Pet care experience

Full time animal lover!!

Hi all! I’m a 26 year old girl who has taken care of cats and dogs for almost 3 years already. I mainly foster babies through Austin pets Alive and love finding them new homes. I’m also okay with animals with ringworm, incontinence, FELV… love them all :) I have good experience with neonatal animals, animals with paralysis, parvo and other medical issues! I am okay with giving oral meds, injections and taking care of any wounds if needed! I live right on the lake so I’m constantly taking walks. No worries on your little baby not going outside while they are with me! 🥰🥰 I always send pictures and videos so you are comfortable with me and make sure your baby is in the right hands!

House Sitting • Jul 29, 2026

Mariana was absolutely wonderful, and we'd happily have her back anytime! From the moment we left, she kept us updated with photos and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing Jalen was happy, loved, and well taken care of while we were away. She was communicative throughout the entire stay and always quick to respond. Jalen can sometimes be a little hesitant around new people, but he warmed up to Mariana immediately. It was so clear from all the updates that she gave him tons of love, attention, and playtime, and we could tell he was having a great time with her. She also treated our home with so much care. We honestly came back to a house that may have been cleaner than when we left it! It's obvious she respects both the pets she cares for and their homes. We couldn't have asked for a better sitter and would welcome Mariana back anytime. We highly recommend her!

Mariana was wonderful! We were a little nervous since this was the first time we'd left our baby girl since her big brother passed away two months ago. Mariana made sure Amaya got plenty of love and attention, along with walks, playtime, and lots of companionship. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages, photos, and videos, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Amaya was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. We wouldn't hesitate to have Mariana watch Amaya again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and trustworthy pet sitter. Thank you, Mariana!

Dog Walking • May 05, 2026

Had a great experience with our Rover walker! Mariana was very communicative throughout, sent lots of pictures, and kept us updated the whole time. Our dogs looked happy and well taken care of after each walk. Really appreciated her help and would definitely recommend her to others!

I work from home! So I have plenty of time to take them to go play and be with them. I live near the river so going on walks is super easy :)

Safety, trust & environment

I am absolutely in love with animals! The only reason why I don’t have them right now is because I think it would be a big long term responsibility I need to think of haha! I offer food, water and comfy beds (even though I let them in my bed all the time) and most importantly, love and treats!

A typical day

Your pet will get plenty of walks with me to make sure we are draining the energy! I love to also give them some toys such as those where they have to search for treats to keep them entertained.

I would like to know if your pet gets along with others before taking them on walks and if they have any allergies or issues with foods/ treats I might give them.
