Safety, trust & environment

I will care for your pet as if they are my own. That's the least we can ask for when we invite people into our homes to care for our fur babies. Rest assured, your fur baby will be like my fur baby!

Information Maurica J. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences as long as initial meetings go well with the dog. The main things I would like to know about a dog are how well they have been socialized (are they good with other dogs), have they had any other dogs be aggresive toward them, and do they have any food aggression or known triggers.. Also if you'd like me to work on commands, just show me what to work on and I can reinforce training.

A typical day

I can take your pup around your neighborhood and really anywhere you are comfortable letting me take your pet. I'm open to activities with their toys like tug-of-war, frisbee, ball, and water activities if you're open to it and the pet is comfortable with it.

Pets

The friend everyone gets to pet sit

Pet care experience

I have loved animals my entire life. I'm typically the person friends ask to watch their animals - dogs and cats alike - as I am comfortable with both. I volunteered at a cat shelter for 2 years and have leash trained and worked with dogs on commands/discipline for the last 3-4 years on and off with friend/family pets. I genuinely love dogs and would like to channel that energy into taking care of other people's dogs - the benefits of dog ownership, without actually owning a dog!

We’ve now had Maurica visit our cats on two separate occasions and she’s awesome! She treats our cats just as we would if we were there and is always great to send photos and respond to messages. She leaves our home much neater than our last sitter did and has been very trustworthy with our house keys. Definitely keeping her on our contact list!

Maurica was so nice and communicative the whole time. She went above and beyond for Addie and we felt very comfortable with her

Maurica went above and beyond to take care of my two cats for an entire week! One of my cats has health issues and the other has major anxiety and Maurica did an amazing job tending to both of them. She provides lots of updates, videos and photos. I’m so happy to have found a great pet sitter!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
