Safety, trust & environment

My family home has a large yard and loving members of my family to give extra love. I am very active and don’t mind lengthy walks. Animals of all sizes and behavior types my specialty as I work with them almost every day!

Information Maura F. would like to know about your pet

In my opinion it would be how well they are on a leash, name recall if they get loose/ pull away, how well they are with other animals, Certain triggers (touch, sound, feeding, etc), allergies and how friendly they may or may not be to new people (more so for when on walks and entering the home). Same goes for cats with medications, new people, their personal needs. Anything your pets may need, I am very open to being there for them.

A typical day

I love to go on hikes of all ranges, depending on the dog and the amount of socialization weighs in on where to go. Trails around the area are a go to for me, there is a small dog park down the road from me but anything from throwing a ball to hide and seek. It truly depends on the dog and their needs in regards to their activity needs. I have 2 cats of my own and are more than happy to cuddle or also play with them.

Pet care experience

I’ve had animals (of all shapes and sizes), I am looking for a job to cater similar services to my major (animal behavior). I have had big dogs and teeny tiny pets, please do not worry about size.

Maura took wonderful care of our elderly dog, Bixby. He has many special needs, but Maura made sure he received all the attention and care he required. Your furry family member will be in great hands with Maura.

Leaving your pet without someone is never easy. But leaving them in the care of Maura would be one of the best things you could do for your pets. She lovingly cares for all animals. Giving them love and lots of attention whenever she is around. She cares for young and old pets, even those with special needs and always does so like they are her own. Highly recommended!!
