Pet care experience

Your fur baby’s new bestie!

I naturally treat every pet like my own family, and that’s exactly how I’ll care for your pet when you’re away. I’m the person who stops to say hi to every dog and cat on the street, and for as long as I can remember, animals have been my happiest place. I’ve always felt a special connection with all kinds of animals, and being around them isn’t just one of my favorite things in the world—it’s a big part of who I am. When I’m with your fur baby, they get all my love and attention. I have years of experience with puppies, adult dogs, seniors, and cats, and I tailor care to their energy level and routine. I’m basically the fun aunt who spoils them (within your rules!) with cuddles, playtime, and lots of reassurance. You’ll get regular updates and photos, and your pet will get the safe, happy, and affectionate care they deserve.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. In a client’s home, I carefully follow instructions regarding feeding schedules, walks, litter box cleaning, and any special needs like medications. I also provide extra care for senior pets who need a gentle and patient routine. I make sure to spend quality time with each pet—playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company depending on their personality. Owners can always count on daily photo and video updates for peace of mind. When pets are with me in my own home, I create a cozy, pet-friendly environment with fresh water, attention, and a safe space. I keep their routines as close as possible to what they’re used to, so they remain secure and relaxed while their family is away.

Mariana was great! I was very worried about leaving my cat for the first time. She knew how to make him comfortable and they became good friends. He was safe and happy and she took care of everything, sending me lots of pics every day. Will hire again!
