14 years comprehensive experience.
Pet care experience
I have owned dogs, cats and more my entire life. My professional experience is extensive. Most recently employed at a local 24-hour emergency animal hospital. I have bred and nurtured three litters (dogs and cats!), pet sat (including overnights) worked for a therapy animal rehabilitation group, a groomer/freelanced, walked dogs, volunteered at rescues and 2 farms. I also have experience with senior pets, aggressive breeds, special needs, and medical problems. I am just as trained for safety as I am for fun! I even walk my own cat on a leash! My schedule is flexible. I am capable of running with your dog and engaging in active play. My goal will be to entertain your pet as much as he/she wants, so that you never feel like it is missing out while you are away. I love to provide picture updates so you see your special friend.
Reviews
Maria stayed with our two dogs for two weeks and gave us such peace of mind. She is wonderful with the pups, kept us posted and communicated well and we came home to a clean house! Pretty sure our pups are missing her now after all that love and attention. Would definitely recommend!
About Maria W.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Each one of my pets has their own special diet, they enjoy supervised outside time, and receive lots of love. In your home, I will treat your pets as though their are my own.
Information Maria W. would like to know about your pet
If the dog is food-aggressive, dog-aggressive, people-aggressive, or requires medical care, as well as any routines they must stick to. Safety and comfort is the priority for everyone, four-legged or two.
A typical day
I am able to take your dog anywhere your preferences may lie. The dog park, down the street, just your yard, you name it. I value engaging with the dogs I watch, making sure they enjoy ample playtime and exercise.
