Dog and Cat lover!

Pet care experience

I have loved animals my entire life! ❤️Growing up with dogs, rabbits, and hamsters, and now sharing my home with two sweet cats, I’ve always felt a special bond with them. I have been volunteering at a cat rescue for about 4 years and that has only deepened my dedication to helping animals in need. With 8 years of experience caring for other people’s pets, I am detail-oriented and genuinely care about each animal I meet. 🤗 I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I’ve been there, looking for the perfect pet sitter to care for my own, and I understand the peace of mind that comes with knowing your pets are in good hands. Whether it's taking your dog for walks, giving them plenty of playtime and affection, or administering medication, I’m here to ensure they get all the care they need. I treat every cat and dog as if they were my own, offering them the same love, attention, and care. You can rest easy knowing your furry family members are in safe, loving hands! 🥰

Maria is such a kind person. She made sure to keep me informed before during and after each visit. She provided our spoiled cat child with such attentive care. 😻 We will definitely continue using Maria’s pet caring service…

Maria is our favorite sitter for our kitties! They always have a great time with her, she spends plenty of quality time with them each visit. She’s wonderful about asking quick questions to be sure she understands our preferences and instructions. She’s even been kind enough to bring packages inside for us, and always has great photos to share of our boys!
