Availability

I currently have a remote work position that allows me to do my day job anywhere there is an internet connection, while being extremely flexible to things like take walks/attend appointments during the day. Animals are something I love that makes my life fuller so I thought this is a great way to make extra cash, get outside more, and hang out with cute pets.

Please let me know if your pet has specific triggers or behaviors to look out for. Happy to love on all dogs in their socialization journey, I just want to know what to expect beforehand!

A typical day

Dogs can be so unique, I really like to listen to what they like to do and how they like to play. Some love a big long walk and smelling everything in sight, and some will literally just want to play fetch till your arm falls off. I am happy to listen to what they want!

Maria is our go to sitter! Shes excellent with our babies and very communicative. We were very at ease with her taking care of our dog and cat while we were on vacation. Highly recommend!

This was my first time w Maria & I couldn’t have asked for more. She was kind, reliable, & a “cat-whisperer!” My kitty is a scaredy cat, but even at the meet & greet, Maria spotted her & wRen allowed her to approach & even took a treat from her. Maria sent me a short video of wRen purring loudly & allowing her to pet her during her visit. I’d be thrilled to have her back!
