Trusty dog lover!

Pet care experience

Apart of owning 4 pups in my adult life I have also cared for other K9s for many years. In college I ran ATX Pups - a dog walking service in downtown Austin. Since then for the past decade I have cared for my friends and neighbors animals in addition to my regular 9-5 job. I have extensive experience with puppies, special needs dog, and even senior pups.

Safety, trust & environment

Every pup has different needs - I like to work with the owner to figure out what works best. I am open to working out a schedule that would work for them to be healthy and happy while you are away.

Information Maria K. would like to know about your pet

Any special needs, behaviors to watch out for, aversions (is there anything they are scared of?), or favorite hobbies. The more info the better. :)

A typical day

I typically go on longer walks with my pups or play a good long game of fetch. Daily exercise and human connection is so important for our pups to thrive. However, all dogs have different needs! Happy to take it easy with potty breaks or spend some time in the sunshine in a backyard.
