Passionate Pet Lover

Pet care experience

Since I was a young girl, animals have had a special place in my heart. Our family's Basset Hound, who was so playful and kind, taught me from a young age what it meant to love and care for an animal. She faced several health challenges as she aged, which gave me experience in caring for elderly and ill pets by providing them with the nurturing support they need. Now, my home is shared with two lively Pomeranian/Husky mix boys. Their energy and unique personalities bring me endless joy each day. During my time in school, I had the opportunity to care for a very playful Ragdoll kitten, which deepened my understanding of cats and their needs. Through pet sitting for friends and family, I've had the pleasure of looking after various dog breeds, such as Golden Retrievers, Coton de Tulears, German Shepherds, and an American Shorthair cat. Regardless of the species or age, I cherish every moment spent with animals and have a passion for caring for their happiness and well-being.

Maria and my 58 1b. pup were immediate friends! Maria is quite comfortable handling energetic large dogs and her affection for pets is obvious. She is punctual and attentive to follow through with the training I initiated with my furry girl. We look forward to seeing her again!

Maria is the most genuine, caring person you will ever meet, and you can tell how much she adores animals. I feel so calm when she watches my cats knowing that they are in such good hands. There is no one else I would trust to watch my babies.

When I first adopted my dog, he was very skittish and had a lot of health issues. Unfortunately, his prior owners did not take good care of him and I, much like little Milo, had trust issues with people who interacted with him. It was not an easy decision to decide on a dog walker. And I needed to see that the dog walker I hired was one would could be compassionate, empathetic, but most importantly, had a true love for dogs. Maria was the kindest and most loving dog walker I have seen and she cared for Milo as if he was her own. Not only did she teach him new tricks, but in the end, they formed a deep connection that I know Milo truly cherishes. I could not recommend someone greater and more qualified for the job than Maria. I'm confident that she will show the same compassion and love she did to my dog as everyone else's.
