I feel better when pets feel better
Pet care experience
Pets are my passion and their piece-of-mind is my purpose! I understand the anxiety pets can have when a pet owner is away from home. I genuinely care about your pets and their feelings. I pride myself on earning your pets trust quickly so any anxiety is soon replaced with feeling safe and secure. Ever since I can remember I had a love for animals. I wanted to be a veterinarian but then learned that the amount of schooling needed wasn’t for me. I found other ways to surround myself with animals. I’ve had a variety of pets growing up and into adulthood. Ranging from fish, reptiles, hamsters, birds to cats and large breeds of dogs. When I didn’t have a pet of my own I would foster and volunteer at shelters teaching puppy yoga as a way to bring awareness to animals in need and adoption. I have most recently been traveling up and down the west coast of California with my husband and young son taking care of a variety of pets and also house sitting and watching after animals for extended stays.

Mariah is the best!! Calvin is in love with Vino and we can’t be more happy with their support. They are so kind, communicative and loving. Vino LOVES them!!
Mariah is the best!! We don’t know what we would do without her!!
Mariah always takes such good care of our pups. She puts in extra effort and I always feel so comfortable leaving them with her. Even last minute she is willing to show up. Very grateful to have her!
Mariah was great! She sent pics everyday and truly gave our dog the love she needed. We felt comforted knowing Mariah was at the house while we were away. We would absolutely have her back!

Availability
I have an extremely flexible schedule. My husband and I built our lives 8 years ago so that we could be home 99% of the time, have flexible schedules and travel often. The little work that I do (2-3 hours a day remotely) is scheduled around when I want to work and typically is in the early hours or late hours. I am available for quick well checks, dog walking, longer extended stays and overnight care. Your animals will have my full attention and care for what ever is needed or more. Your home will be left in the condition I found it or better. Need help watering some plants, bringing in the mail/packages, cleaning out the dishwasher, folding the laundry, tidying up… happy to help with any additional tasks to make your time away more effortless and enjoyable!!
