Dogs are our babies

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and I am used to being around them. I currently do not own one and I miss having a dog very much. Every dog my family has owned has been like my little brother/sister. I took them to the vet, fed them, played with them, assisted in potty training, showered them and gave them lots of love. I also helped get rid of the ticks my Corgi and Schnauzer got (twice each one). I am up for anything when it comes taking care of a dog. I work the typical 9am-5pm job, but after that and on weekends I am available anytime. If I need to dog sit at your house, I can request telework 2 days a week and be with your dog all day on the days I telework.

Maria has stayed at our house taking care of our dog several times, and has been absolutely terrific in every way. She is extremely conscientious and responsible -- for example, she never leaves the house without setting the burglar alarm. And she clearly loves Oliver -- during the latest heat wave, she was careful to walk him when or where it was cooler, such as later in the day or in the woods. She keeps us updated regularly with photos and funny captions, like "here is Oliver sunbathing and chewing a stick." We couldn't recommend her more highly.

Maria did a great job house sitting for our 2 elderly dogs. She was friendly, thorough and great with keeping us in touch with how the dogs were doing. Our dogs take multiple medications and require help with mobility. Maria had no problem at all following our complex directions and dealing with our elderly boys issues. Everyone was happy when we returned home.

Maria was awesome. Leaving our old dog for a few days is always a little worrying. But Maria sent frequent updates and put our minds at ease that our dog was happy and well cared for!! This is the first time I’ve used Rover and I definitely plan to have Maria house/dog sit again!!

Maria is a wonderful house- and dog-sitter. Our dog loves her and she's great with him. She keeps us informed of what's going on, and is very responsible. We couldn't recommend her more highly.
