Competent & Compassionate
Hi there! I am a lifelong dog owner and have been caring for others' pets for over 5 years. I have experience walking and doing in-home check-ins with both dogs and cats. I am comfortable with pets of all shapes and sizes. I have a flexible schedule and can generally handle multiple dogs at a time. If you hire me to take care of your dog, you can rest assured that they will be closely monitored, exercised, and most importantly, happy in my care.

Schedule
I currently work full time, but my schedule varies and there are multiple days during the week that I am available for walks and in-home visits.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsMaria can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
- I do not have breed preferences, but I do like to know some behavioral details, such as whether or not your dog is friendly toward other dogs, cats, people, or kids. It is also helpful to know if there are any other animals in the household that I should be aware of.
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.
