Pet care experience

Happiness comes from cats

I’ve grown up with Rusty, my 20 year old cat, and he was my love. He recently passed and we miss him so much. I have always been entrusted by friends to take their kitties, and to me, it doesn't feel like a job. I get to hang out with cats for work. That is a privilege. With my experience in Rover sitting, I have been able to become best friends with so many kitties across the city as I try to make them feel like they are at a home away from home. Safety and well-being of your pet is my number one priority.

This was my first time meeting and using Martina for the care of my cat, Toby, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was incredibly responsive, kind and very sweet with Toby. I’m so happy to have found someone I can rely on and now I can travel knowing Toby has a safe and loving place to stay. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of him.

Martina is such a fantastic sitter! Momo was taken great care at her home, along with photos and videos everyday. She is also very considerate and patient to accommodate changes from my side. Glad to have her sit my cat!

Martina was absolutely fantastic caring for my older cat who can be somewhat moody and shy. She made him feel at home and very comfortable. In addition, She agreed to a last minute multi-day booking and was fully willing and able to help administer some meds via eyedrops and food. She sent lots of photos and videos, and did both a timely pick up and drop off. I would highly highly recommend Martina to anyone with cats of any age, especially older ones.

Schedule

I work part-time and I’m pursuing an online Masters so my days vary, but for the most time I’m away from home a few hours a day.

Safety, trust & environment

My mom and I are very close and she comes to the house very much. She’s always around for extra love to your pet. There is a park just a few blocks from my home that I would gladly take your dog on walks to.

A typical day

I play with them with strings, balls, and whatever they like! Please feel free to bring any toys, cat condos, scratchers, beds, that they like so that I may exercise with them.

Cats
Martina can host up to 4 pets per night
Please let me know if your cat has any special needs and I will accommodate them. It is important to talk about that to make sure I know exactly what care he needs.
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.
