Pet care experience

Caring and responsible cat lover

I've been looking after my friends' cats for more than 7 years now, and 5 years ago I got lucky enough to adopt my cat, Grusha. We have moved two countries together, which wasn't easy, but it made me even more responsible, organized and caring when it comes to cats' wellbeing and safety.

Maria did a great job caring for Skip - you can tell immediately that she is very good with cats, and Skip warmed to her right away. Maria is very reliable and communicative.

Maria was a really comfortable, trusting and reliable person to trust with my flo. Which is what I needed to ease the anxiety of traveling, she monitored everything in regards to her food/litter carefully, as well as played with her and respected her boundaries as a cat. She's very experienced!

We're delighted to have found Maria to look after Oscar while we're away; she is a calm reliable presence and it's lovely to come home to a content, well fed boy.

Maria is an excellent sitter. Charlie is a recently adopted cat and still a bit nervous but he quickly made friends with Maria who is an experienced cat owner who knows how to make your cat feel happy and relaxed. Very good communication with some lovely photos. Arrived home to a content cat. Strong recommendation.

Always Maria.. So trustable and reliable. My cat Lila’s favorite, normally she is very shy and finding hard to trust people but with Maria she’s very open and playful.
