Maria provides a multitude of pet sitting services to include Doggie Day Care, Dog Walks, Animal Boarding, Dog and Cat Home Sitting, and Drop-In Visit services.
A drop-in is a 30-minute visit to your home and can include a walk within that 30-minute time slot, if requested at no additional charge. The drop-in time slot can be shortened to 15-minutes or extended to 60-minutes and the rate would be adjusted accordingly. If you need a drop-in longer than 60 minutes, Maria can try an accommodate as well.
Unfortunately, Maria is allergic to some cats, as a result she unable to board or house sit kitties however, she will offer drop-in visit service for our feline friends.
Dog walks are 30-minutes from the time Maria arrives at the front door to the time she returns from the walk. Dog walks can be shortened to 15-minutes or extended to 60-minutes and the rate will be adjusted accordingly.
House sitting is where Maria stays at your home and watches your animals. This type of service reduces any potential stress your beloved pet may experience because he or she remains in his or her primary residence.
Maria networks with two other pet sitters for any overflow business and she will let you know if she needs one of them to take over in case of emergency or as a back-up. If Maria is unable to accept the service, she will refer you to one of these pet sitters.
Maria understands, pets may require medication from time to time. She is willing to administer non-injectable medications during your pets stay or home visit. She is experienced in giving oral (pill, capsule, and liquid) medications as well as liquid eye and ear drop medications.
Maria will administer medications by means of hot dogs, cheese, pill pockets, etc. For pets who will not easily take their medications, Maria will not jeopardize the safety of herself or the pet by forcing the animal to take medication of any type. If your pet’s health is dependent upon medication and he or she is shy/skittish or aggressive, Maria suggests boarding him or her in a veterinary clinic where they will receive the medical attention they require.
