Loving and patient dog care

Pet care experience

I have experience with anxious dogs, especially puppy mill dogs. I adopted a puppy mill dog over a year ago and helped her overcome anxiety and fear related to people, new places, handling, grooming, leash walking, loud noises, etc. I also have experience with dog socialization and basic dog training in addition to basic dog care like feeding, bathing, grooming, administration of medication, etc. I’d be very patient, caring and understanding of your dog’s needs and will provide the best care possible.

I am so happy found Maria for walking my dog Stella. While Stella is An Addisonian dog who is very sensitive and gets stressed very easy, Maria was very assuring that she would take care of her ;she was extremely patient and willing to help stella become comfortable. Maria is very attentive to any requests and was very flexible to any changing in scheduling and other needs that came up ,She is prompt with replies and which made communication easy and painless. I will definitely continue using her for my dog walking needs and would recommend her.

Maria was wonderful with our boy Chikoo. He stayed with her for a night and had a good time with Maria and her pup Percy. Maria was very gentle with Chikoo and ensured that he feels comfortable. She was responsive, and shared timely updates.

Information Maria N. would like to know about your pet

Let me know your dog’s special needs, behaviours and routines ahead of time. I’d need to know the details of any medications and their administration if your dog requires them.

A typical day

I would love to stimulate your dog physically and mentally. We will go for a few walks, smell different scents, play in the park. At home, we will follow your regular routine as much as possible. We will play with toys, indoor games and puzzles, As rest is a very important part of the day, I’ll make sure that naps are factored in to avoid overstimulation. At night we will wind down with some soothing music, back scratches to belly rubs before heading to bed.
