Information Maria D. would like to know about your pet

Let us know if they are completely house broken if they are potty trained if they have any fears or aggression. Or needs a dedicated private area free of stress or being reactive to other people or other dogs we love all dogs no matter the temperament or fears no matter how big or small, our home is equipped to be able to separate with gates and different levels and different rooms we prefer to meet the dog prior so we can know your dogs preferences and needs and wants.

A typical day

Depending on each case my dogs can be out playing with your dogs or completely separate. I like going on walks and sometimes dog parks or just go to a nice park and walk around. Also mental stimulation and puzzles and etc like shuffle Matt’s and slow feeders and etc.

A team for your furry babies

Pet care experience

Hi! I’m Maria, and caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s something I’ve dedicated years of my life to. I have over 10 years of hands on experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities. From energetic puppies to senior dogs who need a slower pace, I understand that every pet deserves care that’s tailored specifically to them. My partner and I work together as a team, which means your pets receive twice the attention, care, and reliability. Having two experienced animal lovers allows us to be flexible with scheduling and provide consistent, dependable care for your pets, whether you’re away for the day or an extended vacation. I offer: • Dog Walking • Drop-In Visits • House Sitting • Overnight Boarding • Puppy Care • Senior Dog Care • Medication Administration (if needed) • Lots of playtime, cuddles, enrichment, and exercise! I’ve cared for everything from tiny toy breeds to giant breeds, including dogs with anxiety, high energy, special routines, and unique personalities. I also have experience with cats and other household pets, so if your family includes more than just dogs, they’re in great hands too. When your pet stays with us or we care for them in your home, they’re treated like family. We stick to their normal routine as closely as possible because we know consistency helps pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether that means long walks, endless games of fetch, quiet cuddle time, or simply keeping them company, we adjust our care to what makes your pet happiest. As pet owners ourselves, we understand how difficult it can be to trust someone with a member of your family. That’s why communication is one of our top priorities. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is happy, loved, and well cared for. Our goal isn’t just to watch your pet. We want to become someone both you and your furry family member can trust for years to come. We’d love the opportunity to meet you and provide the same love, patience, and attention we give our own pets every single day. We can’t wait to meet your best friend! 🐾

Maria was great with our dog, Snickers. She was very responsive to messages and gave us daily updates on how he was doing while she was housesitting for us with Snickers

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.
