Safety, trust & environment

I care for my pets with the safety. As long as you provide everything I need to know about your fur baby, I will do my best to provide just that. I want to make sure every pet is comfortable & feels safe.

Information Mariah R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any behaviors your dogs have before meeting. Overstimulation, aggression, etc. please let me know if any allergies as well so that pets & I are safe.

A typical day

I love to play with animals so I will want to get their energy out. If you have toys to provide for stimulation, that’s great and I will bond with them using those toys & rewarding treats as long as it’s ok for them. I go by a pets body language in order to provide what they’re comfortable with.

Pet care experience

Hi there, I have grown up with three German Shepards and I now own a high energy Belgian Malinoisis. I own cats as well. For five years, I have worked in the pet food industry, working in multiple independent or small owned pet shops where I specialize in educating consumers on their pet's needs.

Mariah was attentive, caring, and loving with my dogs. She was flexible whereas she would come to our house and spend time. Not just walk perform the bare minimum. She gave us daily updates that included pictures and comments from interactions with my dogs. One of my dogs has a limp, and needs a bit more patience. I highly recommend her if you need a caring sitter for your furry children!

Kept me up to date with how Rae was doing every day and her food area clean ( even when ants decided to help themselves ! ) . Will absolutely recommend Mariah to anyone looking for someone to take care of their fur babies . Thank you Mariah!

Mariah has a natural ability to connect with animals, providing them with both care and companionship. She is trustworthy, attentive, and always ensures that pets feel comfortable and safe. Her genuine love for animals makes her a great fit for anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet caregiver.

I have worked with Mariah for years and honestly I have nothing but good things to say about her. She is passionate about helping people as well as furry friends. The amount of knowledge she has about caring for animals is incredible. Mariah takes the caring and safety for pets seriously. I trust her with my whole heart and would trust her with my fur babies any day!
