Safety, trust & environment

I am incredibly accustomed to the furry friend chaos. I’ve been dealing with the craziness of animals for a long time and have been very good in the best about shutting down any excessive behavior in a calm and cool manner.

Information Maria H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your animal has any special requirements I should be aware of. Specific behaviors they exhibit, areas I should avoid, areas they prefer, etc.

A typical day

I love to play with dogs and simply spend time with them if they are older or more calm than others. I’ll take them for walks, play with them, pet them, and overall just provide them with enrichment.

Pets

Owner away? I walk, sit, and stay.

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. I have been relied upon by family and friends to walk and feed their pets, for the most part multiple animals at once. I am currently a pre-veterinary student at UVM.

Maria was very dependable and took great care of our home and our leash-reactive city dog. She responded promptly to messages and assured us that all was going well. Our dog was relaxed and happy when we got home and the house was just as clean as we had left it. Fair rate and great service— highly recommend!

I really appreciated Maria being available on short notice to walk Poppy! She is timely and easy to work with. Poppy had a great time on her walks.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
