Reviews


Maya has got to be one of the best sitters I have had. My dogs loved her. She's trustworthy and took really good care of my dogs. I would recommend her
Maya is a wonderful pet sitter, she is responsible and very dog friendly! My kiddo loves her and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with her.
Maya is THE BEST pet caregiver! Her attention to detail and love of all animals is second to none. I always know that when our pets are with her they are in good hands and we never have to worry. She is thoughtful and makes sure our pets are taken care of just like we would (or even better!). She's the first person we think of when we go out of town and I would certainly recommend her to everyone!

I currently have a fenced backyard which also includes a cement area with a dog run/kennel section. Animals are allowed access to the entire yard for safe and secure potty breaks and play time. In warmer weather I have a kiddie pool that is for dog use, too. When your pet is in my home I follow your lead - are they allowed on beds and furniture? Then they can be on my bed and furniture. If you prefer they stay off furniture or be kenneled at bed time I will follow your instructions. If I am staying at your home - I will ask detailed questions on the daily happenings and routines of your pet while in the home.
Home
Information Maya S. would like to know about your pet
I always like to know what your dog does while you are gone for the day. Are they a snoozer, anxious, do they mark furniture it they smell other animal scents? Does your dog have any allergies or specific dietary needs? How do they react to humans (male vs female/child vs adult etc) they don't know. How are they if we run across a loose animal while on a walk? Are there any items that scare or startle your pet (my dog use to run from me if I picked up a cell phone to take a picture)? Are there things that help calm or soothe your dog when they miss you or are stressed? What is your pets preferred sleeping arrangement? Any limitations on physical activity due to health issues? Any unique habits or quirks that are important to know? Any training commands and cues that the pet responds to.
A typical day
I love to keep dogs engaged and using their senses. I love to take a towel, roll up pieces of their favorite treat then let them figure out how to get the treats. I like to play "find it" which involves treats in the yard where they need to sniff out the treat to get the reward (I will help lead them if they aren't use to using their nose). I like to practice basic commands like sit and down and reward them with their favorite toy, treat, or affection. If they like to play and retrieve - we can play until they are happily panting and ready to rest.
