Martha took care of my big boy for 8 days and it was such a sense of relief seeing he was in great hands. She sent multiple pictures and videos of them playing and going for their walks on a daily basis. This was our first time using a service like this and we are very pleased. I would highly recommend getting in contact with Martha for your fur baby’s needs. She was excellent! 10/10 service ✨

Castle was like part of their family. Martha took magazine grade photos and videos of him having the time of his life. Very responsive and diligent to questions about his care that even I weren’t aware to inform on. I would recommend Martha to anyone who really cares about their pets well-being. Thank you again Martha for showing Castle such hospitality.

Martha was amazing with both my dogs. One of my dogs was in heat and both dogs are not fixed. She was able to handle both of them very well. She sent me plenty of pictures that seemed like a professional photographer ( which is a bonus because I can't get my dogs to look at the camera) and videos. She also sent me updates in the morning and evening. She played fetch and the dogs loves the huge acreage. They had a great time and I was less stressed as I felt they were in great hands. She also made pickup very easy and was so flexible as I had a hectic weekend. She is one of the best Rover sitters out there. I highly recommend!

Schedule

I currently work from home so I have an open availability at the moment. I had a dog of my own for 15 years, sadly he passed away of old age. Now I have lots of time to dedicate to other pets and give them attention and care as one of my own pets.
