Farm vacation for your dog
Pet care experience
Your dog(s) will be able to run around and go exploring on 2+ acres of my securely fenced yard or if they prefer to take long naps by the fireplace that can be arranged as well. Your dog's individual needs will come first. I work from home so I am able to monitor them all day/night long. I grew up with a variety of animals and I worked as a vet assistant for small and large animals in the past. Taking care of animals is my passion and I believe each animal senses that and immediately feels at home. I can watch your cat(s) or other exotics as well. Ideally, I would like to help others enjoy their time off knowing their pets are having a great time. If interested, we can set up a booking with a pet photographer.
Reviews
Maria is seriously the best dog sitter. Always my first choice ( and Django’s too!).
Maria is awesome with our cats jinx and Loki! Every time we go out of town she has been the person who takes care of them and we always come home to happy, healthy, well fed and excited cats.
We are so glad to have found Maria! Always our first choice. Our dog Django starts to do his happy whine when we are about a block away - he’s so excited!
Maria is amazing, she is very responsive and she always sends Live Photos and videos of our cats. We’ve had her watch them several times now and have always come home to happy and healthy cats.

Safety, trust & environment
My acreage is completely fenced in. The dogs are mainly in the backyard where I can watch them at all times when outside. Inside the dogs have access to all the main rooms. I have crates set up for dogs that like to use them. There are dog beds scattered throughout the first floor so dogs can chose where they want to hang out.

Information Maria S. would like to know about your pet
If you have a timid dog let me know so we can give him time and space to explore without feeling overwhelmed. If you have an older dog that is not very active please let me know so I can monitor that he/she does not overexert themselves.
A typical day
Your dog will enjoy running around the farm checking on all the farm animals and chasing squirrels. There are 3 miles of trails through the equestrian subdivision.
