Pet care experience

Dogs and cats love me I love them

My customers always say the dogs and cats take a liking to me and adjust well to me. Dogs also love when I take them for long walks in parks or just playing in the yard. Dogs also love when I brush them or when I pet them. Dogs know when to let me know they have to go out they always sit by me if i'm watching TV or eating. Dogs will also sit by me if i'm sleeping they like to come in to see if i'm OK or to cuddle. Your dogs and cats will feel relaxed when they lay by me, always looking to be petted and I help them feel safe when their owners are away. With me your dogs and cats get the respect and love they deserve and they look forward to me coming every time. During my 20 years caring for dogs and cats I have gained a lot of experience caring for different types of dogs and cats and their individual personalities. Many owners have commented on how after a visit from me the dogs and cats are more relaxed than with other sitters and call me first when they need my services in the future. When I’m lease training your dog I have a few suggestions on collars with owner’s approval

Marty did a fantastic job caring for my pets. He communicated regularly and often. He went above and beyond in making sure mail/packages were brought in and put out the trash for us. All of my pets loved him and were more than happy to have him here.

Great sitter! I’ve used Martin 3 times now. He follows any directions for care I have and my dog loves him.

Martin came to watch Arugula on short notice and she was happy as a clam when I got home. Martin is an easy going sitter that will keep your dog company in a calm environment.

2nd he has watched my moms dogs. Came home again to a very clean house and well taken care of dogs. I love that he sends pictures with updates while the dogs are under his care. Will use him again

Martin did a great job with our dog Sisi. She’s very comfortable with him and he sends daily updates as well as being respectful with our home. I highly recommend his services.

I like to know the dogs personality (friendly, relaxed or otherwise). I also need to know if the dog has any existing conditions that I need to be aware of. If the dog requires pills I would like to know how it is usually administered to maintain consistency. I would also like to know what areas of the house if any are off limits for the dog for consistency. Are they lease trained
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
