I have lots of energy to play and walk your dogs. I love to snuggle pets but also give them the space they may need. I'm always aware and cautious about feeding them and keeping them hydrated.

Information Maria R. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special accommodations. I am very willing to learn how to administer injected medications if that is what your pet needs.

A typical day

I love to play and snuggle with dogs. We can go to the park, go on walks in the neighborhood, and even go explore a new place together!

Maria came through for us at the very last second and did a phenomenal job as a live in sitter with my 3 pups. I received daily updates and came home to happy, healthy dogs who weren’t traumatized by a long kennel stay. She took care of my home as well. 10/10 recommend this responsible and caring individual.

Maria went out of her way to help me in a last minute emergency and was pleasant, prompt and professional. I felt secure in leaving my pups under her care.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
