Pet care experience

Trusted STL Dog Sitter + Walker

I have loved dogs for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. For the past several years, family members, neighbors, and friends in the St. Louis area have trusted me to check in on their dogs, feed them, play with them, stay overnight when needed, and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their people are away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m kind, patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs of all personalities. Whether they want a long walk, playtime, cuddles, or just calm company. I truly enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and routine. My goal is to make your dog feel comfortable and cared for and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands.

Maya was fantastic! She did a great job caring for my dog for a few days. She kept me updated and made my nervous dog feel at home. She was very friendly and I could not have asked for a better sitter!

Maya was terrific with our Bella. She helped us out last minute when we had to go out of town and took great care of our pup! Will definitely call on her again in the future!

I've known Maya for over 15 years and I can confidently say she is one of the most reliable, trustworthy, and caring people I know. She has a natural love for animals and treats every pet with kindness, patience, and genuine affection. Whether it's making sure they get plenty of exercise, sticking to their routine, or simply giving them lots of attention and love, she always goes above and beyond to ensure they're happy and well cared for. She's attentive to each pet's needs and personality, making sure they always feel comfortable and safe. I would trust Maya without hesitation to care for my own pets. If you're looking for someone who is dependable, responsible, and treats pets like one of their own, I can't recommend her highly enough.

I’m currently searching for full time employment so I’ll have plenty of time to play and take care of your pups! There are occasional weekends where I have family things to attend but please reach out and ask! I have pretty open availability.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, medication if needed, playtime, and any house rules. I make sure pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m attentive to their behavior, energy level, and comfort, and I’m happy to provide updates so you know how your pet is doing. I also treat every client’s home with respect and care, keeping things clean, secure, and exactly as instructed.
