Safety, trust & environment

I have two cats of my own who love being in my company, and I’ve frequently cared for my friends’ pets when they’re away. They affectionately refer to me as their pets’ honorary aunt.

Information Maria S. would like to know about your pet

It’s helpful to know if your pet has any special needs, allergies, quirks, or things that make them anxious. Let me know what they like, what they don’t, and any routines you’d like me to follow!

A typical day

I’ll make sure your pet gets exercise, fresh air, and lots of love—whether that’s a fun walk, some playtime, or just exploring and sniffing around!

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Maria! I’ve always been an animal lover and treat every pet like they’re my own. I have two cats myself (who I’m totally obsessed with), so I understand how important it is to leave your pets in good hands. Whether I’m going for a walk with your pup or keeping your cat company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. I pay attention to the little things—every pet has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes them feel comfortable and happy.

Maria was great. She had constant communication with me and sent me photos of my precious cat while I was out of town. I am very happy and satisfied and will definitely be booking her again for any future travel I have.
