Maria was kind and responsive, and my dog seemed to enjoy his time over there. I would definitely use her again :)

Maria was so kind and loving with my girl Spam! Lots of cute photos of their adventures together. Would love to have her sit Spam anytime.

Maria has looked after my pet a few times and she’s been amazing every time. She’s super caring with animals and you can tell she genuinely loves being around them. I always felt my pet was safe and well taken care of with her. She’s also really responsible and easy to communicate with. On top of that, she’s just a great person, kind, thoughtful, and very reliable.

Maria was absolutely wonderful with my 10-year-old cat. Anyone with a senior cat knows they can be set in their ways and wary of new people, so I was a little nervous about leaving him with a sitter. I had nothing to worry about. Maria was patient, gentle, and genuinely caring from the very first visit. By the time I came home, my cat was actually seeking her out for attention — something he rarely does with anyone outside the family. She sent me updates and photos that put my mind completely at ease while I was away. I could tell she truly loves animals, and it shows in how she treats them. I wouldn't trust my cat with just anyone, but Maria earned that trust quickly. Highly recommend her to any pet parent looking for someone reliable and loving.
