Loving home for your pet while you

I've had pets all my life. They make the world a better place. Your pet will be treated like one of the family. They can be on the furniture and they can sleep with me if they are used to that. I'm retired and at home so they will have attention all day. I have two well balanced dogs (rescues) which get along with all types of pets. If your pet has special needs it will definitely be loved and accommodated here.

Martha took good care of our two little senior dogs. Allowing them on furniture and in bed is important to make their stay as "home like" as possible, and we really appreciate that.

Martha has been an absolutely fantastic dog sitter for both of my dogs, Max and previously Bella. Bella passed away in March, and Martha went above and beyond by sending me additional photos of Bella that I didn’t have, which meant so much to me and showed just how caring and thoughtful she is. She always keeps me updated with regular messages and photos while my dogs are in her care, which gives me complete peace of mind. I always feel secure knowing that my dogs are safe, happy, and well looked after with her. Martha has such a warm heart and a genuine love for dogs, and it really shines through in the way she cares for them. Both Max and Bella required medication during their stays, and administering this was never a problem for Martha. She was always attentive to their medical needs and I felt completely confident that they were receiving the care they needed. Max absolutely loves staying with her, and I know he is treated like part of the family. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Martha again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, reliable, and compassionate dog sitter ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Martha is a lovely woman. I gave her a lot of instructions for my senior dog, and she was very careful, following the instructions and keeping me updated throughout my trip as well. This is my second time with her, and both times I felt comfortable having my dog there!
