Pet care experience

Experienced and Passionate

I have owned and fostered both cats and dogs my entire life, ranging from all ages and behaviours. Additionally, I was employed at the Edmonton Humane Society for almost 3 years, with experience in animal care, animal behaviour, and monitoring medical conditions. Most recently I worked at the BCSPCA for 2 years, providing care, training, and administering a variety of medical treatments. I absolutely love animals, and have a passion for ensuring they feel loved and comfortable. Because animals cannot speak for themselves, it is crucial that we understand their behaviours and act accordingly, which is something that I think is extremely important. I know that pets are part of your family, so I want to ensure that you feel comfortable and confident leaving them with me. Additionally, I know that it can be stressful for a pet to be away from its owners, so I want to ensure they’re comfortable and confident as well.

I highly recommend Maya for pet sitting! She cared for our senior cat while we were away for 2 weeks, sending regular updates, and often staying longer at the house to give more cuddles to our little one. I will definitely have Maya back again!

Maya looked after my two very shy kitties over Christmas. Although she didn't really get to see them very much, I loved getting the daily updates and photos! She also left my my place very clean, which I really appreciated. Would highly recommend!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I have been doing Rover full time, so my schedule is totally open! Lots of free time to think of more fun and enriching activities

Where your pet will stay

Safety, trust & environment

I understand that each animal has their individual needs and requirements for comfortability, and I always ensure I am meeting them. I have extensive experience in reading an animal’s body language, so I am always tuned into that to make sure they are not uncomfortable or stressed.

Pets

A typical day

We will go on walks through parks, to beaches, and around the city. I love playing with dogs, and will ensure they have plenty of mental stimulation and exercise!

I would like to know if there are any specific behaviour concerns, but only so I can better prepare. I have no behaviour or breed preferences!
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.
