Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to take care of them at their owners' home so they don't leave their environment and feel safe. I talk to them a lot, I play with them. If they are sick I take care of their medication and feeding schedules. I adjust to the indications of their owners.

Maria took very good care of everything for Zōe and the house. She’s very pleasant and sweet and we would have her back anytime. Zöe took an instant liking to Maria and that was great.

Maria did a wonderful job watching our Siberian husky, Ledi, for 5 days. Maria was very caring for Ledi. She did her best to give Ledi as normal an experience as possible while we were away. We had some issues in our house with our electrical system and Maria went with the flow and handled it like a champ. She’s exactly the kind of person to trust your soul dog with. She’s got a kind heart and deeply cares for animals.

Maria did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs and our home while we were on an extended family trip in Europe. We came home to happy pets, and a very tidy home. We would not hesitate to book her again!

Maria is amazing! She was so patient and accommodating with my fearful and reactive dog. My dog ended up loving her and I felt very comfortable that she was being well cared for when I was gone. Maria sent regular updates and took amazing care of the house, leaving it very clean. Definitely would recommend Maria for your dog sitting needs!

Schedule

I usually exercise in the morning so I can take them for a walk at that time. I also work from home with no fixed schedule, so I can always arrange to take them out for a walk during the day.
