Information Martin A. would like to know about your pet

I have cared for young energetic dogs and old loving dogs as well! I try to cater to them in any way I possibly can. I would like to know how they walk eating schedule and how they play with others. I try to take most dogs in my care on long walks. I never leave dogs unattended and I love to match their personalities and energy.

A typical day

I love to hike in the state parks with as many dogs as I can handle. I also love taking dogs to the many dog parks to make new friends.

Full of adventures and attention

Pet care experience

I've taken care of dogs since I was a little boy. I take my dog on walks at least 25 miles a week. I have a big backyard. I walked my dog at ALL state parks. I live 5 minutes from the Government Canyon where my dog and I have many adventures. My dog is well behaved on and off the leash, crate free, and plays well with others. I am an active person that loves to walk/run daily. I will match your dogs energy and empty your dogs gas tank.

Yet again Ripley had a great time while spending her time with Martin and his family. Took her for walks, hikes and bike rides. The fact she can socialize with other dogs as well is always a bonus. We will continue to use him in the future.

Really nice, friendly people and I felt like my dogs were well taken care of. We got daily pics and videos of their walks which was so nice. I definitely reccomend Martin and his wife! 😍 The only thing I'd have preferred would be having an opportunity to meet any other dogs he will be watching at the same time because I'm very picky about what dogs my pups are around and always meet up before hand to make sure they get along. His dog mamba was very sweet and friendly and got along great with ours.
