Hi, I’m Maria aka Masha - your pet’s new favorite person while you’re away! Whether you’ve got a goofy pup, a sassy cat, or a sweet senior pet, I’m here to take care of them. I offer personalized, in-home care that makes your pet feel safe, happy, and totally spoiled while you’re out. Here’s what you can count on when you book with me: ✔️ One-on-one attention – I take time to bond with your pet and learn what makes them feel most at ease. Whether it's tug-of-war, window watching, or cozy cuddles, I’m all in. ✔️ Mental & physical enrichment – I love engaging pets with play, affection, and a little stimulation to keep them sharp and smiling. ✔️ Senior pet TLC – I’m patient and experienced with older pets and happy to help with meds, slow strolls, or just being their gentle companion. I know how important it is to feel peace of mind when you leave your pet behind - and I’m here to provide exactly that. 𝗙𝗲𝗲𝗹 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝘁 𝘂𝗽 𝗮 𝗺𝗲𝗲𝘁-𝗮𝗻𝗱-𝗴𝗿𝗲𝗲𝘁!

Reviews
Maria took such good care of both my dogs! One is a senior and one is high energy so they have different needs and both were happy having Maria stay with them. Though not at all necessary, I think she even left our house cleaner than it was when she arrived. Maria was wonderful to take care of both my girls overnight for a few days in our house. She even sent a few photos each day - something I really looked forward to know everyone was happy!
Maria goes a wonderful job with our pets. Her communication is excellent and her sincere care for them is comforting while we are away. Maria is a gem and we are so happy to be able to rely on her!
Maria does a wonderful job caring for our home and animals while we’re away. She is conscientious and attentive to detail. We have a senior cat who takes medicine, a youthful exuberant extra large dog who wants lots of exercise and play time, and a new 10 week old kitten who extra needs care and supervision while being acclimated to her new home and other pets. Maria handled it all flawlessly, and we returned after 4 nights, 5 days to happy animals and an orderly tidy house. Maria is a very nice person and communication is always pleasant and easy. The only problem is that she’s so good she’s in high demand so sometimes she’s already booked. I consider myself very lucky when she’s available to pet sit for us! Bonus is that she’s a great photographer and sends us the most adorable pics of our pets. I highly recommend Maria.
Maria was professional, communicative and friendly. While I was away, she sent photos and updates of my pets but didn’t bombard me with unnecessary questions. When I returned home, I could tell my pets were well taken care of and the house was just as I left it, if not cleaner. I’d highly recommend Maria!
