About Maria

Experience: 5 yrs

Caring for animals is more than just a job for me; it's a passion! With 5+ years of experience with taking care of friends/family's pets and a lifetime of having pets of my own. I prioritize each pet's comfort and happiness, treating them as if they were my own. I strictly follow all feeding schedules as directed and manage high-energy breeds with active play, and am vigilant in observing any signs of distress. In emergencies, I communicate immediately with you and prioritize quick, responsible decisions. My kindness and empathy help me connect with shy pets, ensuring they feel comfortable and loved. I'm a mom to a 4-month-old baby boy and a 7-year-old Dachshund/Plott Hound mix named Darla. I'm bilingual, fluent in Spanish. I have a background of working in healthcare and veterinary medicine. I find joy in offering peace of mind to pet owners, and I look forward to meeting your furry family members!
