Availability
I work full time from home in a call center, so while I’m tied to my desk during the day, I’m available for early morning and evening walks for drop-ins. On Thursdays, my schedule is shorter (12:30–4:30 PM), and I’m fully available on weekends. Working from home allows me to keep a close eye on pets staying with me, giving them comfort and companionship throughout the day.

About Maria P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a clean, pet friendly, two bedroom apartment with a back patio and plenty of space for pets to relax. I take dogs on walks throughout my neighborhood for exercise and fresh air. The back patio is great for supervised outdoor time, but pets are never left outside unattended. I make sure each animal feels comfortable, safe, and cared for at all times.
Information Maria P. would like to know about your pet
It’s helpful to know your pet’s daily routine, energy level, and any special needs or quirks. Please share feeding times, medications, or triggers (like loud noises or other animals) so I can keep them safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.
A typical day
A typical day includes morning snuggles, feeding, and fresh water, followed by neighborhood walks or playtime. I work from home, so pets get plenty of attention and comfort throughout the day. In the evenings, we unwind with more play, cuddles, quiet time and a walk before bed.

Safe, Fun & Loving Pet Care
Pet care experience
Over the past four years, I’ve cared for both cats and dogs for friends and family. I regularly pet sit my best friend’s two senior cats who need extra attention and gentle care, as well as my brother in law’s energetic one year old puppy and cat. I’m comfortable handling pets of all ages and personalities, making sure each one feels loved and well cared for.
Cat care experience
Maria also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
We've had Maria look after our cats on two occasions now and she has done an excellent job each time!
Maria is so great to work with. It’s no wonder she has so many repeat clients in Rover!
Maria takes great care of both my dogs every time! She is always available when needed and extremely responsive. She also sends the cutest pics of the dogs when I’m away!
Maria takes great care of both of my dogs, and they can be a handful! She is reliable and I can tell from her frequent picture updates that my dogs really enjoy her!
