Pet care experience
I have been taking care of animals since I was ten years old. I started pet sitting in high school and have been relied on by friends and family when they need someone to care for their loved ones. I am studying to become a zookeeper (sitting is why I decided to pursue this career). I worked at an adoption center that housed different breeds of puppies. I was responsible for cleaning up after them, feeding them, giving them their medication and vaccines, and ensuring they were ready to go to their forever homes.
Reviews
Maria is an amazing communicator. She provided me with frequent updates and photos of my dog during his 6-day boarding stay. Her neighbors had plenty of green spaces. I would definitely rebook with her.
Maria was a last minute booking and I couldn’t be happier with the care she showed my fur baby - Preston. She was communicative, thorough and attentive the entire way through. I felt very comfortable leaving Preston under Maria’s care, so much so that I have rebooked her for another last minute trip a week later. Thank you Maria for opening your home and heart to Preston. It means a lot to me and Preston :)
As a coworker of Maria in an animal facility, I can confirm that she is an outstanding pet caregiver. She is passionate, efficient, hardworking, and committed to giving any and all creatures the best lives they can live. From exotics to domestics, she is a reliable individual who I would trust with my own pets.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment by myself. Currently, I have one pet, a cat. The apartment complex I live in has a pet park and pet spa and is near nature trails, so there are plenty of areas for walking. I live on the second floor.
Information Maria N. would like to know about your pet
For me to care for your pet property, I would love to know how your pet reacts to a new environment and if they are fearful of anything. Knowing what keeps them calm or things that could induce stress on them would be very helpful. I would like to know how your dog(s) walk on a leash so I can be prepared and not be surprised on our first walk together.
A typical day
There are many neighborhoods surrounding my apartment, and they have plenty of grass areas. I try to take dogs for at least 1-hour walks twice daily and will take them to the pet park at my apartment complex if needed.
