Kind, Energetic Animal-Lover 4 Hire

Pet care experience

About me:: Hi there! First, thank you for checking out my profile. I am very passionate about animals especially dogs! I used to work for another friend's dog-sitting business a while ago and had fun caring for, and walking her client's dogs. That job also included caring for other pets such as cats, birds and even horses. I used to be a dog owner, but because I live in a condo now, I am not allowed to have a dog. I also had a handsome cat who recently passed away. I am a single mom and my only child is off on her own now and taking care of pets is absolutely what I want to do with my free time! This pet sitting experience provides my pet fix while also providing pet owners a peace of mind knowing their pet is totally cared for in their absence! I am a teacher during the school year but have weekends and the summer totally free! I can pet sit at your home during these times so that your pet is truly comfortable in the place they know best! I look forward to meeting you and your pet! So please reach out to book a stay or a visit! Thank you!

Maria is wonderful. She has been caring for my dog for years. She is reliable, caring, and responsible. She is a total animal lover, and it shows. My Lola LOVES her....tail wagging like crazy every time Maria comes over!

Maria is a kind, compassionate lover of all animals. She goes out of her way to care for and protect every animal, whether under her care or not. Maria once saw a bird in a cage in the back of a parked car and she would not leave the animal alone until she found the owner and made sure the bird was fine. She loves dogs with this same passion and treats them with the same love and respect as she would if they were her own.

Maria might be the biggest dog lover I've ever met. She'll stop to pet just about every single one she sees. Overall a great dog sitter/walker and an even better person! Would recommend her to absolutely everyone!!!

I will follow the rules you set for your pets in your home. I am careful and diligent. I will also provide pictures if you would like to ease your mind so that you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is truly cared for!

Information Maria S. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds, however, I would not sit for an aggressive dog. Therefore, I would like to know the temperament of the dog before sitting for it and how it does with other animals. I will not refuse a dog if it doesn't get along with other dogs because I would just keep away from dog parks and very public places but I'd just like to know.

A typical day

I love to take dogs on walks or runs if they are the type to run with someone. I like hiking and if near bye some trails I would gladly do that. Also I love the beach and would take a dog there if allowed. Lastly dog parks are a great way to socialize dogs so I would be willing to go there as well!
