Highlights
Pet care experience
Qualified dog lovers looking for new dog friends!
We are a couple in our 30s that absolutely love dogs! Martine grew up with dogs in her family and has 5 years of experience as a dogsitter on Rover. Alex's family has had a dog for years and he’s used to looking after her. We are both self employed which means any dog in our care would spend hardly any time on it’s own. We love going for walks or runs and there will be no shortage of cuddles and play!

Ratings and reviews
Excellent communication from Martine, who looked after Tiggy extremely well. Tiggy enjoyed her stay!
Martine was a great sitter for Zephyr today. It was his first time with a sitter and she sent me an update within half an hour to reassure me that he was settled. The communication both before and on the day was prompt and thorough and the photos I recieved showed him loving his day with Martine & Alex. I would highly recommend them and Zephyr will be back. Thank you both.
Martine was a perfect sitter: great communication, and then kind, patient, and fantastic with Holly who came home happy and tuckered out after a day of play and care. I honestly couldn’t ask for more and will be a repeat customer whenever there’s a chance.
Martine and Alex were great hosts for George . They looked after him very well in hot conditions. We were very reassured and received many updates. Would not hesitate in recommending Martine and Alex. Thank you both
We used Martine for the first time on Sunday for our nearly 2 year old Maltipoo, Reggie! We have never left Reggie with anyone else other than family and Martine made this such an easy and calming experience! She offers meet and greets beforehand and ensures you know where your dog will be staying by showing you around her beautiful home and garden! Martine kept me up to date throughout the day with pictures and messages so I knew Reggie had settled in. I would highly recommend Martine to look after your fur babies! I will definitely be using Martine again, thank you so much for making it so easy!
Bussia had another fantastic stay with Martine - as always she looks after her brilliantly, and he always comes home a happy dog!

Schedule
We accept up to 4 dogs at a time, so if your dog can't be with other dogs we won't be able to accomodate you! Martine works as a dog sitter full time and your dog will be her full priority! Alex is musician and works from home as well, which means your dog won't be alone for more than a trip to the shop, one of us or both are always available to be around.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a big fenced garden where your dog can explore and run free, completely safe! We live close to lots of parks but will of course never take the lead off out in the open, your dog's safety and wellbeing is our main priority.
A typical day
We provide exercise tailored to your dogs needs and try t follow their usual routines as closely as possible. We provide up to 3 walks a day, length depends on your dog's energy levels. We love to play out in the garden, fetch, tug-o-war, running around or just sniffing, we stay out in the garden a couple hours ( when the British weather allows it!) Martine is also trying to get back into jogging and would love to take your dog for a run if he/she is up for it!
