Flexible schedule, loves doggos

Pet care experience

Growing up, I always had a dog (or dogs) in the house. Between my parents and two older siblings, we have 5 dogs in our family! However, due to restrictions on my lease, I have sadly been dog-less for years. So, I will happily spoil your pupper while you're away from home! I've lived with a schnauzer, a German shorthaired pointer, a cavalier King Charles spaniel, a yorkiepoo, a miniature pinscher, and several mutts - so I have experience with a wide variety of dog sizes, energy levels, and temperaments. Is your dog a little high maintenance or high-strung? No problem! My parents' dog is a rescue who has anxiety as a result of abuse, and he has a looong list of "do's and don'ts" we have to follow to keep him calm. I'd love to sit down with you and hear about your dog's likes and dislikes, so I can make sure they're happy as a clam while you're gone. I'm also a runner, and while I don't usually run with a dog, I can run with your dog if you request it. I work in retail and my schedule changes from week to week, but my days are generally flexible. Whether you need me for daily drop-ins to walk your doggo or will entrust with your house-keys while you're gone for a weekend, I'm your gal!

Maura did a wonderful job of petsitting my cat, Kanye, who has a complicated feeding schedule and a medical condition that means he needs pills every evening. He's not an easy client, but Maura provided exemplary, loving care. I could tell she did a great job because Kanye wasn't very excited to see me when I got back--he had found plenty of loving attention from Maura. I was so sad she moved, but Columbia's loss is your gain! I can't imagine a more responsible, kind, and detail-oriented petsitter and housesitter.

Information Maura L. would like to know about your pet

No breed preferences, but with dogs 50 pounds and up I would like to converse about how well they are trained, how easily excited or startled they are, etc.

A typical day

Your dog can expect endless belly rubs! I will happily take any walk routes you frequent with your pup, or will explore the neighborhood or a nearby park, with your permission. I can play whatever games your dog enjoys, or just sit and hang out on your couch. (My family's dogs are super lazy and mostly just want endless cuddles and a warm lap to sit on.)
