Safety, trust & environment
I am happy to follow any and all care instructions as requested. In your home, I’ll stick to your pet’s routine—feeding, crating, walks, playtime, and any special care they need.
Information Marti Z. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your pet has any special needs, medical conditions, or behaviors I should be aware of—such as anxiety, medication requirements, favorite routines, or any quirks that make them special!
A typical day
I’m always up for long walks, games of fetch, tug-of-war, and exploring new scents outdoors. If your pet enjoys cuddle time, I’ll happily provide belly rubs and cuddles. For cats, I'd love to play with them and their toys or offer a cozy lap for napping. I respect each pet’s unique needs and boundaries.

Reliable and Caring Pet Sitter
Pet care experience
I have been caring for dogs, cats, and chickens since I was 10 years old! I grew up with lots of animals in rural New Hampshire, and my primary job was taking care of our pets. I’ve volunteered as a dog walker in Somerville and have provided reliable care for my friends’ and neighbors’ pets. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or attention, I try to ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you're away!

Reviews

Marti is absolutely wonderful! She house sat for me and took great care of everything. When my flight back to Boston was impacted by a major snowstorm, she was incredibly flexible and accommodating, which made a hectic travel weekend so much less stressful. I’m so grateful for her reliability, communication, and kindness. I would book with her again in a heartbeat!


Marti was the absolute best with both of our dogs! They each require a lot of care as one is older and the other is 9 months. She did an amazing job of looking after our pups and our home and we are so thankful!

Marti house sat for us over a holiday weekend and took amazing care of our pup and our home! She was quick to respond and sent us photos of their walks. Thank you so much Marti! We will definitely reach out again.

Marti was awesome! She was great with updates and pictures of the pets. We have a dog and a cat that she took care of for the first time while we were away for 4 days. She stayed at our house as well. Our home was clean and orderly when we returned as well as very happy pets!! We will definitely use marti again!
