I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to go for walks, play, and provide attentive care to pets. I am available on weekdays and weekends, and I truly enjoy spending quality time with animals.

Pet care experience

I am a caring and reliable dog walker and pet sitter with experience caring for dogs of different sizes. I have had my own pets and have also cared for dogs in Canada. I enjoy creating a safe, calm, and positive environment for every dog, always following the owner’s instructions. Your dog will be treated with love, attention, and respect.

I highly recommend Maria as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. Maria is a veterinarian, and as a close friend, I’ve had the chance to personally see how much she loves and understands animals. She has a very special ability to connect with pets and care for them with patience, kindness, and genuine attention. I would completely trust her with any pet.

Pilar has been an amazing caregiver to our dog Dali. She is kind, flexible, and incredibly responsible, and it’s clear how much she genuinely loves dogs. She is always willing to help and goes above and beyond to make sure Dali is well cared for. We feel very lucky to have her support

Pilar has taken care of my dog Guinness during my long trips, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was amazing with her, attentive, loving, and clearly experienced. I never once worried about Guinness while she was with Pilar. Knowing that’s she was safe, happy, and well cared for gave me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their dog.

I have trusted Pilar to take care of my beloved lab-mix, many times. She is incredibly kind, patient, and experienced with animals, and as a veterinarian I have always trusted her to make responsible choices when caring for my dog.
