Let me love your pets like my own!

I have been in the care taking industry for almost eight years. All forms of care taking from infantry, to pet care, to house care, to senior care. It's the most rewarding gig of my life. I rest easy knowing that people put their trust in me to take care of their beloved pets while they're away. I pride myself in making sure fur babies feel loved and know they are not separated from their loved ones for long. Let me help you by hiring me to show them all of the love!

House Sitting • Nov 10, 2025

Maria did a good job taking care of our home & three pets while we were away for the weekend with no troubles! Our flight was delayed coming back and she was flexible to stay later than expected.

Maria is a lifesaver. Truly. Needed last minute care, and she made it to our house within 30 minutes.

Maria is a lifesaver. I needed someone in an absolute pinch and she was over in less than half an hour. Maria is the best.

Maria watches after Pig and Lou every time we go out of town. No one we trust more than her with our sweet girls. Maria is the best!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I make my own schedule as I am a personal yoga instructor so I have open availability. I can make myself available to fit yours and your pets needs.

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

At home I have designated hours of play and attention time that I provide to my cat and two loving dogs. Room to move and time outside, multiple times a day, an intentional food routine and a huge heart for them. A tabby, a schnauzer, and German Shepard. All of which require very different types of love and affection. Having such a wide variety of animals to care for, I am often not prepared for any responsibility that your pet will require.

A typical day

We’ll go on nature walks, play fetch, cuddle during movie time, explore smells and new toys, practice tricks, and enjoy plenty of belly rubs and love.
