Pet care experience

Care for a pet as one’s own 🐾🐾

Unique qualities that set me apart from other sitters: Individualized Approach: I understand that each pet is unique. I can adapt to their needs, whether it’s a little one, a senior pet, or a pet with special requirements. Love and Care: I genuinely care for each pet as if they were my own. I’m ready to provide them with all the necessary care and attention. If you have any additional questions or requests, feel free to ask!

Received pictures and updates daily. She did a nice job keeping my dog feeling safe. She can be a nervous dog. She was happy in all the pictures

Mariia took care of our dog Yoshi for 19 days and she was great. She communicated with us every day, sending pictures and updates. Yoshi was happy in every picture she sent and he seemed very happy when we arrived to pick him up. I will definitely book with Mariia again and would definitely recommend her.

Mariia watched our little senior pup for a few days and took very good care of him! She was flexible and agreed to watch him with short notice. She followed all instructions exactly and sent daily pictures and updates. Our little guy seemed comfortable and at ease when we picked him up. We would definitely use Mariia again!

Schedule

Daily Routine: Morning Walks and Feeding: I start the day with a brisk walk and feeding. This helps my pet get some energy and nourishment to kickstart the day. Playtime and Training: I incorporate time for play and training to keep my pet physically and mentally fit. Midday Breaks: If possible, I take a break during the day to let my pet out for a bathroom break and some fresh air. Evening Walks and Feeding: Another walk in the evening followed by dinner. This helps my pet burn off any excess energy and prepare for a restful night.

Safety, trust & environment

In My Home Comfortable Environment: I ensure my home is pet-friendly, with safe spaces for pets to explore and relax. Routine: I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, walking, and playtime to help pets feel secure and comfortable. Socialization: Pets have the opportunity to interact with other animals, which can be beneficial for their social skills. Monitoring: I keep a close eye on pets to ensure they are healthy and happy, addressing any issues promptly. In the Client’s Home Familiar Surroundings: Pets often feel more comfortable in their own home, so I follow their usual routines and habits. Personalized Care: I tailor my care to the specific needs and preferences of each pet, ensuring they receive the attention and care they are used to. Communication: I keep the pet owner updated with regular reports and photos, so they can feel reassured about their pet’s well-being. Safety and Security: I ensure the home is secure and that pets are safe, following any specific instructions provided by the owner.
