I’ve had pets who have had specific needs and health accommodations and would be more than happy to provide the same care for your pet if applicable.

Pet care experience

I have taken care of pets throughout my lifetime (dogs, cats, bunnies, turtles). I have provided pet care to friends, family, and neighbors and have worked with puppies/kittens, to senior pets with special care requirements. I am comfortable with small to large breeds as well as administering medications.

Mariya has been great with my dog Coco! She has handled his quirks well and shares detailed updates. Glad to have her hanging with him throughout the summer!

Mariya did a wonderful job checking in on our two cats while we were out of town for two weeks!

She took great care of my kitties! She even had the more nervous of the two interacting with her on the second visit. Very happy with that.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass an identity verification. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
