my go to ask every time I'm going out of town or even if I just have a long work day. Maria never failed to make sure that my dog got her daily walks, outside time, and medications. I feel safe leaving home knowing that my dog is cared for by someone who clearly loves animals like they are her own.

I am a newly wed who recently moved into town and am still getting settled. Until I get connected with my work, I have a TON of free time! I’d love to get to be surrounded by fur babies as much as possible!

I would love to do meet and greets with the critters before booking! It is free of charge and I believe it is essential as a way to connect with both the pets and their parents.
