Hi! I'm a DC professional (general manager of a small business) looking to do something fun and fulfilling with my mornings. I've grown up with dogs, cats, rodents, and currently have two cats and several fishtanks, so I am well acquainted with general and specialized pet care. I am fit and familiar with DC's walkable areas and trails (commute by bike when the weather's nice) so perfectly capable of walking dogs for short or long distances, whatever is necessary! I love big dogs and have no allergies, so any size is fine by me. I also obviously have a lot of experience with cats, including administering both oral and injected medication. I am more than capable of basic fish care and freshwater changes, and able to identify some common illnesses (fin rot, bloat, etc) that people who don't have tanks may miss in such small creatures! I have 60+ plants in my house so I am also capable of plant care if you need a housesitter who will care for them in an educated manner - I'm familiar with the demands of higher need plants like calatheas and ferns, know when to leave less thirsty plants like snakes and zz's alone to keep from risking root rot, and even come with my own moisture meter. I love living things and their care, and would love to take care of yours! I do have experience with children (oldest of 4) and can help out with some light babysitting, although more comfortable with helping out around the house some mornings to take the load off! I can prep simple meals, tidy up, do laundry and dishes, and am fairly handy if you need shelves hung or a wall painted!

"We were incredibly grateful that Maya was able to help us out with a last-minute childcare emergency. She matched our 9-year-old's energy with arts & crafts, some quiet reading, and a walk around the neighborhood. We'd have Maya back in a heartbeat!"
