Pet care experience

I rescued our first dog, Trigger, in 2012 with my husband. He came from an abusive and neglected household. He lived his best life with us, and I still miss him terribly. We then rescued our current dog, Zeus, in 2020. He is almost 5. I will make sure your pet gets all the attention and love they deserve!

Maria was amazing with Meekah and Cody while my husband and I were out of town—honestly, I think they miss her more than they missed us. Five-star walks, VIP belly rubs, and probably better snacks too!
