There are never enough pet cuddles
Pet care experience
I grew up with a stray cat followed by a Lab-mix so pets were always a huge part of my life. Now as an adult I have a re-homed beagle who will be turning 4 soon. I have worked with a dog trainer on both my dogs and learned some good habits myself. I have great experience with delivering peanut butter or ham wrapped pills as well as eye drops or similar medications. Over the years I looked after pets with lots of energy and drive to play and those who just love chilling and having long naps. I am happy to take them for long walks around the neighborhood or just let them out in the yard if that's what they're are after. I'm the happiest when the pets are happy :)
Reviews
Maria is very caring and does a really great job with our dog, highly recommend!
Maria was so good with olive, she went above and beyond I could tell olive had so much fun with her! She is amazing!
Maria was absolutely wonderful and did an amazing job with Nova! Our dog clearly had fun on walks with her; some of our best pics are from this and Nova is always smiling! Would definitely recommend Maria to care for your pet!
Maria is the best!! She has taken care of our dog and loves him like her own. And he loves her! Would feel safe with Maria taking care of him anytime!

As a Rover user myself I know your fur-babys safety and wellbeing is your top priority and there is a whole bunch of important questions I'd ask before looking after your pet. I like to get as much information about your pet, it's character and habits as you are willing to share so I know how to best take care of them. I'd follow your dog's routine as much as possible to make them comfortable and at ease. I would also only take your dog to dog parks with your consent and never walk more than 2 dogs at a time. Due to my beagle being rather antisocial and often stressed around other dogs I cannot accommodate play dates at my home unfortunately.
Information Maria S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog is reactive, scared of certain breeds or has any triggers and whether they are allergic to anything. Can they be left alone at home and for how long? Information about their favorite walk spots, potty habits and favorite games to play will also come in handy :)
A typical day
I will do my best to match your pets energy. I'd happy to take them for long walks or runs in the morning, play at home/yard or dog park during the day and hopefully we can enjoy some cuddle time too. Just let me know how your pet likes to spend it's time and I'll make it happen!

Maria can watch in your home
Availability
I am currently not working and have plenty of time to assist other pet owners, as I know pet care can sometimes feel like a full time job. I am available for overnight stay, drop-in to keep your pet some company or take them out for walks.
