Mariah was an excellent pet sitter for our senior cat, Bobby. She was incredibly communicative and gave me frequent and helpful updates and photos (which I asked for and really appreciated while traveling). She helped troubleshoot some of our cat's issues (he is a senior cat so these happen), was observant/responsive, and I had full confidence that our cat was in good hands. Our cat warmed up to her right away (she gave him treats to coax him out from under the bed), which is not typical for most pet sitters or guests that come to our house. She was very helpful by checking our email and taking out our trash as well. I look forward to working with Mariah in the future!

Mariah was so amazing with my dog who had never been left with someone else before . My dog was safe and happy and in good care with Mariah. She is a doll and even sent us photos of our dog while we were gone . It’s the best feeling to know you picked the perfect person to care for your dog .. I’m so grateful I met her and will use her whenever I’m in Santa Barbara .

Mariah was incredible watching my Ruby. She clearly is a dog person and treats dogs with so much love and respect. She took her on all sorts of outings, to the dog park, on walks, and totally rolled with the more high maintenance parts of a frenchie. She sent tons of updates and even washed something my dog had an accident on. I would (and plan to) her again in a heartbeat!

Mariah is an incredibly caring and patient pet sitter. I completely trust her with my senior dog, Ube, who has both health issues and challenging behavior. Mariah took the time to understand Ube's needs, never rushed her, and always handled her with love and compassion. It’s rare to find someone so attentive and genuinely kind. I always feel at ease knowing Ube is in Mariah’s care. Highly recommend!

I highly recommend Mariah to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy dog sitter! She watched my dog overnight for a few nights, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience—especially since it was my first time leaving him for a weekend. Mariah sent regular picture updates, which were so comforting and showed just how happy and well-cared for he was. It was clear she treated him like one of her own, taking him on long walks and even to the park. I felt totally at ease knowing he was in such good hands. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!

Mariah has watched my bulldog numerous times and is so great with him. He loves going for walks with her and I can honestly say she gives him love as if he were her own dog. Every time I say her name he gets excited, it’s the cutest thing. I’m really happy with her!

Schedule

I am a remote worker with a flexible schedule. I spend a lot of my time outdoors whether getting sunshine on the beach or on the trails! I have a pup of my own so if yours ever needs some socializing I can bring her with us or leave her at home if your pup desires more one on one care.
