Maria brings heart, patience, and a calming presence to every visit — and animals feel it. Whether she’s supporting a reactive pup, caring for a medically complex pet, or helping a shy dog open up over time, Maria shows up with kindness and intention. Her ability to build trust — especially with pets who’ve been through a lot — is just one of the many things that makes her such a valued member of our team.

She’s Pet Care Certified and Pet First Aid & CPR certified, with experience supporting senior pets, special medical cases, and multi-pet households. One of her proudest wins? Gaining the trust of a blind, reactive dog who now melts into her arms. For Maria, it’s all about the little moments that build connection.

In addition to her hands-on work with pets, Maria also supports our team behind the scenes as our Administrative Assistant. From welcoming new clients to managing day-to-day logistics, she helps keep things running smoothly with the same care and thoroughness she brings to every visit.

Her philosophy? Pet care starts with safety, trust, and love — and those values guide every decision she makes, whether she’s securing a front door or sending a new client their first welcome email.
When she’s not on visits or rocking her admin role, Maria’s probably bonding with her own dogs or soaking up quality time with family.
