Hello there, My name is Martha and my experience with dogs is mostly loving and living with them. I’m able to do as you wish for your pet, and be as accommodating as you need me to be. I have always been raised with dogs and have a genuine fondness of each unique species that I have encountered. I’d like to have the chance to meet you and yours. Thank you for your consideration. Regards

Martha was fantastic with our four legged family members. We came home to a happy cat and dog and our home well taken care of. She communicated daily, sent pictures and even brought a toy for our pup. On time and flexible when we needed to change the start time.

Martha has helped house sit for us multiple times and done a good job with our animals. She’s attentive to instructions and accommodating, especially as we had work being done during one of her stays. We appreciate her services!

Martha was so incredibly patient and loving with our Dexter! He has some quirks and anxieties but Martha was so understanding and great at ensuring he was comfortable. We received daily updates throughout the weekend and it was so nice to have those check ins. This was the first time Dexter has stayed with anyone other than our family and overall it was a great experience!

It was such a relief to have Martha at our house the week we were gone. She sent us frequent updates and photos, and left the house cleaner than when we were home! Her care of Marley, our mail, our house was very much appreciated. We'd love to have her care for our buddy again in the future.

Our golden loved Martha and so did we! She administered meds, dinner and kept our nervous guy company - We are looking forward to having her again!

Martha took such great care of our dog, Kip, and our home while we were away for the weekend! Kip is a high energy dog that requires a lot of attention, and Martha was so great with him! She sent us lots of pictures and updates too. We'd definitely work with her again :)

A typical day

My schedule follows what the dogs tell me they like to do. We get the hang of each other quite quickly👏🏻 Thank you for your thought and look forward to meeting and greeting with you. I live within a miles walk from Seapoint Beach and Gerrish Island. The beach walk and surrounding neighborhood are excellent for long and short adventures and play on or off leash. Taking care of Your pets is my full time role and I absolutely love them as if they’re mine. I myself do not own a dog or cat. My home has two Jack Russel terriers, Pierre and Seamus. Lively, playful, mischievous little terriers who are beach friendly, yet must be considered with all boarding requests.
