Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I am committed to precisely following your instructions to ensure your pet's safely and comfort while in your home. As a veterinary medicine student, I am highly experienced in safe animal handling and attentive care allowing me to recognise and respond appropriately to your pet's needs, giving you peace of mind while you are away.
Information Maria I. would like to know about your pet
I have experience working with nervous / easily agitated dogs, so just let me know if your dog falls into this category or anything specific requirements I should be aware of before meeting your dog so I can be fully prepared
A typical day
I can keep your pet occupied for hours, playing together with their toys and taking your dog on engaging walks down paths or along the beach! Since I am young and go to the gym, I can withstand long, intense exercise if that's something your dog enjoys / requires. I can ensure your pets will be kept entertained, exercised and happy!

Vet Med student who loves animals
Pet care experience
I am a veterinary medicine student at the University of Edinburgh who has gained experience in almost every animal species! I have worked at 4 vet clinics, kennels and catteries. At Uni, I have been taught the correct animal handling techniques and the body language presented when animals express different emotions. At home, I have grown up with pets my whole life. Due to my expansive experience, I can ensure your pet will be cared for in the safest way possible as if they were my own!
Reviews
Maria did a fantastic job looking after our cat Pickles. We hate leaving her as she gets anxious and is nervous around people. Maria looked after her very well and sent photos after each visit We returned to a very content happy cat. I have no hesitation in recommending Maria. Paul & Karyn




I was away on holiday for ten days and left my four beloved cats in Maria’s care — and I honestly couldn’t have asked for anyone better. Maria did an absolutely amazing job. All my cats were calm, happy, and clearly well cared for when I returned. She followed every instruction with such attention and love, and even went the extra mile by watering the flowers in my front garden, which was such a thoughtful and kind gesture. Knowing Maria was looking after everything gave me real peace of mind while I was away. She’s incredibly reliable, caring, and dedicated — I wholeheartedly recommend her. Thank you so much, Maria!
Maria has cared for my dog on multiple occasions, and it’s clear she’s a responsible, loving, and trustworthy girl with a natural ability to connect with dogs. My dog, who is energetic and sometimes unpredictable, always returned from their walks calm and well-exercised. Maria took the time to understand his needs, ensuring he received the right amount of exercise and care. She also showed great attention to detail, keeping me updated with regular check-ins and being responsive to any questions I had. Can’t recommend her enough
