Specialized cat sitter
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Mariana I've been cat-sitting for about ten years for family, friends, and co-workers. I can do from drop-ins to monthly sits. My experience varies from a sick kitten who needed nightly medicine administered to three elderly cats who just wanted the company. Alongside my broad experience of cat-sitting, I've done my fair share of small to mid-size dogs. I work remotely from my computer, so I can offer your friendly dogs much-needed in-person companionship throughout the day. My main option is for cat-sitting, but I am happy to offer dog walking and drop-ins for the other four-legged furry friends. A little bit about me: Due to working from home I like to stay active, having that be at the gym or walking outdoors. I like to be tidy making sure to leave a place better than I found it.
Reviews
Mariana did a great job watching our senior cat and house sitting for us. We would use her again without reservation. Mariana is very conscientious and asked good questions during the meet and greet about kitty's routines and preferences and any particular needs around the house (trash, watering, etc.). She sent us daily updates with pictures and was very hands on with our affectionate boy, who requires a fair amount of cuddles, lap time, and treats, and a little bit of coaxing to eat. Mariana was meticulous about keeping notes re kitty's food and water intake and proactive with communicating re any issues. She kept the house tidy and left it as she found it. Mariana was a pleasure to work with and we would definitely recommend her. Thanks, Mariana!
Mariana house sat for my 2 pups and cat recently and she was fantastic! It was so great to have peace of mind and relax while I was away. She is communicative, reliable, warm and loving with animals, is respectful and considerate, and just plain genuinely cares - she took great care of both my pets and our house! I would 100% hire Mariana again!
I highly recommend Mariana. I felt completely at ease having her stay with my senior cat. She is communicative, friendly, and goes above and beyond. She left the place clean and my kitty was well taken care of while I was away. I had a last minute change of travel plans and Mariana was very helpful and flexible.
Mariana did an amazing job taking care of my two kitties while I was away. She had great communication and went above and beyond. My kitties are very shy and she was still able to make them feel comfortable and take great care of them!! Thanks you!!

Safety, trust & environment
Treating your pet as if it is my own, ensuring their collar or harness is well placed before going on walks. Putting away any food or items of risk that I would not want them to get into. General safety precautions.
Information Mariana G. would like to know about your pet
Before dog sitting, I would like to know information about your dog, such as: their personality, their comfort with other dogs/people, if they have been to dog parks before. Any thing that could be important. I do not have any breed preferences.
A typical day
Walks can range from walks around the neighborhood, park, field, and if your dog is highly energetic I can take him hiking with me as well.
Services
Mariana can watch in your home
Availability
I work from home Mon-Fri from 8 am to 5 pm. I can provide up to 30 minutes walk early in the morning, during lunchtime, or in the afternoon. Attention to your pet would be as much that can be provided throughout the day.
