Your Pet's New Best Friend

Hello! I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember. I started dog sitting and walking for friends and family as a teenager, and I’ve now been caring for dogs professionally for several years. I understand that every pet has its own unique personality, so I take the time to help them feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for. Whether it’s an energetic puppy, a senior pet who needs a little extra patience, or simply plenty of playtime and cuddles, I treat every dog like they’re my own.

Safety, trust & environment

I always follow each dog's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free. In your home, I'll make sure they have water, food, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. For dogs staying with me, I I live in an apartment with no yard, so I focus on providing dogs with plenty of outdoor walks, exercise, and enrichment throughout the day. I make sure dogs get regular walks for potty breaks and activity, plus playtime and attention indoors so they stay happy and comfortable. I always follow the dog's normal routine and keep owners updated with photos and messages.

Maritza cared for our 2 huskies, one that needs extra care due to both rear legs having had surgery. We received daily updates on how they were and on our return home, Maritza checked in with us to ensure we were back with them, which is both thoughtful and highly valuable. Maritza is more than capable of handling / caring for larger dogs and we're very grateful for her.

Maritza was awesome. My lil man has high anxiety and she was great with him. Cubbie and I sure appreciate you being available for him/me. Leaving him with and knowing he's with someone I trust, is immeasurable. She is busy, but hope she can hangout with my boy again.

I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive care throughout the day. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your dog company, I can easily fit their routine into my daily schedule and make sure they get the attention they deserve.

Please, let me know about any special requests or anything important about your dog ahead of time. That way, I can make sure I’m giving your dogs the best possible care and attention.
