Pet care experience

Pets are the best. They are family!

Dogs are my passion! I'm a dog lover since a was super young (more than 15 years ago) and the good news I'm very flexible with my schedule. For new clients please feel free to use my code to get a Discount! --> MARIAM67914 If you have the chance to know me, you'll see I'm always thinking on any personal dog needs and make them happy (discovering their personalities is the best part as a dogsitter), I'm not only focus on covering the basic, I also give them a little hand to control some specific behaviors that can turn into an unhealthy situation. If your dog have an aggressive behavior, please let's do a meet and greet before booking to talk about it. Also, when I have the opportunity, I can help with some grooming as well (baths and nails, no hair cuts sorry). NOTE: Not accepting big dogs for boarding or daycare at my place, only small breeds under 20lb can stay. For big breeds I can offer visits to look after them while you're not at home (that will be less stressful for them also). Don't forget: Exercise, discipline and love is the key for happy dogs!

Took wonderful care of my pups! Sent pictures and videos, provided updates, and even gave me some training tips when I picked them up. You can tell she really cares and loves!

Schedule

Mornings are precious, normally the food is served around 7-9am, but before, a quick break to pee if need it. Afternoon is always full of opportunities, such as long walks, play time in the yard or even some trick teaching moment. Second meal is served around 6-8pm plus another mini break to pee and poop and finally a very comfy space and environment to sleep like a baby.

Pets

A typical day

I love dog parks, I think it's a beautiful experience for them to meet new smells and “pawners”. They can play a lot and of course plenty of space to run as much as they want (under supervisor of course).

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Takes only 1 client at a time
Maria Gabriela can host up to 1 pet per night
Walking in the morning is a great experience! Having a balance and healthy meal plus some cuddles and a couple of minutes to play is a perfect day
