Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving your pet as much as you do!
I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs from age 8 and have had my own after moving from my childhood home. I am also part of a local rescue as a coordinator, and have fostered many dogs over the years. I have experience with dogs from all walks of life: puppies, adults, seniors, pregnant mommas, litters, medical/special/behaviour needs, low and high energy. You name it, I have experience with it! I am very passionate about caring and loving dogs, and I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend(s)!

Ratings and reviews
Maria is the BEST pet sitter! She is extremely accommodating when plans change last minute, and my dogs absolutely love her! Highly recommend 🤩🤩
Izzy was happy to see us when we came home, but she was sad to see Maria leave. Three days later, Maria had to stop in to pick up a couple of things she left and Izzy was beside herself with joy to see Maria again.
Maria was responds quickly and was really easy to talk to. It looked like our Lucky had a fun day with her outside, playing and napping. Thanks again Maria for taking good care of Lucky!
Maria was so easy to work with and she is very accommodating. She took very good care of Sophie and regularly sent me photos. Maria is friendly and kind and was very eager and excited to look after Sophie. I will book Maria again and I highly recommend her!
Maria boarded my dog for 3 nights and took perfect care of him. I got lots of pictures and updates while I was away which kept my mind at ease. He was a very sleepy and happy boy when I brought him home 🥰 Thanks Maria!
Maria has been fantastic to communicate and make arrangements with! We had a meet and greet at her house before eventually booking my dog in for day care. She was flexible with my pick up time which was super helpful and took the pressure off while I was out with friends. She also arranged to have another dog that day so my dog could have a play day. He was very happy and sleepy when I picked him up 🙂 I will book with Maria again!

Schedule
I currently work from home and spend most of the day at home, with the exception of going to the gym or running errands. I am able to let your pet out or go for walks all throughout the day whenever needed and provide any special care or even just company any time, every day of the week.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I am very flexible on any needs you or your pet may need. Personally, I like to be more laid back and let the dog tell me what they need. Because I work from home, I can let them out or go for walks whenever they need. For feedings, whichever works better for your dog works for me, whether that’s having meals only at certain times or all day free feeding. Bedtime wise, I am okay with whatever your pet is used to, such as their kennel, sleeping in the room on their bed or even cuddles in bed (size dependent). Whatever extra need or request you may have, just let me know and we can figure it all out!
A typical day
I take a very laid back approach to caring for pets. If they’re lower energy, most of the day can be pets, cuddles and lasting around the living room, and quick pee breaks/walks. If they have more energy, that’s when I’d add longer walks, playing catch outside or with toys inside, puzzle games, etc.
