Safety, trust & environment

I will follow any guideline you set for your animals in order to keep them safe. I will not give them anything unapproved, and I am familiar with signs of distress or illness in animals. This will help me to make sure your pet is doing well in my time watching them. I can accommodate for longer walks for high energy dogs, or lots of indoor play or cuddle time. I can be calm and patient with animals that are slow to trust new people, and will take the best care of your pets!

Information Martina G. would like to know about your pet

If there are any behavioral concerns with your pets, I am still willing to work with them, but would like to know beforehand so I can accommodate for it.

A typical day

Going on walks with plenty of time for sniffing around will be a great enrichment for your dog. If it is on a day with reasonable weather, I am also willing to go on a run with your animal to help get some of their energy out!

Martina was excellent! She took great care of my dog and cat, checked in diligently with pictures and details of each visit, and always responded promptly. Martina will be my first contact the next time my pets need care!

Marti was heaven sent. I only needed her for one visit and she was very accommodating and took care of my pup.

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.
