Hello! The first thing you need to know about me is I am an animal lover through and through! My whole life has been devoted to them. I raised and trained Leader Dogs for the Blind growing up, received my Bachelor of Science degree in Animal Science (Pre-Vet track), have over 7 years of experience working at animal sanctuaries, and petsit the companion animals of my family, friends, and neighbors. I treat every animal with the utmost care, respect, and attention, knowing they all have their own unique preferences, personalities, and needs. I believe animals are the most incredible beings with so much to teach us, and I feel it is such an honor to share the earth with them! I am a caring, conscientious, and driven individual who would love to care for your animals.

Maria was an absolute joy to have as a caregiver during her five months at a Farm Animal Sanctuary. Her love and dedication to the animals were unparalleled, and she truly went above and beyond every step of the way. From day one, Maria approached her responsibilities with diligence, care, and an innate sense of compassion. She effortlessly balanced the demanding tasks of looking after a wide variety of animals, ensuring their health, safety, and happiness. No matter the challenge, Maria was proactive, dependable, and always gave her very best. Her ability to connect with each animal was remarkable, and she consistently demonstrated patience and kindness. She was also incredibly detail-oriented, ensuring that each animal received the proper care, attention, and affection they needed. Maria’s efforts had a profound and positive impact on the sanctuary, and it’s clear she left it better than she found it. I wholeheartedly recommend Maria to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy, and dedicated caregiver. She is a true gem, and any family or organization would be incredibly fortunate to have her!
