Pet care experience

Pawsitive Vibes 🐾 Reliable Care 🐶

My house (and my life) is full of furry babies - two cats and a dog that I adopted and adore, and I’m usually the favorite aunt to many in my family. I have patience with animals that I sometimes won’t have with people :) they just awaken that sweet side of me. I have worked and volunteered at animal shelters and did private sitting for clients. I am familiar with most breeds and behaviors as well as most common medical emergencies and needs. I have experience in canine behavior, and I can be extremely patient with shy or somewhat aggressive dogs and cats. I don’t stress easily, and I’m very resourceful if needed. I value your trust deeply, and I will care for your babies like I care for mine 💜

Thank you Maria for taking care of our 2 dogs!!! She checked in and has stayed in our home and left everything perfectly clean. We received regular updates and photos, which gave us complete peace of mind. Bo and Maverick love spending time with her and will absolutely book with her again!

Maria looked after our pups for a day and whenever she sent us photo updates, I swear our dogs looked so happy in her company. I could tell they just loved her. Will definitely use her services again if needed! Thank you Maria!

Maria had been taking care of my pitbull Mizu and my English bulldog Kazu for past 2 years . When I went on my vacation for two weeks. She come to my place and stay with them. She is a heartwarming person. Love animals and wonderful to work with. Trustworthy, honest ,caring, know how to handle the dogs. I am so lucky to have her help with my dogs , so I can be worry free on my vacations.

Maria absolutely has a gift for animals, she's patient, doesn't mind chaos, or mess. She loves animals and they love her. It's like they sense her calm and friendly spirit and they are drawn to her. Our pup loves her and know he's safe and well taken care of with her, he almost forgets us when we're there :)

Maria takes care of Nala, my 4 year old goldendoodle, anytime I’m going out of town or just need Nala to be watched if I’m too busy with work. I don’t think I could trust anyone else more with Nala. The peace of mind I get is priceless to me. I don’t have to worry if she is good hands because I know she will be taken care of physically and emotionally and get all needs taken care of. Maria has also a wealth of knowledge about how to take care of dogs and I highly recommend her.

I’d like to know if your dog is ok with other dogs, cats, children or other pets. It is also very important to know if they’re ok with car rides and if they are sensitive to loud sounds and vibrations. Also, if they have any special medical conditions, food restrictions and such. I try to stick to their normal routine as much as possible, so I will need to know ahead of time about feeding times, potty breaks and/or any other useful information.
