About Martine D.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
We have a single door leading out of our apartment (into a hallway) which always remains locked. We have a large ventilated bathroom that can be used as a quiet calming space if needed, although we prefer to have your pet around to play/cuddle with (if they’re into that!) We both are very respectful of personal space, and are great at slowly building trust. Our space is organized and uncluttered. House plants can easily be put out of reach if needed, and small toys/magnets are put out of reach as well. I’m very used to baby/toddler-proofing homes as I used to be a nanny and I have a curious child, so pet-proofing comes quite naturally!
Home
Information Martine D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any special needs or behaviours ahead of time, so that we both have the best and most comfortable time possible. Some examples include: excessive panting/snoring, limping/twitches/etc, medication, language understood by the pet (if it’s not English, some important commands/praises), signals about needing to pee, signals for fear/discomfort, habits like chewing on furniture/rugs/shoes/etc, comfort level on busses/trains, etc.
A typical day
We’ll go on a few walks to explore the parks around my neighbourhood and beyond. For those who are up for it, we may go on a hike nearby. With the beach a short bus ride or 30 minute walk away, this is also an option for those who like playing in the sand. When we’re home, we can relax in my quiet apartment and look out the window at the visiting birds.

Caring pet sitter in Åkarp
Pet care experience
I grew up with many pets, and am longing to spend more time with them. For 10+ years I lived with and cared for dogs, cats, birds, horses, hamsters, and bunnies. My 11 year old son and I were longer-term live-in pet sitters for a number of different dogs, and I also have experience working with dogs and cats in a vet clinic. My son and I adore animals and look forward to meeting your pets! I’ll be the primary care provider, and will supervise all interactions with my son.
Cat care experience
Martine also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Martine took realy good care of Pugsley. Can only recommend!
Very calm and nice person to talk to, updates during the dogs stay, Our dog had a great time staying here.
All went great; I think all the dogs enjoy it here! I was very nervous about leaving our dog as it was the first time, but Martine was cool and had a calm son who took it easy with Siri, who is very stressed and fearful.
Alltid pålitlig, vänlig och min hund älskar Martine.
