Highlights
Pet care experience
Paws Here, Walk There - Best of PDX
As an experienced pet care professional with more than 20 years of hands-on experience, I’m here to provide dependable, heartfelt care for your pets. Years ago, I ran a full-time pet care business while raising my young children, and now that my kids are getting older, I’m excited to return to this work I love so much. In addition to pet care, I own a small design business, which gives me the flexibility to create a schedule that fits your needs—whether that means daily check-ins, long walks or in-home overnight stays. At home, I share life with two energetic Australian Shepherds and one sweet (sometimes anxious) Chihuahua-Collie-Poodle mix, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your animals. I’d be honored to help keep your pets happy, comfortable, and well cared for.

As the current owner of 3 dogs and 20+ years experience caring for animals, I am a great choice for your pet care needs. I am not offering care in my own home, but can come to yours for daily visits / walks and am sometimes available for overnights in your home.
Ratings and reviews
Maya was great with my recent adoption who had strong separation anxiety.

Maya was great taking care of our elderly, skittish cat. She is reliable and good at administering Eva’s meds even though it was her first time sitting for us. We received daily photos and updates regarding any issues. I highly recommend Maya.

Maya was wonderful with our cats. She gave them treats, attended to all their needs, and clearly took genuine care to make them happy. I felt completely confident leaving them in her hands


Maya is amazing and caring! I really appreciate her flexibility as well.


Highly recommend Maya - she's great with our pups and has remained reliable, helpful, and flexible with our schedule!


Very flexible, helpful, and a great communicator - thank you for taking such great care of our pups!
