Safety, trust & environment

I have one friendly dog, but unless you request a playmate for your dog, or we discuss beforehand, they will stay home. I am very good with instructions/taking notes if you don’t leave set instructions. I will respect your wishes and always be communicative if an issue arises. I believe you know your pet best and I will respect your wishes down to the T whether that be in regards to their walks, their feeding, their home treatment or anything else. I’m here for your pet and your peace or mind!

Information Maya E. would like to know about your pet

I like all creatures and am happy to work with high needs pets, as well as pets with behavioral issues. Big dogs are no issue, I truly like (and work with) the full range.

A typical day

I tailor my activities to what your pet needs. High energy? We can go to a private pod at the dog park, or a fast paced walk. I’m also happy to do lazy dogs who just need a yard outing, as well as daycare, social groups, and overnights.

Pets

Long time islander & animal lover

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Maya. I am 28 years old and grew up on the island. I’ve had animals all my life and know how to care for and pamper them. I believe our animals are additional family members and are to be treated with the same respect and love we give to our human family members. I love long walks on the beach (or forest or neighborhood), playing fetch, and just generally loving on your animals. I currently have medically sensitive pets so I am capable and adept at giving medication, surgery recovery, food allergies & skin issues and more.

For those of us who have anxious/quirky rescue dogs, we know that it takes a special person to understand and “get” our dogs — and Maya is that special person. Maya took such good care of our two girls, taking her time to earn their hard-won trust. We felt so relieved knowing Maya was caring for our dogs while we were in the city for our first vacation without our girls in many years! I cannot recommend Maya more. Her patience, gentleness, and appreciation for funky dogs is made obvious in how clearly relaxed and chill our dogs were in her company. Thank you, Maya!

Maya is a great communicator and was able to connect with the cats at the level and in there space. Everyone either care and attention.
