I am Patient, Energetic and WFH!
Pet care experience
*NOTE: I HAVE A FULL TIME JOB THAT IS MOSTLY REMOTE BUT REQUIRES SOME TRAVEL* I have owned/taken care of a lot of different animals since I was young, but have been pet sitting professionally for 6 years. The first animal I adopted when I turned 18 was a Siberian Husky, who is now 6 years old. I am very experienced with high energy, stubborn, shy, sassy, dogs. With that comes a lot of patience and lots of play time/activity! I also own two cats and love spending quality time with them. If your dog loves running, sniffing or chasing squirrels, I will follow their lead! If you have cats, I will cuddle/play with them, be in the same room as them, or give them as much space as they need!
Reviews
Mariana has been amazing with our pups! They love her and she’s so pleasant to work with! Thank you Mariana!
We booked Mariana last minute and she went above and beyond to accommodate our busy schedules. She took great care of our high energy pup Leo and provided thoughtful updates and pictures. We will absolutely be contacting her the next time Leo needs a sitter!
Mariana was fantastic! She took wonderful care of our high energy pup! She gave very detailed updates and sent fun pictures of their adventures. She was respectful of our home and we will definitely use her again!
Mariana did a great job of sitting our energetic 2 year old and our 11 year old elder dog. She was very dependable, asked good questions, and we felt very good leaving our pups for the day.
About Mariana G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety is very important to me! I believe in positive reinforcement and try to stay pretty close to your pet’s day-to-day schedule. I tend to keep a very close eye through out the day and provide potty breaks every 4 hours. When your pet is in my care, you can expect lots of cuddles, playtime, and lots of pics/vids! Communication is very important to me so naturally I like to give updates as the day goes by and will reach out with questions, if any.
Information Mariana G. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know if your dog has any type of issue I should look out for, such as eating things on walks, pulls on leash, jumps on people, if they are reactive towards other dogs and/or people, and if they bite. Just basic information that will ensure the safety of the pup, and mine.
A typical day
I am comfortable taking dogs on long walks, and on car rides if needed. I have experience with crate training and simple command training. I have walked/cared for all types of dogs (big, small, pullers, sniffers, shy, puppies, old, etc.). On walks, I let the pup guide me through their neighborhood! It is especially helpful for the pups that are a little shy and don’t like to be too far from their home! When I pet sit, I typically like to be with your fur baby as much as possible pduring my booking. I usually do potty breaks and walks 4+ times a day, and include lots of playtime (indoor or outdoor) in between! I am comfortable if the pup likes to cuddle at night and I am a morning person so I love walking up early and following the owner’s schedule to a T!

Mariana can watch in your home
Availability
As I mentioned above, I do have a full time job that is M-F 8am-5pm (most days). My job is usually fully remote, but we are going through a core conversion/merger so I have been doing a lot of travel because of it. I’m mostly available after 6pm on weekdays or all day mostly every weekend. If you need me for longer than a weekend, and you’re comfortable sharing your WIFI so I can work from your home, I would love to work something out!
