Safety, trust & environment

Their safety is paramount. I never let a dog out free in the yard, they're ALWAYS on leash with me. I follow owner's rules & give nutrition & treats brought from home. Bedtime is sleeping in their crate, or their bed or on MY bed, whatever they like to assure that they're kept calm, reassured & safe throughout the night. Can't wait to meet your fur baby! 🐶

Information Maria M. would like to know about your pet

I need a complete dog profile with photos! A recent BATH or GROOMING will be greatly appreciated! It's also a plus if they are PAPER TRAINED.

A typical day

I make sure my furry clients have fun when they're with me. We play games with toys and practice tricks for treats, IF they want to. They love to play "Sniff & Find" games to stimulate their brain. They go out for puppy breaks every 4 hours, or as needed.

For half my life I've spent caring for precious pooches. 🐶🐕🐩 Pups can instantly sense that I truly love them & they feel at home right away. 🥰 While your pup is with me, they're treated like Royalty!👑 I specialize in caring for SENIORS.👴👵

Maria was the sweetest sitter for my Kiwi girl! This is my first time on rover and I had such a great first experience! She updated me with texts and pictures so that kept me at ease. I’ll definitely be trusting her when I’m out of town from now on!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
