I have a great schedule that is very flexible, when I have more time, I love spending extra time with your fur baby, either a nice long walk, or just hanging out with a cat and chilling, I love all kinds of weather, so as it's said, rain or shine... I will be there 😀

Information Maria W. would like to know about your pet

I always like to find out out what their normal schedule is and stick to it. I love going to your home to be with your Fur baby, it keeps them comfortable in their own home so they're less stressed out

A typical day

What ever they like to do, go on long walks or just snuggling with your fur baby watching a good show. I do love going on walks and checking out the neighborhood, or hanging out in the back yard. I live all kinds of weather

Pet care experience

I have had pets my whole life. I love all tyes of dogs and cats. I am comfortable with all different sizes of dogs. I can train puppies basic training, My instructor called me a dog whisperer =) because of the dogs I was training with, I was able to keep them calm. I'm from Chicago and I love all kinds of weather. I'm very fun and loving. I will treat your fur baby with tons of love, and care for as part of my own family. I have 2 daughters and a small dog, her name is Coco. I can come and go as well as stay over night. I can offer a discount for multiple pets =) Thank you for checking out my profile =) . I am working full time with rover, I am very flexible with my time. I will follow your instructions for the care of your fur baby I am very attentive and love to hang out with your fur baby inside or out. So whatever their routine is, I will follow with no problem 😊
