Maya has been helping me take care of my dog for years now . He just lights up when she comes in the door, he just loves her. Maya speaks doggy, massaging them and brushing them talking to them and being super attentive to their special needs. Our dog has a really thick coat and she would frequently find burrs caught in his paws or by a joint that would aggravate him. When taking him to the dog park she also was very attentive to who the other dogs were and as he got older that noone challenged him or was aggressive with him I recommend Maya unequivocally for any matter concerning your pet. Although young she is super responsible,just loves animals and is eager to please
