Pet care experience

Full of adventures and attention

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.

Martin and his wife took amazing care of our two dogs. They were professional, communicative, and kept us updated throughout the entire stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. We were extremely happy with the care they provided. Thank you both so much for everything, and we truly appreciate your prompt responses. We wouldn’t hesitate to trust you with our dogs again!

Martin’s service remains excellent! He’s reliable, communicative, and has earned our trust and (equally important) the trust and love of our pup. We highly recommend Martin for pet care!!

Armin stayed with Martin and his family for 2 weeks. They also have a dog which I believe became Armin’s bestfriends. Picked up Armin today and he doesn’t want to go home with me lol! Thank guys for taking care of Armin.

Our dog Holly had such a great time with this wonderful family. She was well taken care and loved for the nine days. I’m sure she wanted to stay longer. Awesome experience and peace of mind with the updates and videos sent daily about your pet. Definitely recommend 10 out of 10!!

Martin was extremely reliable and walked our pup faithfully twice a day! Our home was respected and our fur-baby cared for which is what anyone leaving for vacation wants. I highly recommend Martin to anyone asking!

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.
