Active and Passionate Animal Lover!

Pet care experience

Previously a dog kennel attendant, I have a passion for animals! I have the knowledge to not only provide the best care for your furry friend, but I have the passion to learn and make walks fun for them! I have experience handling a multitude of animals, as I worked (and currently live) on a farm, owned horses, reptiles, etc! I can’t wait to meet you and your pets!

Maria is incredible! Our dogs immediately loved her and she was even able to work miracles with our nervous cattle dog foster who has some fear with new people. She got her to play in the yard and had fun games of fetch! She is punctual, reliable, communicative, gentle, great with directions and understands animals on a deep level. We will absolutely be repeat customers and highly recommend Maria!

I not only care for animals - I love them! Yes, even the grouchy ones! ❤️ It’s important to have patience and learn our furry friends, instead of rushing into something they may not be comfortable with. Because I have worked at a dog kennel, I have the ability to handle dogs of all temperaments.

Information Maria V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog is reactive in any way, whether it is with other dogs or humans. This won’t steer me away, but important to know!

I love letting dogs be themselves! I enjoy spending time outside and exploring new walking spots with dogs! I love watching dogs have fun and learning their personalities.
