Availability

I was employed at a dog boarding and training facility, where I gained lots of experience caring for animals. I am currently a college student and Missouri State University, so my availability during the school year is dependent upon my class schedule! I also work at a vet clinic during the school year so it is also dependent on that schedule.

Information Maya D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if the dogs normal behavior (if they're aggressive to dogs or other people, if they are normally good on a leash or not, etc.) I would also like to know how long they can be left alone since I do have work and school!

A typical day

I absolutely love spending as much time with the pets that I watch as possible. I love to go to parks, take them on walks, and play with their favorite toys and will happily do those with them if you requests any of those activities!

A genuine and excited pet lover!

Pet care experience

I've taken care of cats, dogs, birds, hamsters, since I was 8. I also worked at a dog boarding company for over two years before leaving for college, and spent my time taking care of boarding, training, and daycamp dogs! I currently work at a vet clinic while in college, where I take care of all kinds of companion animals. My friends and family members have consistently relied on me to watch their pets when needed!

Mya did an amazing job watching the boys while we were gone! Sent us updates and pictures! The boys were in very good hands. She also left the house very nice to come home to! We love having Mya!

Maya’s fantastic! She did an excellent job with our senior dog and the house. It is such a relief to have found someone like her. It takes so much stress off me, knowing I can travel & leave everything in good hands. Maya is kind, responsible, a good communicator and left everything in great condition. And I think our dog misses her already! Can’t wait to hire her again.
