Highlights
Pet care experience
Furry Friends are my Favorite!
I have helped raise three kitties! I have additionally helped to raise a puppy who was a bit reactive and required additional training. While it was tough, it was very rewarding and I appreciate the way it helped me better communicate with my dog.
Cat care experience
Maria also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Qualifications
Pets
Safety, trust & environment
Currently, I care for my pets by providing weekly brushing, daily feeding, daily litter box cleaning/rotation, weekly litter deep cleans, and play time. For dogs, I am comfortable, feeding, walking with a harness, collar, as well as a gentle-leader for our more reactive friends. While doing home visits, I am comfortable and happy to supervise outdoor/backyard time. I love long walks and am comfortable with dogs up to 100 lbs.
Ratings and reviews
Mariah took wonderful care of Hazel and my two cats. She had great communication, sending lots of updates and photos, during her stay. Will definitely use again.
My pup is pretty shy, especially with new people but Mariah was great with her and kept me updated on how Ruby was doing (with lots of pictures!), throughout the stay. I will absolutely be asking her to stay with Ruby the next time I need a sitter.
Mariah did a great job taking care of my cats. She showed up at the requested time every day and followed all of my instructions perfectly. I also enjoyed her reports and photos. I will definitely hire her again.
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I am currently taking a very long break from corporate work, and would love to spend this year regrouping but doing one of my favorite things: Hanging out with and helping adorable animals! I am extremely flexible with my schedule, and willing to travel.

- Please be as honest as possible with me! I used to share a very reactive dog with my former partner, and am comfortable with more nervous dogs. I do like to come prepared though! No request is too silly, and pets are just like us- all SO different. Any and all information that can be provided to ensure I can keep your fur-baby happy and safe is always appreciated!
