Availability
I work remotely from home, which allows me to have a flexible schedule to dedicate time to pet care. Since my apartment is located right in front of a large park with a designated dog area, I can easily take dogs out for walks, playtime, and exercise throughout the day. Whether it’s feeding, cuddling, or giving them attention, I make sure pets feel comfortable and cared for as part of my daily routine.

Safety, trust & environment
In my home, pets have a cozy and safe environment where they receive plenty of attention. With the park right in front of my building, they get regular walks, exercise, and playtime in a secure area. If I’m caring for pets in my client’s home, I ensure they stick to their usual routine, providing them with meals on time, walks, play sessions, and lots of love. My goal is to make every pet feel happy, stress-free, and well cared for.
Home
Information Maria G. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for a pet, I like to know their routine, temperament, and any special needs. Are they shy or very active? Do they have dietary restrictions, medications, or specific training cues? Also, understanding their favorite activities, fears (like loud noises), and how they interact with other pets helps me provide the best care possible. The more details, the better, so I can make them feel safe and at home
A typical day
I love keeping pets active and entertained! For dogs, I enjoy taking them on walks to the park right in front of my building, where they can run, play, and explore safely. We can also play fetch, tug-of-war, or enjoy interactive toys indoors. For cats, I engage them with fun toys, laser pointers, and plenty of cuddles if they enjoy affection. My goal is to make sure every pet has a great time while feeling comfortable and happy

Reviews
This was Callie’s second stay with Maria, and once again she was absolutely wonderful. Maria is incredibly caring and attentive, and she made sure Callie felt completely at home. We had total peace of mind knowing Callie was in such good hands. We highly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a reliable and loving cat sitter and we’ve already booked her again for our next trip!
Maria was a fantastic sitter who has cared for my cat very well! Very responsive and was accommodating! My cat seems to have enjoyed his stay and would definitely recommend Maria to care for your pet!
Maria was absolutely wonderful with our cat, Callie! She went above and beyond by picking Callie up from a previous sitter while we were away, after the sitter decided they could no longer watch her. Maria immediately made Callie feel comfortable and cared for. She kept us updated with excellent communication and sent adorable photo updates that gave us so much peace of mind while on vacation. We are so grateful for her kindness and professionalism, and we’ll definitely be booking with Maria again next time we travel. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, loving cat sitter! Thank you again, Maria!
She took very good care of my dog. She is an excellent dog sitter!!!
