Safety, trust & environment

I live in a house and have a good sized grassy backyard! My dog Rosie loves to play with other dogs. She just turned 1 so she is super playful and loves it when I watch the neighbors’ dogs 😊. We all have a great time playing fetch 😁! Dogs are allowed on furniture and can roam the house freely, but I do block off the top level with a gate, as it makes it easier for me to keep an eye on them.

Information Marta G. would like to know about your pet

I want this home to feel like your own dog’s home so please let me know of your routine and if there are any specific needs that your dog has.

A typical day

Nothing is more fun than early morning walks! We can enjoy the sights and smells of my neighborhood! My backyard door is also always open so the doggies can run in and out as they’d like! I have a bunch of fun toys from ropes to ball, squeaky toys and everything in between! In the evening we can snuggle up on the couch and enjoy some belly rubs.

A Home Away From Home ❤️

Pet care experience

We are a pet loving family! From fostering 5 newborn puppies until they were ready to go to their forever homes, to taking care of my own dog, well into his senior years, I’ve done it all! From bottle feeding to senior doggie diapers! 😊 I have a gentle and patient approach to potty training as well as extensive experience helping dogs overcome separation anxiety. ❤️ There has never been a moment where I didn’t have a pet in my home! I am often doggie sitting for my neighbors and friends too 😊. I live on a safe and quiet street. I have a wonderful grass backyard where dogs can run around and play! 😊 My doggie Rosie is a wonderful playmate but she gets scared of dogs caller than her so for that reason, I can only watch small to medium dogs (no Labs or taller).

We booked Marta for a 15-day stay while we were away, and we really appreciated how well she cared for Milo. When our flight was delayed, she was super flexible and had no problem extending his stay by an extra day, which was such a relief. She kept us updated with plenty of photos and messages, giving us peace of mind throughout our trip. She also shared helpful tips to keep our dog healthy. Overall, we’re grateful to have had her look after our pup and keep him happy and safe while we were gone!
