A Friend To Furry Creatures

Pet care experience

I have been a pet owner (dogs, cat, fish) most of my life. Taking part in the training and care of my animals. I have been dog sitting since I was in high school, caring for the animals of neighbors and friends. And even for those that I'd been reccomended to. I love meeting new animals, learning their quirks, and making sure they're taken care of.

Maria was great! She took a last minute request which saved me. But my Bear really liked her and respected her. He can be grumpy if he doesn’t like your vibe but I never worried while Maria was with him. She managed him very well and I could tell he was happy(photos) even though he missed me. I am so grateful to her for taking care of my love. And taking the time to understand him. I will one hundred percent use her services again and I highly recommend her.

Great sitter. Cared for our house and dog very well and followed instructions as requested. Provided lots of pics to let us know how things were going. Will rebook again!

Maria stayed with my pups while I was out of town for a week. She was communicative and respectful of my home.

Maria has done a great job caring for my pups a couple times now. She communicates well and the dogs are always well cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

I try to be as respectful as possible of any environment I walk into. I like to check in with pet owners to be sure of how they would like their animal to be cared for, making sure all needs and preferences are met. I know I would want my dog to get the best care possible, and so I try to do the same for others.

Information Maria M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there is anything specific I should be aware of when interacting with your dog. I would like to know if they have any particular needs, as well as their likes and dislikes so that I can provide them with the best care possible!

A typical day

I will make sure your dogs will be able to get stimulation and get out the energy they need to through their walks and playtime!
