Safety, trust & environment

I can’t do any boarding since we rent and they don’t allow animals. When doing house sits, drop ins, or walks I try to be consistent but everything pretty much varies depending on the person/animal.

Mariela is amazing! She’s the only one I trust with our senior dog and she takes great care of our house when she stays here. She is highly recommended.

As always, we got wonderful check-ins and communication from Mariela. Our kitty baby is well cared for while we are away and he has some medications he needs to take. Highly recommend her to trust with your fur babies. Thank you so much, Mariela!

I came home to a happy and healthy pup. Mariela sent many photos and kept us up to date throughout our entire vacation.

We are always happy to have Mariela pet sit for us. We have a senior dog who needs a little extra help and she always goes above and beyond making sure he is well taken care of and comfortable. All of our pets love her!

Schedule

I work as a medical assistant from Monday thru Friday. I usually for about 8-9hrs each day so if that doesn’t work for you that’s okay!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Mariela can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Any shape and size is welcomed! But it would be helpful to know if they are good with other people and dogs. Do they do anything that could be worrisome to someone who isn’t aware. For example, throwing up if they drink water too fast; things like that!
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
