Ratings and reviews
Third stay and this one was a longer international trip. Daisy always runs right into Martha’s home indicating she just loves it there! We always miss our pup while traveling but Martha makes us at ease knowing Daisy is well-cared for while we can’t have her with us.
Martha was wonderful! I felt completely comfortable leaving my boy in her care. She sent pictures and provided daily updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. She was attentive to all of his needs and took great care of him. It was clear he was in excellent hands the entire time. I truly appreciated her communication and dedication, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy pet sitter!
Martha was great with Lily! She took great care if her and Lily warmed up to her quickly. She was very communicative and clearly has a heart and passion for dogs. I would definitely recommend!
My pup loved hanging out with Martha for the day and was happy and tired when we got home
Martha was awesome watching Theo for the day. She sent us updates throughout the day that gave us piece of mind he was doing great. She was also accommodating to his fear of storms. Will definitely be using Martha for our dog services in the future.
We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Martha. She provided great updates throughout Daisy’s stay making us feel at ease and able to enjoy our travel. We’ve already pre-booked for our next trip!

Schedule
I work remotely. I’ve been with my company for 26 years. I am able to work flexible hours which allows more hands-on with pets & breaks.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a lean fenced backyard & 2200+ square foot home. Dog door. Spend time with them, play, and make them feel secure and part of the family.
A typical day
Number one, walk the dog. number two whatever the dog likes to do I will have to get feedback from the owner. I can accommodate most activities if not all.
- 0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsDogs over 1 year oldSpayed and neutered dogs onlyNo females in heatCrate-trained dogs onlyTakes only 1 client at a timeMartha can host up to 1 pet per night
- I believe dog walking is very important. I constantly talk to dogs, I feel it shows the dog that they are constantly acknowledged. I will do my best to get acclimated with the dog and then accommodate what the dog likes to do and doesn’t like to do. Client’s input is a huge help. Taking photos /videos during care with a description of how the day is going and for behavioral changes if any is important and it brings comfort to the client. Access to calm quiet settings is very important as well. I have plenty of room for that
