Your furbaby is my furbaby!

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Maria. I've been working with animals for 8 years now professionally. Besides Rover, I've worked at a dog daycare and boarding facility and 24/7 animal specialty hospitals focusing in surgery and emergency. I have experience with exotics and reptiles as well. I've recently changed careers but still love to care for all types of animals and be there for you when you're away from your baby! Please note: I am unable to commit to reoccurring weekly visits/drop ins due to my schedule/lifestyle but please reach out if you ever need a last minute hand or backup for occasional dates. If I am available, I’ll be happy to help! Thank you!

We're so happy that we found Maria to dog-sit / house-sit! She was super responsive and easy to communicate with from the start, answering questions and coordinating a time to meet before booking. Ruby warmed right up to her instantly — it's clear that Maria is a dog person. We hadn't ever had someone stay at our house with Ruby while we're out of town, but felt super comfortable leaving everything in Maria's hands. She sent tons of pics throughout the stay and of course left the house in perfect condition. Can't wait to book Maria again in the future! So grateful to have such a reliable local resource :)

We can always count on Maria to take care of our 2 cats while we’re away. This is our third time with her and we trust her completely, she has done an amazing job every time! A bonus is she sends the best pictures of your pets while you’re away - which we really appreciate since we miss them so much! Thank you Maria!

This was our first time leaving our 7 month old puppy overnight. We are so very thankful we found Maria! She is very responsive and punctual. She let me know when she arrived and sent multiple pictures which made me so happy. I didn’t have any stress or worries leaving my puppy with her! We couldn’t have asked for a better first overnight stay, so thank you once again Maria!! Nash can’t wait to see you again 😀
