Experienced dogsitter

Pet care experience

I have always loved dogs and they seems to like me as well! I have been officially dogsitting for 4 years now and it has been nothing short of wonderful. I have had the pleasure of working with so many greats dogs and their families. I am from Massachusetts but relocated to Arizona meaning I am left behind some amazing repeat clients but am super excited to meet new dogs! I used to work in a dog kennel and I love it so much. I have worked with dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and even with specific needs. I have experience in administrating medicine as well. I am a proud mama of a Chihuahua mix (Misky) and auntie to a Corgi mix (Watney). I am super excited to meet your pups!

Maria is friendly, warm, affable, trustworthy, and flexible. She did a great job with our dogs because she truly cares about them. I have already booked her for another stay, which is the highest compliment I can give her.

Maria was an outstanding sitter for our large puppy while we were away for a weeklong vacation. We coordinated between two Rover sitters for coverage / backup for the duration and Maria handled the small amount of extra logistics flawlessly. We were delighted with many reassuring pictures and descriptions. Imagine: whole family stampede to each Rover Card on arrival. Maria truly went above-and-beyond for us on multiple levels as a combined dog caretaker and house sitter. Overall, we were very comfortable leaving our dog and home in Maria's hands and strongly recommend her services.

Maria did everything we asked and more. She checked food, water and cleaned up messes! We didn't need our old dog to be walked so she provided some love and comfort to him while we were gone.We would definitely use her again and recommend her caring for your pet!

Safety, trust & environment

As a dog parent myself, I always strive to make sure clients feel comfortable leaving their pets with me! I always make sure all rooms are dog proofed and safe for your pups. I make sure to take note of what your pups are used to and comfortable with!

Information Maria U. would like to know about your pet

No breed preference for I love all dogs of any age. Would like to know of any medications or allergies the dog may have. Knowing if they are friendly with people and dogs or if there is anything I should be aware of is very important to me and I usually ask during meet and greets!

A typical day

Depending on weather, playing outside and going to parks is super fun! Indoor play is important when it is raining or too hot out. Games like tug o war are always a fun indoor game
