Highlights
Pet care experience
Animals lover grad student!
I have a deep connection with animals and a natural ability to understand their needs. I volunteer at Best Friends Pet Shelter, where I continue to learn, care for, and connect with different pets and personalities. I am also a yoga teacher, so I bring patience, calm energy, and responsibility into everything I do. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness are always my priority. For boarding, I only care for pets from one family at a time. That means your pet will be the only one staying with me, so they can receive my full attention and feel safe in a calm environment. If you have two cats or two dogs from the same family, I am happy to care for them together.

Mariia is family and a wonderful sitter to our fur baby. So grateful we found her.
Mariia was very accommodating to my little kitten Timmy! He really liked his time there, and she was very accommodating to him
Mariia has been incredibly helpful, caring and loving for our baby Rome. She was very agile and flexible with many changes in our trip , and took full care of our dog , kept us posted with everything and had a very fast response every time we asked about him. Mariia is not just a rover she is family to us.

Schedule
I work hybrid, allowing flexibility to meet your pets in the mornings or after 5 PM. On weekends and holidays, I’m home and could be available all day
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
With my flexible hybrid schedule, I have time to care for your pet, whether it's a cat, dog, or other. Just let me know their routine, and I'll make sure it's followed perfectly.
A typical day
A typical day would include making sure the pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from the owner. Outside, I would take them on a nice walk, give them time to enjoy the fresh air, and make sure they feel safe and comfortable. I would also avoid other dogs while outside unless the owner says otherwise. At home, I would play with their toys, give them attention, talk to them sweetly, and call them cute names to make them feel loved and relaxed. My goal is to keep them happy, cared for, and comfortable while their owner is away.

- Important things I’d like to know ahead of time are whether the pet has anxiety, barks when left alone, and how they interact with other dogs outside.
