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!
Reviews
Maurica was great with our two kitties, sent pictures or videos everyday, and helped do little things around the house for us while we were gone. Would recommend her services to anyone who needs a pet sitter, will be using again!
Maurica did a great job taking care of our two dogs and cats. She is good at managing behavior issues and also helped us out when one of our dogs had GI issues during her stay. From taking her to the vet, a trip to the pharmacy, and lots of messes to clean up she didn’t bat an eye at the extra work and kept us updated the whole time. Would definitely recommend!
My dog is picky about strangers and he liked Maurica right away. She was fantastic with him. She sent several updates with pictures while we were away. I would be happy to hire her again.
Maurica was so good with the boys. They warmed up to her in no time! I would definitely book with Maurica again.

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 an 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.
