I have a special bond with animals!

Pet care experience

I tend to have a special bond with animals, especially with dogs and cats, and we usually warm up to each other very quickly. I especially do well with pets that have anxiety or need extra patience, comfort, and reassurance, and I’m able to provide a calm environment since I’m home for most of the day. I’ve always loved understanding their personalities and caring for them, which is one of the reasons I’m planning to turn my passion for animals into a career as a veterinary technician at St. Petersburg College, and I’ll be here for the summer!

Maya took wonderful care of our Ella. She communicated with us very well and regularly sent us pictures and updates. Ella was relaxed and happy when we returned home.

Maya was great! She took a last minute booking and was able to come meet our pup before the visit. She followed all directions and our puppy had a blast with her. Would def book again!

Maya was wonderful! Followed all instructions and really took time to care for our pup, would highly recommend her for dog sitting and will definitely have her come back to care for our dogs in the future!

Maya did an outstanding job for us. She accepted a last minute request, which included a 6-day stay at our home while we were out of town on vacation. She connected very well with our 72 pound medium Bernedoodle, giving him lots of attention and care. Everything went smoothly and she remained focused and supportive to the end, even when our return flight was delayed by 3 hours. Thanks again Maya.
