Pet care fits naturally into my routine—I’m a graduate student with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to plan my days around the pets I care for. Whether it’s morning feedings, midday walks, or evening check-ins, I make sure pets get consistent, loving attention. I treat every visit as if I’m caring for my own animals, and being able to build trust and comfort with them is one of the best parts of my day.

About Mariana A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
In a client’s home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely—from feeding times and walk schedules to medications and preferred toys. I take time to bond with each pet, whether that means playtime, a long walk, or just quiet companionship. I also make sure your home stays clean and secure—tidying up after meals, cleaning litter boxes, and keeping things just the way you left them. Communication is key, so I always provide updates, photos, and notes so you know your pet is happy and well cared for.
Information Mariana A. would like to know about your pet
It’s important to know if pets have special needs, medical conditions, allergies, feeding schedules, favorite toys, routines, behavioral quirks, exercise preferences, or anxieties. This ensures their comfort, health, and happiness.
A typical day
When watching pets, I’ll take them on walks, play fetch, tug-of-war, or puzzle games, provide cuddles, brushing, and enrichment activities, ensuring they feel happy, safe, and loved.

Pet Lover with 7 Years Experience
Pet care experience
With 7 years of experience, I offer calm, reliable care for pets of all ages and types—from energetic puppies to senior pets needing a gentle touch. I'm confident administering medication, handling special diets, and reading animal body language to keep them safe and happy. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or something a little more unique—I’ve got you covered. I treat every animal like my own, and I’m all about belly rubs, long walks, and keeping their routine just right. Your pet’s happiness (and your peace of mind) are my top priorities!

Reliable dog walker !

Mariana did a great job caring for Cosmo - taking him out for walks and to do his business. She also made sure he got his meds and followed up and got our house key back to us in a timely fashion.

She persisted until Arlo did his business
