Pet care experience

I LOVE DOGS SO MUCH! They make me happy and I make them happy! I treat them like if they were my own! I trained my own dog when I was only 16 years old! I potty trained her, and trained her to do so many tricks! I raised her like my own baby and everyone who meets her falls in love with her even animals. My Baby got her wings April 18, 2026. She was my everything. I will stay strong for her and continue to love and care for animals as much as she always did by my side. She was with me half of my life. My forever angel baby. Until our heavenly reunion my baby girl 🌈🦮🪽🐾✝️💖🤍 I have volunteered in many Dog shelters, in which I would walk dogs of all breeds! I fed them, gave them water, bathe them, and went on hiking trips with them, and so many other fun adventures together! I would walk up to two German Shepard dogs sometimes as well! My love and care for animals especially dogs, is unconditional and I bond with every dog I meet! I treat every single one of them with so much care and immense love!

Beyond grateful to Maria for walking my little Pi. After a recent move, I had been searching for someone to walk my (blind and deaf and sweet) small dog. Needless to say, I'm a bit protective. When Maria met Pi, I could tell that she would take great care of him. She seemed to completely understand that he loves affection as much as, if not even more than, the walk itself. She sent me absolutely stunning photos of him with her beautiful little neice- they had me crying at my desk! I'm so excited to have found someone I trust to watch Pi. Thank you, Maria!

Maria! Thank you so much. I had such a wonderful experience with you, I immediately felt connected with you and trusted my cat in your care - in fact I don’t think she even noticed I was away! You did an amazing job I couldn’t have asked for anything better. Happy holidays!
