Pet care experience
Compassionate pet care♥️
**note: I am unable to stay overnight at your residence. Hello!!! My name is Maria and I love caring for pets in and around my community in Philadelphia. I attached photos of reviews from my Wag profile. When I lived in Boston I was a trusted dog walker via wag where I did recurring walks and gained my own clients from 2019-2021. I did pet sitting, overnight care, and dog walking, and I miss my recurring pups so much! I am so excited to get back into taking care of animals here in the Philly area! My cats are equivalent to human children to me, so I will treat your pets the same! My daughter Cherry (feline daughter) is very shy so I am familiar with caring for animals who may be testy or nervous.

Safety, trust & environment
However an owner wants me to care for their pet, I do it. I closely follow rules, respect boundaries, and take criticism. I am so open and I love to be accountable so that you’ll trust me with your pet. I am so protective of my cats and will treat your pets the same. Pets are our lifeline and will be treated as such!
Ratings and reviews
Always amazing with our spicy kitty!! Highly recommend :)
Maria was amazing with Tobu. She was reliable, communicative, and made me feel really comfortable while I was away. She sent great updates, photos, and videos during each visit, and it was clear Tobu warmed up to her quickly. He’s usually shy with new people, so seeing him playing, purring, and comfortable with her made me really happy. She also followed the feeding instructions and handled everything smoothly. I’d definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter.
Maria is the best sitter in the area! I went out of the country for 4 days and she took care of my cat Chai just like I would have. This is my first pet in life that I adopted 3 months ago and I was am a semi anxious new cat mom! During the initial meet, Maria and Chai clicked instantly! Maria kept me updated with videos and chats and pictures. In addition, she was always timely! I was a little jealous while away because Chai was doing more (like eating a treat from her hand) with Maria than I have ever seen her do in my three months lol- so I learned some good tips from Maria. She did eat a treat from my hand when I got back- Thanks! Anytime I go away, I am surely booking Maria!
Maria is our go-to for drop in visits for our kitty, Rafi. She’s an excellent communicator and very reliable. We highly recommend!
Maria did a fantastic job taking care of our kitty! From the moment she came by for a meet-and-greet, I knew she would be a great sitter. Our cat is very friendly, but can sometimes be wary of strangers. Not so with Maria! She immediately ran up and started rubbing on her like she already liked her. Maria sent us detailed updates every day that we were away and made sure our kitty had everything she needed. We will definitely be booking her again the next time we're out of town. 😻
maria is our favorite sitter! excellent communicator and takes such great care of my cat

Schedule
I currently work obscure hours which means I’m always available during normal human hours! My day job is from 1:30pm-midnight, 4 days a week. I work in television, it’s awesome, so I’m available early-ish during the day! I have a car so I can get around to your babies efficiently and I don’t mind animals in my car in case of emergency.
