Safety, trust & environment

I will follow every instruction you have in order to provide exceptional care for your pet in your home. I am a very neat, tidy and organized person. I will only pet sit in a clean, safe and secure home. You can be assured your home will be left as clean and organized as when you left it.

Information Martie M. would like to know about your pet

I’ll want to know their temperament and how they like to be interacted with. I’ll want to know about their diet restrictions, medications and if they are allowed treats.

A typical day

I’m happy to play with your pet, give them puzzles or toys. I enjoy going on walks as long as they are leash trained. I will continually give them love & affection. Make sure they are fed, watered and safe. Whatever their preference is. I love taking photos, so you will get a lot of cute pictures of your pet!

Pet care experience

I love all animals. I’ve primarily had rescue cats & dogs and wish I could save them all. I’ve bottle fed abandoned kittens and rescued pregnant cats. I have experience with an abandoned, abused and anxious dog who needed patience and compassion on a daily basis. I’ve taken care of a variety of dogs from tiny chihuahua’s to large labradors & Dobermans. Each one with a personality all their own.

Martie was amazing! It was our first time being away so long and having someone house sit and care for our elderly dog and energetic cat. We received so many pictures, and so many good ones! She put our mind at ease. And she was so responsive with communication. Should we need this service again there is no doubt we would want her!

Martie was AMAZING. I immediately felt comfortable with her and knew she would love on my pup. She sent tons of pictures throughout the stay. She had a nice set up so I knew he would have fun. I was also extremely thankful, because she was very accommodating to my unpredictable work schedule. Highly recommend. I will definitely be using her again.
