Pet care experience

Dedicated Pet Best Buddy!

I have taken care of dogs since I was a little kid. My godmother used to own five dogs and seven cats back in Brazil. Every time that I would come over to her place I would love to take care of her pets. The best memories I have are from feeding, playing, and having sleepovers with these animals every night. After my godmother passed away, I adopted one of her dogs named Liza. I brought Liza here to the United States with my family and she lived an eighteen year long and happy life! Towards the end of her life, she had vestibular disease. I made sure we were on top of all vet visits, meds and rehab care. She was very important to me so I wanted make sure we gave her the best care. Since then, I have been there for my family and friends to watch their beloved pets. I have experience from cat sitting, dog sitting, and dog walking! I make sure to send my friends and family updates on their fur baby as I know going on vacation can make you miss your pets. So excited for future fur buddies to meet!

Safety, trust & environment

I know how important it is for your pet's happiness to take their daily walks, so during their daily walk I will make sure that they exercise, have enrichment and also have fun with the scenery! If I am doing check ins I will make sure that your pup is happy and also that they have everything that they may need such as food, water and most importantly, are happy!

Mariana has a profound love of animals. Ever since she was a young girl, she has taken care of a variety of pets. This has ranged from Dogs, Cats, and even Horses! She brings an optimism and shine to any environment that is just contagious. Mariana is extremely qualified to take care of animals as she has been taking care of dogs almost the entirety of her life. She brings expert care as well, when my dog was very sick, she empathized with me and calmly explained what was going on with my dog. She had gone through a similar experience with her own dog in her past and she explained that the symptoms my dog had would go away after a week. She is not a vet, but after having my dog Kash checked out, it turned out she was correct. She will bring keen insights from her own animal care experience into caring for others beloved pets! I strongly recommend her and if you have any questions, please reach out to me.

I would love to write about this charming, wonderful young lady! I have entrusted her to care for my two pit bulls on many occasions, which is something I don’t take lightly just for the sake of their size and sometimes people think of pit bulls in a negative way! She came into my home and my dogs were instantly at ease and in love with her! She is a very kind, devoted, trustworthy and patient person not only with animals but with people as well! I have an elderly pit bull and she is the only person I will trust to be as patient and kind to him as his needs become more and more the older he gets! She has earned my trust and I can’t recommend her enough! I’ve seen her manage my dogs and she was a pivotal person when my old fella was having trouble, she called me to check on him and gave me encouragement when I needed it the most! She will always be #1 dog sitter / pet sitter for me because I trust her to be here on time, every time I need her and she has stayed with my pups as I am gone for long weekends etc… Mariana definitely is a very loving, educated, thoughtful and caring young lady. I can’t say enough wonderful things about her.
