Mariana C.
I have a lifelong background in animal care, both personally and professionally. I previously owned a rabbit, which taught me the importance of gentle handling, proper diet management, and maintaining a clean, safe environment for small animals. I have also had multiple cats, giving me experience with feline behavior, feeding routines, litter maintenance, and recognizing subtle signs of stress or illness. I currently have a dog, providing me with daily, hands-on experience in exercise, training consistency, grooming, and overall health monitoring. I genuinely enjoy going on long walks with dogs and ensuring they receive the physical activity and mental stimulation they need. In addition, I assisted with farm work through my uncle’s work, where I helped care for larger animals and learned the importance of responsibility, consistency, and strong work ethic. These combined experiences allow me to confidently provide dependable, compassionate care for animals of all sizes.
I have been pet sitting since I was 10 years old, when I began assisting my mom with caring for pets in our community. Over the years, what started as a shared responsibility grew into a genuine passion for animal care. Through hands-on experience, I have developed the skills and confidence needed to independently care for a wide variety of animals. I have experience with dogs, cats, small animals, and other household pets, both from owning pets myself and from caring for others’ animals. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, administering basic medications, cleaning living spaces, maintaining exercise routines, and providing companionship to ensure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. Now that I am 15, I am ready to begin pet sitting independently. I am responsible, attentive, and committed to maintaining each pet’s routine to minimize stress and provide consistent, reliable care. My goal is always to treat every animal as if they were my own, giving them the patience, attention, and respect they deserve.
