Pet care experience

Me and your dog will be bffs ♥️🐾

Hi there! I am a true believer that your dog/cat is not just a pet, they are family and should be treated as such! I am a dog lover and dedicated proud dog mom. I grew up with dogs, ever since I was 7 years old, I also volunteer and donate to a Rescue Shelter in Ecuador. I’ve rescued 7 dogs in total, all of my doggies are rescues! I currently have a little Mutt from Ecuador and an adorable cattle dog 🐶. I make sure they eat healthy, I bake them healthy treats, and my non-negociable is their daily walk. I know that you’ll be trusting me with a very special being in your life and I intend to provide the best care possible and lots of love 💕

Maria was amazing! A true dog lover! She is very sweet. She took great care of our Logan with continuous communication and pictures. You should definitely book her as will I the next time I travel. Thank you Maria for taken such good care of our boy!

Pia was amazing!! Updates were sent often by her during my three weeks away and I’m so happy that my sweet doggie had her to take care of him. I would highly recommend Pia to anyone interested in using her as a dog sitter ♥️

Maria was amazing! My dog got sick while she was looking after him and she helped with giving medications, diet changes, and plenty of attention.

A typical day

I love to stimulate a dog physically and mentally, we will go on walks and if your dog is high level energy we can always go out for a run. I always bring treats and water with me to stimulate a little bit of training and to keep your doggie hydrated
