Peace of mind while you are away!

Pet care experience

I currently play the role of a very cool Dog Aunt to my parent’s dog, Blue, and my sister’s dog, Gryff but I grew up with two labs and a calico cat. Over the past few years I have taken my love of animals and turned it into a small side business for extra money. I enjoy taking the pups for walks around the neighborhood but also have a big fenced in yard with plenty of room to run and play. I also have experience with administering medication to dogs with special health needs. I will also send you pictures of your furry friends to keep you updated while you are away! I also house sit for those without pets: water plants, fill bird feeders, grab mail and newspaper, etc.

Martha was super warm and caring towards our dog Bear. I can tell by the photos she shared and how relaxed he was after picking him up, that he had a good time at her place and was well taken care of. I appreciate the updates she gave and her willingness to accommodate his fairly specific dietary needs. Martha was also very responsive to messages before and during the dog’s stay. We appreciate her care and hope to book her again!

Martha is an absolute pro. She’s watched all of our dogs and our home for years. There’s no one I’d recommend more than her. Our dog can be a bit finicky, and doesn’t like to eat when we’re not around. That’s not the case at all when she’s with Martha. Martha takes her on walks, plays with her, and treats her as if she were her own pet. Martha also sends us pics of our dog while we’re gone. I can’t say enough about how amazing Martha is.
