Highlights
Pet care experience
For me, the pups always come first.
Hi, I’m Maura! I moved to St. Pete about seven years ago and live in a house with a fenced in backyard. I joined Rover because I have the love of my life, Beans, my three year old Labradoodle, and he’s a basically my whole world. I’ve always loved animals, and I realized there are weekends when I’m just home spending time with Beans and I would be so happy with more dogs around! If I’m watching your pup, just know they’re treated like they’re at home. They can relax on the couch, cuddle on the bed, play fetch, and go on walks, whatever makes them feel comfortable and at home. I want it to feel like a fun, safe place, not like they’re away from their people. Beans also loves having a buddy around. Since I can’t get another dog right now, he gets a playmate, and I get to spend time with another sweet pup while helping you feel confident your dog is well cared for. Just contact me if you think we’d be a great fit!

Pets
Safety, trust & environment
My home is very dog-friendly, and Beans, my bestest friend, sleeps in my bed. Dogs I care for are welcome to sleep in my bed as well and are always allowed on the couches. I want every dog to feel like they’re truly at home, not restricted or treated like a guest. I have a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor time, and I’m also big on daily walks. I live in a very safe, quiet neighborhood, and dogs really enjoy getting out for walks and exploring. When dogs are in my home, they’re treated like part of the family, we live in the house together, relax together, and stick to a comfortable, loving routine.
Ratings and reviews
Great sitter and person, top notch!
Maura took wonderful care of our dog while staying in our home. She was incredibly caring, loving, and attentive to all of our dog's needs. It gave us great peace of mind knowing our pet was in such capable and compassionate hands. Throughout our time away, Maura kept us updated with photos and messages, including some great pictures of our goofy Doberman enjoying himself. Her communication and genuine love for animals were evident every step of the way. I highly recommend Maura to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring pet sitter. We would gladly have her care for our dog again! Thanks Again Maura. Todd and Carol
Maura is very caring and loves her pets. Her labradoole and our labradoole became instant friends. She took lots of pictures for us and walked the dogs. Thank you!🎅🤶
She’s the best !! 🐾🥳🤩
Amazing!! so happy we found such a great walker and new friend for River! 🥰
Maura & her doggie Beans are THEEEEE BEST! We booked last minute on a visit here to see friends and it was the best decision we could’ve made. Caymus had so much fun and was so loved during his stay. 10/10 recommend 🐾

Schedule
I have a hybrid work schedule, so I’m typically home throughout the day. I’m only in the office for about an hour each afternoon (from 4:30–5:30), which means I’m around most of the time to give dogs attention, take them on walks, and keep them on their normal routines. I start my mornings with the dogs and make sure they get plenty of exercise, care, and companionship. My home is also well set up for dog care. It has two separate living spaces, so if dogs ever need to be separated during the short time I’m away, each dog still has a full, comfortable living room, not a crate or small space. This allows everyone to feel relaxed, safe, and at home at all times.
