Mary Puppins - Adventure Seeker

Pet care experience

Hey there! My name is Maria! I was born and raised in Costa Rica, where I adopted, loved and cared for 10 rescue dogs, two cats, a bunny and two chickens. What can I say? I have been an animal lover all of my life. I live in BedStuy with my two favorite doggos: Indiana Jones & Lara Croft. Both large, friendly Malinoise Shepherds who love to run, hike, swim and play all day long. I have been an active volunteer at ASPCA walking dogs of different sizes, care needs, breeds, temperaments and exercise requirements. You can trust me to love and care for your fur babies as if they were my own.

Maria was so lovely and went above and beyond with sending us lots of content and updates. It’s clear she really cared about our cats and we will definitely be using her again !

Maria was BEYOND AMAZING! She sent me videos and updates and took such good care of my crazy cat Dino. She is so responsible and kind and went out of her way to let me know he was happy, fed well, and played with. I cannot recommend her enough!!!!

Maria took excellent care of both of our kitties. We got detailed reports and lots of pictures and videos which we appreciated a lot. On her first visit, one of them got sick and she kindly cleaned our rug and handled everything so that we could still enjoy our trip. We will definitely be booking her again for future trips, she was the best!

Maria was amazing looking after my cat while I was away. She sent daily videos of her eating and getting lots of love. She also took videos of the litter box and feeding areas once she cleaned up and was extremely response with any questions or requests I had. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

I love taking walks around the city with pups and I am a big advocate for proper dog etiquette, which means they will always be safely on a leash, or in an enclosed dog park, potty on the curb and picked up after properly.

I’d like to know your pet’s schedule and make sure we stick to regular walks/feeding times as well as any injuries, health or behavioral issues I should know about.

A typical day

My time goes into whatever your pets needs: walking, park days, litter clean up and lots of laser play. I am used to sending plenty of pics and videos so you know what they are up to!
