Safety, trust & environment

I make sure they are in a safe environment with toys laid out so they can play. I like to give them treats after a walk or after doing a trick! I've cooked for dogs, boiling chicken or eggs. I am happy to cook for your pet if needed or will stick to their pet food! I love to give plenty of cuddles and care!

Information Maria K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet needs any special treatment or medicine, I've taken care of injured pets, broken leg or breathing problems, so I am happy to make sure your pet is comfortable and well cared for!

A typical day

I am an active person, I love to play and walk with dogs! Whether is it a long run, tug-a-rope or fetch, you can find me and my new furry friend playing. I also love dog cuddles, so if your dog needs to relax, I can ensure they will have plenty of belly rubs and ear scratches!

Pet care experience

I've dogsat for over 10 years. As an animal lover, I like to think of myself as a dog whisperer. You can ensure your pet will be well fed, picked up after, played with and filled with love. If your dog is active, I love dogwalking on long paths. I've sat small dogs like toy poodles to large dogs like akitas. I also cat sit, I've taken care of three cats at a time. I cannot wait for the opportunity to sit your lovely pet!

I can’t thank Maria K. enough for her kindess & sincere love and care of my dog this past weekend. Even though it was a pretty last minute request on rover, she went above and beyond to meet with me and my dog ahead of her appointment to house sit. She took the time to find out her feedings, routine and even walked around the neighborhood with me to check out the surroundings. During her housesitting, she also sent adorable photos of her having fun with our dog. She is very warm, personable and just did an outstanding job with our dog. I trusted her wholeheartedly in our home & would highly recommend her to anyone seeking her services. It was my very first time using rover & the bar was set extremely HIGH, I will be her repeat customer for sure!!

Maria is absolutely the best pet caregiver I have ever seen. She has been caring for my fur baby for over 10 years and I would not trust anyone else with my precious baby. Maria loves all animals and it shows. I feel very lucky to have Maria as my go to person whenever needed. She is highly recommend! My dog, Roxie, gets so excited when we get close to Maria‘s house… It’s just adorable!!! ❤️
