Biggest Animal Lover

Pet care experience

My name is Maya and I currently live here in San Luis Obispo, CA. Ever since I can remember I have been fascinated by animals. I was fortunate to grow up on the island of Kauai, Hawaii, which allowed me to have a hands on experience caring for animals from a very young age. I worked on a farm caring for goats, chickens, pigs, sheep, cows, horses, dogs, cats and many other animals. Back at home I had animals of my own to care for as well, including multiple German Shepherds and cats, which I still have to this day. I began pet-sitting during this time in Hawaii and have continued to do so here in SLO, California. I have volunteered at multiple animal shelters including the Ventura County Humane Society. As a pet owner myself I believe our animals are a part of our family and I will make sure to note your pet's special needs and routines so they will comfortable and cared for when you are away. My availability is very open and flexible at the moment. I am available every day of the week. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your pets!

We love Maya and our dog Gracie adores her too. This was the first time Maya spent the night with Gracie and I felt so at ease knowing she was keeping Gracie safe and entertained. As well as having a great house sitter.

Maya was punctual, kind, and able. We will definitely want her to walk Luna again!

We really really love Maya. Our dog Gracie took to her immediately and she's a very cautious puppy and isn't used to anyone other than us walking her. So we were delighted that she easily connected to Maya.

Maya has lived with and been around dogs her whole life. She is very knowledgeable on the care of dogs as well as many other animals. Maya is also extremely dependable and she can be counted on to be on time as scheduled.

I cannot care for dogs in my home at this time. But I do have a dog friendly car and can take them for a long walk, a trail hike, or even the dog beach.

Information Maya D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog has any sensitivities, triggers, and of course what brings them joy as well. I understand and have experience with all kinds of dogs.

A typical day

We'll play a bunch of games, check out the new smells in the neighborhood, explore the beach or a local hiking trail! I like to tune into the unique needs of every dog. I have done lots of training with my own dog and feel that I have a lot of valuable skills and knowledge to bring to yours.
