Pet care experience

Caring & responsible pet sitter

*** Not taking on new clients at this time (as of November 2025)***** I have over 20 years of combined experience caring for both cats and dogs of many different ages, with some specific skills around training reinforcement for dogs. Growing up, I cared for my own cat as well as cats and dogs in the neighborhood. As an adult, I have cared for both cats and dogs and done extended house-sits for clients and friends with cats. I have my own dog, named Billie, who is an 8-year-old german shepherd/lab mix. I love animals of all kinds, and love to get to know animals and help them feel safe, cared for, and joyful/playful.

Maya is an extremely kind and reliable pet caregiver. She always had a very calming presence with my dog Jerry and to reinforce his routines and structures. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a dogwalker and dogsitter!!

Maya is wonderful with dogs. She is patient and kind and respects their individual personalities and needs. She is also responsible, reliable, and communicative. I would definitely recommend hiring her to take care of your pet!

Maya is an exceptionally kind, reliable, and punctual caregiver of all pets. She supported me in many moments with my best furry friend, an elderly Siamese cat. She will follow directions (even the most mundane and specific ones!) and stay in communication and not only make your pet happy but help you be at ease while out of town. She also took excellent care of several dear friends' dogs while they were out of town or needed help while recovering from surgery. She is a very reliable dog walker and pet-sitter in my community!
