Pets

I love animals!

Pet care experience

I have had many pets since I was a kid such as cats, dogs, parrots, bunnies and even iguanas as well as taken care of pets from family members and friends. Moreover, I have taken care of my cat since he was a kitten 4 years ago and fallen further in love with cats ever since. Fun fact I trained him to use the toilet! I am very exited to become your cat(s) and dog(s) new friend, take care of them, play and most importantly show them affection and everything I’ve learned about animals. I am also open to other animals and learn in the process as new knowledge is greatly appreciated!

Mario is always so great with my cat. He makes sure the water is filled, litter is clean, & always cleans her food plates before each meal. Always rebooking him :)

Wonderful as always! Very communicative and caring towards Luna even if she can be a handful.

Mario was fantastic with Luna! He’s very communicative, responsible, takes tons of photos and give updates frequently. I needed someone to help me with walking Luna while I was at work and despite her being a handful, he was incredibly kind, patient, and undaunted by the task. I highly recommend him if you ever need someone to care for your fur babies.

Trustworthy and truly cares for my 2 year old shihtzu! Mario is one of the pet sitters that knows how to handle hard situations when it comes to pets and I thank him for it. Can’t recommend him enough!
