About Maryann

I offer sitter or walking services because I enjoy interacting with animals. Since childhood, my family has kept various types of pets at home. I understand how much detail, time, and patience goes into looking after a pet and the uncertainty of having strangers look after them.

I've nursed dogs and cats (with instructions) with special requirements (Parvo and gastric) and am willing to look after aged pets that need extra care. I am also open to look after pets that requires additional care or attention, to the best of my abilities. My meet and greets are usually the time where I will ask for more details of your pets, their history, existing medical conditions, and quirks, while observing them in your presence. I've had the privilege to understand animal behaviours from my own experiences and the experiences of numerous pet owners who have engaged my services; many are now friends that I keep in contact with.

Pet sitting services will include feeding, cleaning of litter/poop/discharge, and play time. I usually update pet owners on a daily basis on the behaviour of their pets via texts, pictures, and/or videos. Even if you have special considerations or requests, don't hesitate to drop me a message! Please check my calendar of availability to prevent any disappointment, if you are in urgent need of a sitter and I'm unable to meet your required date(s).

Unfortunately, I have relocated to Malaysia where Pawshake isn't offered yet. I hope to be able to return to the community soon if Pawshake reaches here or at my next move!

Very happy with the care Maryann gave for our little cat. Updates with every visit and loads of photos, which was great. Would recommend to others.

Maryann was amazing with my moody insulin dependant diabetic cat. She was patient and kind to her and kept every clean and tidy. My girl needs two insulin needles a day and Maryann was great at working in with her schedule and handling the needles. Highly recommended. I have piece of mind when I am away and Maryann is on the job.

+20 years of experience
Pets which have suffered through trauma or have a distrust of humans due to abuse or negative experiences need time and patience. I have rescued abused puppies and slowly integrate them with the help of our own dogs. I've volunteered at a no-kill shelter for all animals (dogs, cats, fowl, horses, cats, etc.) for about 4 months while studying abroad. I've experienced caring for pets with gastric, poor eyesight/aged elderly, and no bladder control as well. I do not believe in hitting animals unless it is absolutely necessary to stop an aggressive/lethal behaviour or threat.
