Come explore (& play with Mabel :))

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Martina :) I’m 25, currently located in Bellingham, and have a 2 year old spunky German Shepherd named Mabel, and two kitties Mira + Maggie! I’ve cared for many friends’ and family’s pets over the years, volunteered in various animal assistance programs, spent many hours on farms, and grew up with a yellow lab named Max and a cat named Ella! The three of us were inseparable, and they taught me a lot about how to care for, train, and become attuned with animals. Speaking their language is key :) Familiar with K-9 CPR/First Aid.

Thank you so much Martina! Your calm and happy energy was so appreciated and I know my dog had the best time with you and Mabel!

Murray (our Mini Schnauzer) had such a wonderful stay with Martina and her sweet furbabe. We are often in Bellingham for outdoor activities some of which we can't bring our little guy along for and we were so happy to find Martina. We'll be back soon!

Martina was so kind and flexible! My pup had a fabulous time and it is clear that Martina has a huge heart for dogs. I definitely hope to stay connected for future sitting needs.

I cannot recommend Martina enough! As an owner of a spirited German Shepherd myself, I was delighted to find someone who is not only experienced with this breed but also shares their home with a German Shepherd. From the moment we met her knowledge and understanding of the breed's unique needs and characteristics were evident. She knew exactly how to handle my dog's energy and strength, while also providing the affection and companionship German Shepherds need. During the stay, she kept me regularly updated with photos and reports on my dog's activities and well-being. It was comforting to know my dog was in good hands, enjoying walks, playtime, and even some basic training reinforcement! Coming home to a happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved dog was the final testament to this sitter's exceptional care. I will undoubtedly be using her services again and recommend her to any German Shepherd owner in need of reliable, knowledgeable, and compassionate care for their pet.
