Pet care experience

Patient & playful care for cats

I adopted my beloved cat Rudy in 2019, and I’ve been caring for him and other cats ever since. I am the go-to cat sitter for my friends and family, and I am excited to meet and care for your pet! I always prioritize patience and gentleness when getting to know a new cat, and I am more than willing to put in the work to earn your cat’s trust. I also prioritize play time in my cat-sitting to make sure your kitty stays energized and stimulated while you’re away. I look forward to caring for your beloved pet(s)!

Safety, trust & environment

I understand how much trust and care goes into finding someone to take care of your beloved pet while you’re away. My goals are to make sure that your cat feels safe and cared for, and that you can expect timely and clear communication for peace of mind. I aim to disrupt your pet’s routine as little as possible, so I appreciate when you leave detailed instructions about both caring for your cat and being in your space.

Maria was a wonderful cat sitter. She understood and followed the care instructions and was very sweet with my cat. I look forward to hiring her again when I need a cat sitter again.

I had a wonderful experience with Maria. She took excellent care of my cats while I was away and gave me such peace of mind throughout the entire time. She is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals.

Maria did an incredible job taking care of our two cats while we were out of town! She gave detailed updates after each visit and even had our shy cat running around during playtime while we were away :) 10/10 would recommend

Maria was very helpful with my older cat with a lot of meds and needs. She stayed in good communication with me about it the whole time

Schedule

I currently work remotely, which gives me flexibility to schedule visits throughout the day. I aim to update my calendar at least once a day to ensure you’re seeing the most accurate and current state of my availability.

Cats
Maria can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your cat has any special needs or behaviors that I can adapt to. I especially appreciate information about your cat’s meal routines. I have cared for cats of all different personalities, so I’d love to hear about your kitty’s personality, too!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
