Pet care experience
Pet care experience: - I earned over 200 community service hours in high school by volunteering at national service dogs for three years. I had several service dogs come stay at my house on weekends and evenings to help reduce there stress. I also helped volunteer during the week at national service dogs, bringing them out to the run to play, feeding and giving them attention and love. - I now have my own dog who is 5 years old and is very well trained. Bentley can perform 18 different tricks on command is crate trained and loves to cuddle, swim and play with his toys and frisbee. Special Skills - My experience with national service dogs and owning my dog Bentley has taught me a tremendous amount about dog training and dog behaviour. Of course there is always more to learn, I am very excited to learn even more by getting expierence through rover and dog sitting all different kinds of breeds. - I have been employed at a pet store for the last 3 years and have gained tons of pet care and training knowledge on top of my exceptional customer service. - My dog Bentley loves when other dogs from rover come to visit, if you’d like to meet Bentley and I before your dog comes to stay then just ask me to set up a meet and greet with your availability. I think a meeting before the initial stay is a great way to see if it would be a good fit. Please feel free to send me a message through rover anytime if you would like to reserve a booking or if you have any questions about myself or my services.
Reviews
Mariah has been nothing but exceptional when taking care of our puppy. Finn suffers from some really bad separation anxiety. After having Finn stay now for 3 weeks, I'm extremely happy and reassured that he not only has a friend to play with (Bently) but knowing Mariah does care about the dogs that stay with her. I will continue to keep using her as my go to sitter, Finn likes it there and I like the level of professionalism that is utilize when dealing with her.
Dallas always loves going to visit Mariah and Bentley!
I love that Mariah only takes a limited amount of dogs at a time. She's really able to dedicate her time to the pets she cares for. Her family is also very supportive of her in this business which is comforting knowing that the people around her are also caring and kind towards the pets she cares for. Dallas had no signs of anxiety or discomfort when she returned home which I take as a great sign (it was the first time she had been away from us). Thanks for your careful care for Dallas!
To say I was disappointed is an understatement. Mariah stayed at our house to pet sit our 2 dogs, We have a pool, and I had told her she was welcome to go swimming if she wanted. I did not realize that she would invite 2 people over on Friday evening, and 1 on Saturday to use our pool as well. She never asked us if that was OK. Also, she never texted to let us know how the dogs were doing. I came home after the weekend, to find that my male dog had been scratching his face all weekend, and had scratched off all of the fur and skin on the side of his face, and it was raw, and very infected. I would not use this pet sitter again!

Information Mariah B. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any particular breed preferences, however I would like to make sure that the dog is friendly with other dogs and has pretty good house manners before coming to our house for services.
A typical day
There is a large soccer field located right behind my house that we can access through our back yard. so you can assure your pooch will get lots of exercise walking with myself and my dog.
