Hi! I'm Maria and I have had plenty of experience with many types of animals. I have personally had my own dogs for over 30 years ranging from German Shepherds, Salukis, and Chihuahuas. As well as many dogs, I have owned snakes, ferrets, birds and fish. I am a very loving sitter and I take pet care very seriously. Whatever your rules and desires for your pets safety and comfort, I am able to provide. I have had no bad, or scary situation arise with the pets I have sat for. I try very hard to acclimate your pet into my home, or if I'm in your home, make the little guy or gal feel happy, reassuring them, all will be ok. My typical day is getting up early and taking your dog out to the track down the street where he can run and play then home to breakfast. In the afternoon he/she gets another walk around my property. I work from home so I am able to provide complete and secure care.
