Safety, trust & environment

Every morning, afternoon, and evening I go on a walk for at least a mile. This, of course, can be modified to fit your pet's needs, whether that be for longer or shorter depending on your pet's preference, breed, and activity level. Aside from an active lifestyle, I have a calm demeanor and quiet personality, perfect for animals that require some time to adjust to new people.

Information Mariaam C. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful to know: -Does your dog have a strong prey drive? -Is your dog a “dog’s dog” or would they prefer human interaction? -Does your dog have any emotional triggers? -Does your dog have a history of getting into squabbles when around a lot of other dogs? - If you had to use a color to describe your dog’s personality what would it be?

A typical day

We'll start our day with an early morning walk before the sun gets too hot. There's a trail In my neighborhood with three dog parks to choose from, all with water stations and enrichment equipment.

Pet care experience

I’m a DC-based pet sitter and dog walker offering house sitting, drop-in visits, dog boarding, and overnight pet sitting across the District, including Navy Yard, NoMa, Adams Morgan, and Capitol Hill. Before adopting my own rescue nearly 10 years ago, I spent four years volunteering at my local humane society. Between my decade of personal pet ownership and shelter experience, I know that our pets are family and they deserve exceptional care, comfort, and consideration while you’re away. I work 100% remotely from home, which means your pet will never be left alone for long stretches! Because my schedule is completely flexible, I’m able to offer: Frequent Potty Breaks & Midday Walks: Perfect for puppies, seniors, or dogs who thrive on a consistent routine. Medication & Routine Care: Experienced with sticking strictly to feeding schedules, oral medications, and special care instructions. Whether you need a full-time overnight house sitter or overnight pet sitting while traveling, or reliable midday walks while you’re at the office, I’d love to care for your fur babies. Reach out today to schedule a free Meet & Greet!

Mariaam was absolutely perfect for Chewy! She sent me consistent updates and photos and I could tell that he was well loved and cared for while I was away. I would definitely ask to book her again!!

Mariaam has watched my dog several times and has always been great! I can trust that Bailey is well taken care of when I’m away

Mariaam was so lovely with Daisy! She was punctual, followed all of my directions (Daisy was on medication after a few very unexpected vet visits!) and was patient with her during her stubbornness of not wanting to be outside. I sincerely appreciated her being flexible with us and Daisy was well cared for and seemed to have had a great day!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
