Information Maria M. would like to know about your pet

I accept all breeds depending on their specific personalities and qualities after a successful meet & greet where I can learn about their specific needs, likes, dislikes and routines. The more information you give me, the better prepared I can be, so please be honest with me about any negative behaviors your pet may have. I do not accept bookings for pets who have a history of aggression that will put my own safety in jeopardy.

A typical day

Walks are provided in the general vicinity of each clients home. I always make sure to pick up after dogs, scoop litter and dispose of it, clean up any biological messes made in the home when I am there. Home visits include feeding, play time and medication administration if required. I take photos and videos of my time with your precious pets so you can rest easy knowing they're in loving, trustworthy and capable hands!

Pet care experience

Personalized care for each pet! I am certified in Pet first aid & CPR. I adore all animals. I've had a dog and cats in my life since the age of four. I love their unique personalities and innocent souls. I would love to provide your pet(s) with loving care while you're not there. I can't wait to meet you and your fur-baby so we can have a great time together whether it's for home visits while you're at work or away! I love to walk and play fetch or just snuggle and give belly rubs. I have experience caring for dogs and cats with disabilities such as being blind, deaf, hip dysplasia, arthritis, food allergies, epilepsy and requiring daily medication. I am patient, loving and enjoy playing ball and of course taking walks. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats (all girls).

Maria did a drop-in visit for our dog and cat and did an excellent job with them. Our pets can be shy with people they don’t know, but they both seemed immediately comfortable with Maria during our meet and greet. She checked in with us during her visit and sent many pictures, which we loved! Maria is a true professional and we would absolutely call on her again in the future!
