I love walking/light jogging. Seeing a dog enjoying a walk makes me so happy! Reducing a pets stress when their owner is out of town is important!

You can’t really do better than Maria when it comes to pet care. She takes wonderful care of her pug/beagle mix. She used to be a vet tech and is a licensed animal physical therapist. Animals gravitate towards her because they can tell how much she loves them. She is responsible and reliable, too.

Maria is a perfect pet caretaker. She is highly empathetic and intuitive, but also has technical training and experience as a vet tech and a veterinary (and human) physical therapist.

Let me know if your pet has any special needs, allergies, triggers, etc I am comfortable walking bigger dogs. I believe in positive reinforcement and treat rewards :)
