Martha kept my dog Buster for 10 days. She took such good care of him, even when he had an upset tummy. She always sent me updates and photos each day. I would definitely recommend her to other dog owners that are in need of a sitter.

We had never used Rover before, but decided to try it after we had a family emergency come up. Martha was very accommodating on such short notice. We also appreciated the pics & messages she sent us to update us on our pup. Thanks Martha!!

Martha is an absolute gem! This was the first time I left my pups with anyone and I was very apprehensive to do so. My wife and I contacted Martha, baes on others reviews and wanted to get to know her a little. She agreed to do a meet and greet so our pups could be introduced. She was absolutely lovely the minute we met her. We decided to book Martha for 2 nights prior to our big family trip as a test run. Our pups did great. Martha provided photos and updates and made sure our pups were loved and attended too. As for our big family trip, our pups stayed with her for 6 nights and didn’t want to leave! Not only did she give them all the love and attention, she really made us feel at ease know our pups were well taken care of. I will be booking with Martha and only Martha moving forward. She really is a tremendous asset to the Rover community and your pups will be in amazing hands!

We are so fortunate to have found Martha! Our two dogs stayed with her for several nights and had a great experience! Martha sent us photos and updates daily. It was obvious when we picked up our dogs that they had been well taken care of. They were happy, clean and healthy. Now we check to make sure Martha is available before we plan our trips! Highly recommend.

Martha was fabulous with our little Piper! She took such wonderful care of her and her home and beautiful fenced in yard was great fun for Piper to run around in! Martha kept us in the loop by sharing many pictures of Piper having a good time! We felt so confident with Martha that we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves with no worries! We will definitely be using Martha’s pet sitting services again!

Took great care of our dog for 4 days. He was very happy throughout the stay, especially playing with their dog Bailey.

Schedule

Very active and willing to provide daily walks or allow pets to play in the fenced in back yard. For those social pets who enjoy playing with other animals, my two mini dachshunds will enjoy new friends or the pets can be superstars within the home.

Safety, trust & environment

I generally only accept two pets at a time to ensure each one gets all the love and attention they need. Can provide crate service if preferred for sleeping and when I step out. Plenty of outdoor play time. Your pets will have someone with them throughout the day and night with the exception of errands or short periods away during the day. Dogs will feel at home and get the attention and care as if you were with them.

We’ll walk and get plenty of exercise as requested. Play and snuggle time are an ongoing activity throughout your pet’s stay. Relaxing on the deck and enjoying the sun is also in the mix.
