Pet care experience

Trustworthy and Experienced Sitter

Hi! My name is Maria, I’m 29 years old. I have a passion for taking care of children and animals. I’m a full time nanny just looking to make some extra money on the side pet-sitting. I live in a pet friendly apartment with my boyfriend Colin just outside Indianapolis. We both love animals and have 10+ years of pet care experience. I have the patience and understanding necessary to make your pet feel as comfortable and cared for as possible. I believe that animals should be just as comfortable with their sitters as their owners. While your pet is in our care, you will receive consistent updates and photos of them so you know they are having a great time and being well cared for! Whether it’s walks, potty visits, or drop in visits, I will be there to provide your pet with the upmost care. Please reach out to me today, I would love to do a meet & greet beforehand to make sure we’re a good fit!

Maria and her partner Colin are great! They were attentive, responsive, and present -- our dog has separation anxiety and they ensured one of them was always at home. They were very good at responding to messages as well.

Perfect! Maria's 2nd time doing drop ins for my kitties. She leaves detailed notes about visits and always takes the best pictures.
