Availability
I work a hybrid schedule, but I’m home most days during the week and have a lot of flexibility—so your pup will have plenty of company, comfort, and care throughout the day! Whether they’re the type to nap nearby or need a little extra play and attention, I’m here to help them feel happy and at ease while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced yard and access to 20 beautiful acres—perfect for giving your pup plenty of exercise, sniffs, and adventure time! My schedule is flexible, which makes it easy for me to follow your pet’s usual routine and keep things feeling familiar and low-stress. Every part of my home is pet-friendly, so your dog will feel welcome wherever they go. I do have an indoor cat, so your pup will need to be cat-friendly. I also have chickens and goats, but no worries—I can keep them safely separated during your pet’s stay.

Information Maria S. would like to know about your pet
Once we’re booked, I’ll send you a quick form to fill out so I can get to know your pup’s needs and routine ahead of time. It covers things like what commands they know, what makes them nervous (like loud noises or being picked up), and their usual feeding schedule. The more I know up front, the better I can make their stay feel just like home!
A typical day
Every dog has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes them light up—whether it’s playtime, belly rubs, or just a cozy spot to nap. I’m all about tuning in to what your pup enjoys most and making sure they feel safe, seen, and happy while you’re away. Just let me know what helps them thrive!

Fur Kid Approved 🐶❤️
Pet care experience
Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I spent nearly a decade working as a vet tech, so I’m totally comfortable giving medications and supporting pets with special needs. My goal is to make your fur kid feel safe, seen, and as relaxed as possible while you’re away—whether that means sticking to their routine, giving extra belly rubs, or just being a calm, caring presence. ❤️
Reviews
Scout enjoyed his time being cared for by Maria!! Highly recommend!
Maria was the best sitter that I’ve booked thus far! My pup smiled the whole time she was with her and just over all seemed very well taken care of I appreciate this so much as this was the longest I’ve had to be away from her and it was such a good trip not having to worry thank you again!!!!
Maria was so sweet and made me feel so comfortable leaving my sweet Joey overnight. Great communication and updates with photos throughout his stay. I would recommend Maria to care for your best friends and will definitely be back! Joey can be a handful and Maria made me feel that he was so welcome! Thank you!!
This is the second time I've taken Lottie to María. Great job again. Frequent updates and Lottie seemed very happy. Would go to María again.
