Huge animal lover!

Pet care experience

My late husband and I chose to have canine and feline kids instead of human kids. Yes, that is how much I love pets. I communicate well with dogs and cats, I understand them and respect their space, needs and wants. I enjoy playing with them, walking them, and loving on them. I enjoyed taking my neighbor's dog, her name is Lucy, for walks and hikes for years. I also took care of one of my roommates' 3 small dogs, 1 cat, 2 bunnies, and 1 bird while she was traveling.

This is, hands-down, the most comfortable I have ever felt leaving our little fur child with somebody while we traveled away from home. He is 11 years old, and is a very good dog. But, he is particular about the people he spends his time with and we can tell when he is not happy. He took to Mary right away and seemed so content even when we left. He usually goes to a doggy daycare but because of the recent doggy virus going around, we decided to try having a pet sitter in our home. Mary is amazing. She took extremely good care of our little dog and left our house clean and tidy. She sent us pictures and stayed in close communication the entire five days we were away. What an amazing experience and I will definitely use Mary again and again in the future. Our dog was sad to see her leave, and will be excited to invite her back.

Mary was awesome with Selena. She is very punctual and great at communicating with updates while we are away. She is really great with pets. I would highly recommend her if you are considering a pet sitter.

Maribel is more than a dog whisperer; she's a canine communicator extraordinaire. In her care, our 13-year-old Australian Cattle dog, Cocoa, experienced a level of attention and love that set Maribel apart from the rest. During the five days of dog-sitting, Maribel's gentle approach and genuine dedication had Cocoa not just relaxed but genuinely happy. Unlike previous sitters, Maribel's unique connection with dogs ensured Cocoa felt at ease upon our return. Maribel didn't just walk Cocoa; she invested time and care, treating her as if she were her own. Regular updates and pictures during our trip showcased the dynamic bond they developed. If you want a dog sitter who goes beyond the ordinary, Maribel is the one. With her, you can truly relax and enjoy your time away, knowing your furry friend is in exceptional hands. Highly recommended by our whole family!
