Pet care experience

Animal lover ❤️🐾

I’ve worked with animals my entire life from dog/cat sitting for military members all over the world to fostering pups that later were adopted out to their forever homes. I’ve also worked on a ranch caring for livestock and other farm animals. I provide the basics: bathe, exercise, feed and water but I can also provide some basic training and work on some behavioral issues. I know how to perform dog CPR and can administer basic medications or treatments. I will send video and picture updates to pet parents while they are away if they would like. I always want to know that my dog is well taken care of and even spoiled a little bit while I’m away and I want others to feel the same way when I watch their animals for them!

I can’t say enough positive things about Mariah! She and her son took amazing care of our gang of 3. Mariah was super flexible with us when booking and had quick and easy communication about everything. She shared pictures with me over the weekend they were at her house and I really appreciated that. My dogs got along well with hers and they definitely came home worn out! Would definitely love to book with Mariah again and highly recommend her for your pet sitting/care needs. Thank you for taking such good care of Boscoe, Isabella and Chapo.

Mariah is awesome and I continue to use her for dog sitting. Our dog is always happy when we arrive and Mariah is responsive when needed.

My sensitive German Shepherd comes back so so happy. He is sensitive to noises and sounds but Mariah takes great care of him. Thank you!

So thankful for Mariah to be able to take our pup into her home for the holidays while we were out of town! Communication was quick and great, and she was very flexible with the times we needed for drop off and pick up. Max had a wonderful time! :)

Schedule

Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routines. Each day typically involves feeding, watering, and exercising pets, along with providing companionship and attention. Regular grooming, cleaning of living spaces, administering medication if needed, and observing overall health are also part of the routine. Weekly tasks usually include a trip to the groomer, vet visits, and going on long walks or hikes. These activities not only ensure the well-being of my pets but also strengthens the bond between us.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in both my home and my client's home by providing personalized attention, regular feeding, and exercise routines tailored to the pet's needs. In-home pet care services also include administering medication, grooming, and ensuring a clean and safe environment. For clients who prefer their pets to stay in my home, I offer a welcoming environment with designated spaces for play, rest, and socialization with other pets. Overall, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of the pets under my care, ensuring they receive the love and attention they deserve.

Pets

A typical day

I engage the pets I watch in a variety of fun activities tailored to their preferences and energy levels. This may include interactive play sessions with toys, puzzle games to stimulate their minds, leisurely walks in the neighborhood or local park, teaching new tricks or commands for mental stimulation, and providing plenty of cuddle and petting time for comfort and bonding.
