Safety, trust & environment
In the client's home, I enjoy playing with pets using their favorite toys and following their specific feeding routines. Since I have a dog with allergies, I deeply understand how important it is to stick strictly to their own food and avoid unauthorized treats

Chilean Engineer & Rescue Mom🐾🇨🇱
Pet care experience
Hi there! I’m Maria, a Civil Engineer from Chile 🇨🇱 who recently moved to D.C. in January 2026. I moved here with my husband and our rescue dog, Simba, so I know exactly what it’s like to want the absolute best care for your furry family member! 🐕 Back home, I grew up with dogs and cared for my senior pup for over 17 years 🦴. Now, I’m focusing on perfecting my English here in D.C., which means I have a very flexible schedule! 🗓️ I only have classes Monday through Thursday from 10:30 AM to 12:30 PM. Outside of those hours, I am fully available for walks and drop-in visits. I love staying active and making sure dogs aren't just walking, but also having fun. I specialize in scent games and mental stimulation to help pups burn off energy 🧠💡. Whether your dog is a high-energy puppy or a rescue who needs a patient friend, I’m here to help. I promise to send plenty of photos and updates so you can have total peace of mind while you’re away! 📸✨

Reviews
Maria was great! Very responsive and thorough, the cats also loved her!
It feels good to leave your pet in the hands of a responsible, caring sitter. I returned to a clean home and a happy cat.
Maria was amazing! She sent updates, pictures, and Rocko looked so happy. We will definitely used her services again.
Maria was great with Milo and took the gig on very short notice! I’m sure we’ll use her again.
