Pet care experience
Hello, do you have a busy weekend and your fur baby needs a doggie sitter? Working late and fur baby needs his/her exercises? Have a weekend getaway and you don’t want to leave your fur baby at a crowded kennel? Well, reach out to me. I’m a 52 year old attentive and caring dog lover, married and have two sons, one older son living at home! I have always loved dogs, I have a 4 year old Australian Cattle Dog named Shadow who is friendly, enjoys playing with other dogs and a huge people person. Her name fits her perfectly, she follows me everywhere in the house, except when I turn the shower on, than she hides as she thinks it’s bath time for her :-).. I take her on hikes almost daily, so she’s very active! She just loves to run up the hills and chase squirrels. I also work from home full time, so I will always be around and not leave dogs home all by itself for hours, since I do work from home and on conference calls daily, I would not be able to take dogs on the weekdays that bark constantly, but on the weekends, not a problem. We live in Somerville, a short distance from the dog park and a great area to walk dogs. I've grown up with dogs all my life, had a German Shepherd for over 10 years and a Chinese Shar-Pei for over 4 years.
Reviews
Maria was wonderful! So attentive and took Rufio on a lot of outings. Shadow is also a very sweet and a playful host dog — thank you both!
Maria and her dog Shadow are so friendly and great to leave our dog with. Responsible, lots of pictures, good exercise. Highly recommended
Maria does a great job; she has sat for my dog many times. Highly recommended.
Great as usual!

Information Maria R. would like to know about your pet
As long as they are friendly and playful with other dogs. Due to working from home and on calls, can’t have a barker!
A typical day
Depending on weather, I usually take my dog on hikes everyday or the dog park. Our backyard is pretty spacious too so the dogs will always have room to run around!
