I have experience dealing with cat ailments and giving administering medication, as well playing with cats with various energy levels.

To be honest, I bet they're gonna be disappointed to find out we are back because of how much fun they had with Taylor. She's quite a photographer too, detailed photo reports always made our day. Highly recommend :)”

Since this was our first time leaving our pets with someone else, having someone reliable and trustworthy was super important, and she was great. Everything went smoothly, and I’d definitely reach out to her again if we need help in the future. 🐹🐹”
“Alison treated our cat very well while we were away. She was able to give him his medicine with no issues and sent us lots of photos of them playing. Our cat can be a bit feisty, so it was great to see her manage him so well.”
About: I am an absolute dog-lover and will provide your pup with the care and affection they need. I am open to pet sitting, dog walking, or quick pop-ins. If your dog loves walks and exploring the outdoors; if you need a reliable dog sitter; and if you want to have confidence in your dog's safety while you're away, please contact me and I would be thrilled to discuss what works best for you and your pup. I work from home and am available for walks most days of the week, with flexible timing. I can dog sit week days and weekends with proper notice.

I do offer stays at my home, however the dog must be house trained but I have great walking areas around me and a small backyard.

I've raised 3 puppies, and worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility, so I know all about keeping fur babies safe and happy. I have my own Golden Retriever who LOVES to make new friends!

I am also available during the week in the mornings and evenings. My main concern in safety. Before bringing a dog into a new environment, I ensure that there are no foreign objects that are potentially harmful that a dog could ingest. I also have experience with determine dog behavior: whether they feel threatened, anxious, etc. I make a commitment to all dog owners that I will keep an eye on their pets to the best of my ability, especially if I have observed concerning behavior. I believe communication with the owner is the most important aspect.

“I could not be happier with Maria and Caesar. My dog, Gary, can be a nervous little guy but by day 2, he was already happy to see Caesar at drop off and Caesar was excited to see him too! Maria sends me pictures and updates every day Gary is with them which gives me peace of mind while I’m at work. They’ve been really flexible with drop off and pick up times and have even accepted last minute bookings. I can’t say enough good things about Maria and Caesar and if Gary could talk, I’m sure he would say the same.”
