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.

Safety, trust & environment

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.

Maria is the biggest cat lover I know. She has an obvious care and love for animals to anyone she meets. She’s also extremely responsible and kind, and one of the only people I trust to come to my house when I’m out of town. I have a cat who has a lot of anxiety and pretty much hates everyone but my husband and I, and she is always so patient and loving towards her when we go out of town. She even lets her pet her now which is a huge deal if you know my cat. She will love and care for your pets as her own! I hate leaving my fur baby, but she makes me feel much more at ease.

Schedule

Caring for cats is a daily routine for me, as I’m the proud owner of two feline companions. I delight in pampering them with treats and expressing my affection through play whenever there are toys at hand.

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!
