Pet care experience
As a medical student and avid pet lover, I hope to provide excellent, personalized care for your pet! I have many years of experience caring for animals of all shapes and sizes. I feel confident in my ability to watch, walk, feed, and play with your furry friends! Below is some of my most relevant experience: -I worked at a vet for three years where I interacted with lots of cats, dogs, and their owners. -Over the last 15 years, I have helped care for my pets (dogs, horses, cats, hedgehogs, rabbits, and more!) -My family owns a pet store & a vet, so I have close connections in the “animal world.” -I have been dog sitting for family, friends, and close clients for over 6 years, so I am familiar with the process. -I am a medical student, which requires me to be a compassionate and responsible individual.

About Maria M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Taking care of your pets will be best in your home where they are most comfortable. Depending on which service you choose, I can stop by, take them for walks, and give them lots of love, or I can stay over and hang with them during the day and night.
Information Maria M. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know the dog’s typical schedule, their dietary requirements, if they are friendly with people and other animals, and any of their fun quirks!
A typical day
Walks around the neighborhood are always fun, but if there is a park nearby, that is even better! Playing fetch and tug-of-war are two of my favorite games to play with dogs. I also enjoy doing tricks like sit, down, and rollover to keep their minds active and challenged.

Availability
I'm currently a fourth-year medical student with a relatively flexible schedule. Depending on the month, I'm either on completely virtual rotations and have unlimited time to play and walk pets, or I'm on a rotation where I'll be available after regular business hours to give your pets some love. I'm typically free on weekends, too!
