Safety, trust & environment

I'm very adaptable to a client's personal plan for the rules of the house. My cat is currently an outdoor cat so they're free to venture in and out as they please but I always have a watchful eye.

Information Mario V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there's any special diet or medication or maybe just a particular way you want your pet taken care of. Very flexible and always willing to listen.

A typical day

I love playing with the animals and going on walks, whether it's around the block, in the yard or at the park. With cats it's more about giving them attention and making sure they're active and playing with some toys if possible. Also, always willing to send fun photos and videos so you know they're having the best time.

Pet care experience

Pet lover, caretaker, and all-around animal whisperer! I'm here to share my passion for four-legged friends and help care for your beloved pet when you can't. I've had pets since I was a younger from dogs and cats to rabbits, all which required me to feed, clean or take out to use the restroom. I've also cared for friend's pets while they were away from short to long periods of time.

Our babies loved having Mario around. He made me feel confident that they were being taken care of while I was away. I even think he cleaned a bit while he was there.

We are anxious about our pets but with Mario we both felt at ease while on vacation knowing the he was there to take care of them. Mario sent us videos every day which we loved. Thank you for taking such good care of our girls!
