Availability
Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make sure to structure my days so there’s time for feeding, walks, play, and lots of attention. When I’m staying in someone’s home, I adapt to the pet’s usual schedule whether that means early morning walks, regular meal times, or evening play sessions so they feel comfortable and cared for. For me, it’s not just about checking off tasks, but making sure the pet feels happy, safe, and loved every day.

Pet care experience
Hi fellow Pet Parents ! 🐈🐈⬛🐕✨ I’m Maria, a 28-year-old former veterinarian from Colombia. I’ve been working with animals since 2020, and I recently moved to Tampa from New York City to continue my studies and be closer to some of my family. I pride myself on being fun, nurturing, and dependable. I have a deep love for animals and enjoy music, art, nature, dancing, coffee, and connecting with people from different cultures. I previously volunteered at the ASPCA Community Shelter, and I’m currently doing some freelance pet sitter around the Tampa area. If my post resonates with you or you have any questions, I’d love to hear from you! Feel free to reach out, I’m happy to answer any questions and chat further. :)

Reviews
Maria is the sweetest person, especially when it comes to looking after people children and animals. She truly loves the responsibility of caring for children and animals. I would absolutely hire her. I have seen her go above and beyond for the children and animals that she is taking care of.
Maria was great with my two cats. They required special feeding times and food, Maria was very attentive to their needs. She also took great care of the apartment, kept it clean and tidy. Would certainly recommend her and looking forward to her help again in the future!
I highly recommend Maria as a pet sitter! She has taken excellent care of both dogs and cats, always with so much love, patience, and attention to detail. What makes her stand out even more is that she’s a professional veterinarian, which gave me total peace of mind knowing my pets were in the best hands. She is also very clean and organized, which makes everything easier and more comfortable for both pets and owners. Responsible, trustworthy, and truly passionate about animals.
