Active and home full time

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs. I love their loyalty and love they have for their pack. I'm an active person who is home full time, trying to finish my dissertation. I'm an attentive human and would love to babysit your family member . School is in session and things get pretty busy. I'll gladly take care of your four legged kid(s). I like to take long walks and I'll perhaps take advantage of the hiking trails at Blue Hills.I live in a spacious home that could benefit from hosting a dog friend from time to time . I'm also, and I'm not sure how this will come off as , a huge fan of the dog whisperer Cesar Milan . I am open to negotiation. Cheers!

Maria was great and we will definitely use her again! She was flexible with timing when our plans slightly changed and sent us updates and photos. Sisa seemed happy and well taken care of, which is always the best sign!

This was our first time with Maria, and not a positive experience. Maria already had a dog at her house who was kind of hostile to our black lab mix puppy (rescue), whose been socialized with dogs but is a little timid. The other dog was clearly stressed out and not into Caesar. Since the other owners were late and hadn't shown up, I just didn't feel comfortable leaving Caesar there. What sealed this decision was when the other dog kind of snapped/growled at Caesar and pulled back in fright thumped against a car. Maria had tried to take the dog for walk and leave Caesar alone, but this just didn't sit well with me since it was his first time meeting her & he's 17 weeks old and we haven't been leaving him alone for long periods of time. My suggestion is for her to not schedule dogs back back...give a larger window of time between pick up and drop offs.

Maria watched our dog for her very first overnight stay (3 nights)! Maria sent pictures and text updates a few times a day! Maria was very attentive to our dog especially knowing it was her first time away from us! It gave us such peace of mind while we were traveling knowing our pet was being well taking care of!!
