Care as Loyal as Your Furry Friend

Your dog isn’t just a pet, they’re family. I’ve grown up with dogs since I was four years old and have always jumped at any opportunity to care for friends’ and neighbors’ pets. Being a lifelong animal lover, I truly understand how important these little beings are and how much trust it takes to welcome someone new into your home and your dog’s space. I provide dependable, loving care tailored to your fur baby’s unique personality, energy level, and routine. Whether we’re going on long walks, playing fetch, or enjoying calm cuddle time, your fur baby will be treated like one of my own. I’m attentive to details, comfortable following specific care instructions, and committed to keeping you updated with photos and messages so you always feel connected. My goal is simple: a happy, safe furry friend and complete peace of mind for you.

Safety, trust & environment

My pet is always pampered. I ensure he has a warm blankey at all times, can safely and easily get up onto any beds if needed, full & clean water, & full plate of food. Stocked on treats & any clothes to make his walks more comfy and warm & I hope to do the same for your pets!

Mariana was very responsive and flexible when plans changed! She updated me with photos during visits and went above and beyond taking care of them!

Mariana is wonderful with our dogs! She is very trustworthy and responsible. She keeps us updated and sends us pictures of the dogs throughout her stay. This is our second time with Mariana, and we will use her again. Thank you Mariana for taking care of Archie and Frankie!

Mariana is absolutely the right choice. As a first time dog parent, leaving my new puppy alone with just anyone is really really hard. Especially someone spending time in your home. I have never felt better about picking Mariana to watch my baby. She wanted to meet me and my puppy before she confirmed the booking - this is what sold me. She asked questions and wanted to really know about us and our routine. Having her here was like I never left. cannoli was so happy to see her and made me feel so much better that I didn’t have to worry. Book Mariana - but not so much I can’t use her.

This is Mariana’s second service with Luna and she has been fantastic both times! I always have peace of mind knowing Luna is safe, happy, and well cared for when I’m gone on a trip or have a long work day!

Mariana stayed and cared for our 2 siberian huskies for 5 days while we flew out of state for a wedding. She did an outstanding job communicating and updating me throughout. She did daily walks for them and followed all feeding instructions. We came home and the house was possibly even cleaner than when we left! 10/10 will be hiring her again! Thank you Mariana ❤️

Mariana is absolutely wonderful. She was very communicative, kind, and paid close attention to detail to make sure she was giving the best care to my older shiba, Luna who has a lot of quirks. :) I got so many updates with photos throughout her stay and did not have any worries with Luna’s care while I was away, which is priceless! On top of that, she kept everything very clean in the house. We would love to have Mariana stay again with Luna in the future. Thank you Mariana! :)

I’ll be sure to take care of your pet as if it was my own as I know how much stress goes into putting your baby in the hands of someone new. I’ll make sure they’re comfortable, entertained, well fed, and full of so so so much love as that is what they deserve. I’ve watched friends and neighbors pets & have always had a pet in my home since I was 4 years old!
