Pet care experience

I love to love your critter-babies

My passionate adoration, curiosity, respect and LOVE for all "critters" be they furry, scaly, slimy, feathery, reptilian, amphibian, insect or even plant has always been an innate characteristic of my being and purpose, and I'm lucky to have extensive experience with all of these incredible creatures :) (Please feel free to inquire further and I'd be happy to share more details!) I'm a nurturer without any babies of my own to love, so I have endless love to give to yours if given the opportunity, which would truly bring me a bonkers amount of joy. I'll undoubtedly do my best to spoil your baby to your standards, (at the very least ;), for you while you're away, and I'll check in with updates of any sort as often as you'd like.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a small apartment but it's cozy and ample enough to provide safety and lots of love. I'm located in a very central area of Buffalo, Elmwood Village, so plenty of potential for safe and quality walks. I'm also experienced with house-sitting if that works better for you and your critter-baby. Either way, your Baby will be my top priority.

The only rover we will use! Communication is great, our dog loves her and she leaves our place clean and tidy for us when we come home which is never expected but always appreciated!

Marideth was so great with Butter while we were gone. She was patient with his shy demeanor and made quick progress building trust with him. She sent plenty of updates and photos which left our minds at ease knowing he was in such great care and doing well. Will definitely book with Marideth again!

Marideth was great with my bernedoodle Maple. She took excellent care of the house and left it very clean after a week long stay. She was very nice to work with and sent lots of pictures and updates. Will definitely be rebooking with her again next time I go out of town!

Marideth was absolutely amazing with my boys (cats) while I was out of town for the week. Both of my cats currently have medical requirements - one needs an inhaler daily for asthma and the other on multiple pills. I know this can be a tricky role for anyone to step into and navigate. Marideth handled this extra task with confidence and care. She kept me updated with photos and messages and made sure both my boys were happy while I was away. It was such a huge relief to have her there and know they were in capable hands. She went above and beyond and I absolutely will be booking with her again!

Marideth was so great with my pup while I was away! I was nervous to leave her with someone but Marideth took great care of my dog and I felt very comfortable leaving with my dog in her care. She was very responsive and sent plenty of pictures so I knew my pup was happy while I was away! Would highly recommend!!
