About Marilia P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I’m totally comfortable with pets of all breeds and sizes and I’ve got plenty of experience giving meds to both dogs and cats (no sweat!). During my drop-in visits, your pet can count on fresh food, clean water, potty breaks or litter scooping, any necessary meds, and most importantly… loads of playtime, snuggles, and TLC. I’m all about making sure your furry friend feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. As a fellow pet parent, I know how reassuring good communication is. That’s why every visit comes with plenty of cute photo updates and a detailed report of how things went. Need me to water a few plants or grab the mail? Happy to help at no extra charge!
Information Marilia P. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any dietary restriction or behaviors that I should be aware of. I always ask for a meet and greet before booking to make it sure we are a good match!
A typical day
I’ll play a lot of games with your pet and have lots of cuddles. Drop ins include potty break/litter box cleaning and play time. I can also water plants and get mail.

Warm Heart for Every Pet I Care For
Pet care experience
Hi there! I'm Marilia, a long-time pet parent with 10+ years of experience taking care of pets and also volunteering at animal non-profit organizations. I'd be thrilled to take care of your fur babies! Aside from being a mom to a sweetheart pitbull rescue named Lola and two senior cats named George and Ringo, some of my experience with animal care includes fostering bottle-fed kittens for the Williamson County Animal Shelter and volunteering at Safe in Austin taking care of special needs cows, pigs, goats and dogs. Before moving to Cedar Park I lived in Virginia where I had the opportunity to volunteer at EquiKids, a non-profit organization that offers therapeutic horse riding for kids. I'm a professional photographer, who's currently taking a break and focusing on spending more time surrounded by animals, which is a deep passion of mine, but as a photography lover, it means that I always have my camera with me and I'm ready to snap lots of portraits of your pets during my visits :)

Reviews

Our pup truly enjoys getting to see Mary! Mary is attentive and spends time with her!


Marilia is amazing! Would highly recommend. She took care of our two kitties, one of whom is incontinent due to his many health issues. She’s very attentive to detail and great with cats!

Our pup loves Mary so much! We know Mary takes the best care of our girl. She truly cares about her and leaves the best messages about her.

Mary is the best! She plays with our pup and we know she’s well taken care of always!
