Safety, trust & environment

I can’t host pets in my home due to roommates, so all of my care takes place in your pet’s own environment where they feel safest and most relaxed. I’m very mindful of routines and instructions, and I make sure doors, gates, and feeding schedules are always handled carefully. Since I work from home, I can coordinate visits around my work meetings and spend quality time with your pet, making sure they feel secure, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

Information Maya S. would like to know about your pet

It’s helpful to know your pet’s personality, energy level, and any routines that keep them feeling secure. Please share any behavioral quirks, anxieties, feeding instructions, favorite toys, and medication needs so I can tailor my care to them. I want to make sure I show up in a way that matches your pet’s comfort level and helps them feel safe, understood, and loved from the very first visit.

A typical day

A typical day with your pet depends on what they enjoy most. I love mixing in walks, playtime, enrichment games, belly rubs, and calm companionship. I follow your pet’s routine closely whether that means morning walks, midday play breaks, or quiet afternoon cuddles. Since I work from home, I can plan visits around my meetings and spend quality, focused time with your pet so they feel happy, relaxed, and well cared for.

Pet care experience

I’ve lived with dogs and cats for over seven years and currently share my home with two dogs and two cats, so I understand all the different personalities, quirks, and needs that come with each furry friend. I’ve cared for pets of all ages and energy levels and have five years of experience as a dog owner myself. I’m comfortable giving medications to both cats and dogs, keeping routines consistent, and adjusting my care style based on your pet’s unique character, whether they’re shy, playful, energetic, or a senior who prefers gentle company. Above all, I’m loving, patient, and attentive, and I treat every animal as if they’re my own.

Maya was very kind and communicative! She took great care of our two dogs and cat, one of which takes meds daily. Everything and everyone were well cared for. Thanks Maya!

Maya was great! She came early to meet with Ryder before we left on our trip. She communicated very well throughout the weekend and followed all the instructions on routine, meds, and play time. I was nervous because Ryder was on new medicines with a lot of side effects and wasn’t as friendly as normal but she handled it with grace. We got loads of cute photos which gave me a lot of comfort. I will certainly use her again and recommend her to others.
