Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs since I was twelve. My family and I have two beautiful dogs. I take care of everything they need. Also, I worked in a veterinary clinic so I have experience with grooming, bathing handling difficult animals, administering medication and whatever needs that your dog might have. You just have to tell me and I will take care of it.

Maria did an excellent job over this past weekend of taking care of my five month old puppy. I needed a last-minute dog sitter and she responded to me fast and efficiently. she consistently kept me updated and made sure that my puppy was happy and safe and consistently made sure she played not only with other dogs but also with her family. I am very grateful for everything that she’s done for my puppy 10 out of 10 would recommend.

My Benji was in great hands! Maria took good care of him and treated him as if he were her own. She provided picture and video updates and she was very responsive. I would certainly book her again and would have no reservations recommending her to anyone who is looking for a sitter.

I have had Maria and her mom walk my baby 3 times now and i LOVE THEM! they are so kind and considerate to what i wanted for the walks and they were so accommodating with their schedules. If Maria couldn't make it, then her mom Edith would walk my dog, so it’s really a 2 in one!! Cant say enough kind words to how happy i am with the service. My go to ladies for sure!!
