Information Maria K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any preferences or behavioral triggers that I should be aware of ahead of time so that we can have a smooth and enjoyable time together!

A typical day

I can take your dog out for long walks (or runs if you prefer) around the neighborhood and even take them to the dog park if you prefer. I can also provide many many many pets and belly scratches and fun photos during our time together.

Your pup’s new pal! :D

Pet care experience

I have grown up with dogs at home and have a ton of experience caring for them. I have been living in Fitler Square since graduating Haverford College in 2022 and am a student at Penn Dental. I LOVE animals but can not own one of my own at this time so I have loved making furry friends in the area!

Maria always takes good care of Carson. She’s always on time for their walks and I know my dog is in good hands with her. Thanks again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
