Super flexible, and loves dog parks

Pet care experience

I've always taken care of everyone's pet when they go out, or on vacations. Big or small they all are equal in my heart and I adore them equally!

Best dog walker on Rover! She is my go to on this app and she truly loves my pup like her own. I’m always at peace knowing that my baby is in good hands. 12/10 would recommend her!

Maria has done a great job taking care of my one year old puppy. He seemed really comfortable and happy staying with Maria. Maria also has done a great job of providing pictures throughout the day. I will definitely rebook her in the future.

Maria was so great with our 9 month old puppy, Maggie! We just adopted our puppy and were worried about finding boarding while we went away for the holiday weekend for a wedding. Maria was a godsend, taking Maggie to the dog park everyday and sharing photo updates via Rover.com daily. She also gave us tips on what dog supplies to get and what dog parks to go to! We'll definitely look to use Maria again, and we can't recommend her enough!

I have 2 homes, I live in an Pet Friendly apartment closer to work in Alexandria,VA. I also have a home in Falls Church. I have 3/4 pets, but they do not live with me, they are all at their grandparents because the grandparents would be devastated if we took them with us! Mostly I love to work from home in both locations. Although, there is a very lovely park(s) nearby my Alexandria location where I take my puppies and my friends/coworker puppies whenever i petsit them. I also go on hikes with all the puppies, there's also old town alexandria where i love to take them. I have many bowls for pets that has completely taken a whole cabinet. I also am use to house training many of my relatives/ coworkers/ family friend's pets. Energetic, loud, or calm and quiet I've dealt with it all! I'm just excited to take care of the next adorable pupper!

Ever since I got my very first puppy at a very young age I was raised to love and take care of my puppies the same way I would a baby!I have 3/4 puppies of my own. I say "of my own" only because one of them is a very loving pitbull mix who's owner is my loving boyfriends. Although he's the owner I love her as if she's my own.
