🐾 Get $20 off your first booking! Use my code: https://www.rover.com/sit/mariav62577 ✨ I'm a full-time pet sitter, so your baby will always be my priority! I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared.✨ I’ve loved dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, and I’ve been lucky to grow up surrounded by them. My very first best friend was Camila, a sweet schnauzer who was by my side for 11 wonderful years. I cared for her from playful puppyhood through her golden years, even helping her through motherhood. Later, I welcomed two adorable kittens, Tomás and Bella, who showed me just how unique and special cats’ love can be. They sometimes needed medical treatments, and I learned how to give them the extra care and attention they deserved. Today, I don’t have pets or children at home—so when I host, your furry baby gets all of my love and attention. I only care for one pet at a time, so you can feel confident knowing your companion will always be safe, happy, and well cared for. I’m also lucky to live right next to Wellevy Park, a big, beautiful space that’s perfect for daily walks and playtime. Since becoming a pet sitter with Rover, I’ve had the joy of meeting some of the sweetest pups and kitties. Caring for them and giving them plenty of love isn’t just my job—it’s truly my passion.🌟 And if Spanish is easier for you—¡también hablo español! ☺️
