Pet care experience

Athletic High-Energy All-Dog Lover

I have grown up around pets, including dogs, cats, bunnies, hamsters, etc...but my most favorite are DOGS 🐕 of course! (We can all agree...) I have an affinity and a knack for "winning them over" and LOVE to talk to them, understand their behavior, read their signals, and act accordingly. I am extremely intuitive and high-energy. The combination of these two makes me ideal for dog & cat sitting, because when they're with me, they're going to have fun and be understood! 🐾 I also babysit (children) quite often, so I completely understand that a pet is your CHILD. I have utmost patience and respect for these furry children. Parent certified and approved over here 🙌🏼 Also, it’s worth noting, I communicate and I send pics. There's no reason to be out of the loop. #pleasebecool If you have questions, 🗨 just ask. I LOVE spending TIME with dogs, taking them on quality walks and runs, 🏃🏼‍♀️ or even on special car trips to parent-approved areas! 🚗 ☀️ As long as they are in my care I will make sure they get a lot of love and exercise, and YOU will get lots of picture updates about the fun they're having. I look forward to caring for your beloved friend! Send me a message and we can set up a time to meet-n-greet and further discuss your needs. 🐾 Some of the following will be: Is your dog potty trained?  What commands do they respond to? 
 Any allergies?  Any behavioral issues?

Safety, trust & environment

I prefer to house-sit in the dog’s familiar environment, because they are so much more relaxed in their own home versus if they are introduced to a new place with unfamiliar smells, etc. I have plenty of referrals and recommendations to attest to my trustworthiness. Basically, I'll treat your home like a stellar AirBnb hotel maid guest, sans cleaning fee 🧼

Marya is great! Very attentive and caring! My dogs needed someone to come check on them in the afternoon. She was been very communicative and makes sure they get some love and attention!

Dog Walking • Jun 18, 2026

Marya has been the most wonderful dog walker for our energetic pup Luna this past week. Luna was staying with her grandparents while we were away and Marya gave her the fast paced walks needed to wear out her puppy energy. Marya’s communication was fabulous and I so appreciated her stepping in to help every day. Thank you!!

Hattie was exhausted when we got home- I could tell she was loved and cared for and Marya did a great job communicating through the stay.

Marya was by far the best river we’ve ever had. We’ve had a few in the past that weren’t great, so we were hesitant to use the service again, but we will absolutely use her again! We came home to a completely clean house, very happy dogs, sheets clean, and more. She is THE BEST option!!

Leo loved spending time with his sitter. I was provided with regular updates and photos. I could tell he was a happy host in our home. She even worked with him on our training routines.

Schedule

I’m currently working part-time, and dogsitting is one of my ‘gigs’ so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I work online from home mostly, but if I’m on the go, I am never gone longer than ~ 3 hours. ⏰ If allowed, I am more than happy to take your fur baby with me. I usually say “if mom or dad are going on vacation, you get a vacation too!” so they are free to tag along and adventure with me on errands, to the beach, or to a friend’s house if they are friendly and so-inclined. I love giving dogs the opportunity to socialize, but only if it’s allowed. 🐕

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs

Marya can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors (or any -gasp- flaws) that would help me anticipate the stay. ?
