A true caring animal lover

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs, had a dog when my kids were small. Watch my sisters dog and have had a rescue for almost a year. I also spend many years with cats. I’ve been asked to feed and walk friends dogs. I’m experienced with puppies and all energy levels of dogs. I also helped take care of my sons two German Shepherds for several weeks in my home while he was out of the country.

We're so grateful to have found Martha. She has done drop in visits as well as house sitting for us and every time we've used her she's been prompt and reliable and has provided excellent care of our two more than slightly spoiled rescue dogs. We highly recommend her.

Martha has cared for our two active dogs, my koi, my plants, my greenhouse, and my home when we have been traveling. The dogs love her and she is attentive and observant of their health. She takes them out for walks and snuggles with them just as we would. My home was clean and welcoming on our return. I highly recommend her for her reliability, integrity, and kindness. You will not find a better pet sitter.

We cannot say enough good things about Martha. We have two rescue dogs, one of whom is elderly, blind, deaf and diabetic on insulin. Lucy requires a great deal of care and it's rare to find a pet sitter who is willing and able to meet her needs. Martha is that person. She is caring, reliable, kind, competent and asks questions appropriately. She recently provided overnight care in our home which allowed us to visit out of town family. We're truly grateful to have found someone who we trust to take excellent care of our precious girls. We highly recommend her.

I trust Martha 100% with my cats. She treats them as if they're her own. She loves them, gives them medications whenever needed, and snuggles with them at night, and doesn't mind being woken up by their snuggles! I have complete peace of mind leaving my cats with Martha. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
