Pet care experience

! BECAUSE OF THIS WEEKS VACATION ALL MEET & GREETS APPOINTMENTS WILL RESUME AFTER APRIL 21ST, THANK YOU TO ALL MY PET PARENTS FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND UNDERSTANDING! • IMPORTANT - Parents, if you’re requesting a meet & greet, I will show up at a location of your choice that is not my home for safety reasons, if I feel comfortable and safe, we can proceed to a second meeting at my home. Please present a fully completed profile, this helps sitters know that you’re an actual parent, thank you to all pet parents! • My rates are still the same, I am not here for money, I do not make my living off of Rover. • I offer my home to pets of traveling pet parents so they can feel at ease knowing that their furbabies are safe, cozy and well taken care of with my family in our home. • I love what I do and the experience of meeting new furry paws! With that said, any person requesting my services must maintain a level of respect, If I am made to feel uncomfortable or I’m disrespected in any way, I have the RIGHT to DENY services, NO EXCEPTIONS. 🐾🐾🐾 • I am a huge animal lover and have experience with many breeds of dogs and other pets and animals. •I grew up on a farm and have dealt with a variety of animals and currently have a small flock of chickens, ducks and guineas (There’s no interaction between the birds and dogs) separate from the backyard which is pretty large. •I’ve taken a course in first aid for pets including CPR for small and big dogs. •I have taken care of small and big dogs always with constant supervision and child safety gates. •I never crate a dog unless it is requested and a crate is provided. All stays are welcome to sleep on the furniture and beds. •I am a stay at home mom and I have lots of free time to offer, also, I am also an introvert. •Three of my kids are also involved with walking and cuddling with pets, they keep each other company so it’s a win win! • Furry paws are not left alone and there is always someone at home to supervise. ***dog wash available upon request and is free of charge during stay. 🐾 ***please insure your furbabies are treated with a flea and tick preventative! We live in a wooded area. 🐾

Maribel & her daughter took care of my 2 small dogs, small (15 lbs) to toy sized (12 lbs). Both made me feel comfortable leaving my babies & seemed patient when 1 of my dogs had “loose stools” upon my return. Reality, Lizzie, my English Toy could have chewed anything at their house or mine. She likes to eat slippers or plastic caps (I didn’t think to warn them about the plastic, just shoes or slippers). She let them stay away from bigger dogs & cuddle with her kids :) It was the 1st time I left my rescues in over 4 yrs. I appreciate her caring thoughtfulness. I also hope Lizzie didn’t eat her daughter’s Barbie or Barbie purses! I’d definitely book again.

Maribel is fantastic! From our first conversations to the time I picked my dog up she made me feel extremely comfortable. Maribel wants to make sure that your animal is happy and I can say when I picked my dog up she looked like she had fun. Thank you and I highly recommend!

Information Maribel V. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences as long as all pets are vetted, healthy and friendly, they are welcome in our home. Inform me of any medical issues I need to be aware of, an itinerary with a feeding schedule and care guide is very helpful. If there is any medication that needs to be administered, I am comfortable as long as directions are provided. *PUPPIES! Puppy guests should be 9 months+ under 50 Lbs and HOUSEBROKEN PLEASE, spending all day cleaning and washing soiled dog linen takes away from other guests time, we want to give them the best experience possible. ***There is a big dog, small dog ratio, we can have a mix but less big, more small if that makes sense, we only take in what we can handle. Have a Pawsome day!

A typical day

Some dogs love to dig holes in the yard and hide things in them, play fetch, take walks through Trestle Trail up the street. Some like car rides and we sometimes visit pet shops for treats if permitted by pup parents and occasionally drop by the dog park. Some doggies just like to relax and lounge like couch potatoes, getting them good o’l ear scratches and tummy rubs. Also lots of cuddling and watching movies starring dogs. ?
