I am a student athlete at VIU with very flexible class schedule. I am taking geography so any chance I can get outside with a friendly dog to appreciate the natural outdoors I take it! I love experiencing new parks, and environments and will go above and beyond to find a spot that fits with your dogs behaviour and lifestyle!

About Maya L.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have the mentality that a pet is an equal and family member. I have patience and manners when it comes to commands and allow for trust to created and earned. I believe they will treat you how you treat them within reason, and will consistently be creating a relationship. My style of ownership is ensuring that my pet feels apart of most of my everyday life. Exposing my pet to all outdoors I have access to, friends and family gatherings and daily errands.

A typical day
I live a very active lifestyle! With preference of owners I am a big fan of fetch in a dog friendly park! If dogs fitness allows I would take them on runs around neighbor hoods. Cuddles, hide and seek and much more play inside is also accessible to me!

Skilled, Reliable Dog Caregiver
Pet care experience
What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with dogs of all ages—from high-energy hunting dogs to senior pups who need extra patience and care. I’ve raised a litter of puppies, spent years around training dogs, and feel confident handling dogs with different temperaments and needs. I have a flexible schedule, I’m originally from Saskatchewan, and I truly love dogs of every size and personality. Your pup will be treated like family.
Reviews
Maya was wonderful! She was incredibly kind and caring, and it was clear our dog adored her. We really appreciated the regular updates she sent—they gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We’d happily recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter!
Maya was prompt to answer and was reliable! She was great with my dog and I would absolutely use her again.
Maya has been around dogs her entire life and has always gone the extra mile to exercise, care for and train the dogs in her life. Employers consistently comment on her strong work ethic and dependability on the job, always willing to go the extra mile to get her work done. While very sensitive to animals, she also understands the importance of discipline in order to keep dogs safe. She’s an avid outdoorswoman and lives to move. She’s dependable and a joy to have around. Both you and your dogs will love her!
I’ve had the chance to see Maya care for dogs firsthand, and she is incredibly responsible, patient, and interactive. She consistently shows a natural confidence around animals and always makes their safety and comfort her top priority. Whether it’s going for walks, following routines, or simply giving pets the affection they need, Maya can handle it with ease. I have no doubt she would make an excellent pet caregiver or dog walker, and I would trust her with any of my own pets.
