A typical day

We get up early to feed and walk the dogs, make sure they have access to water. In addition to the walks, we'll play with them and take them into the backyard for exercise a couple of times a day. We'll make sure they get their potty breaks, depending on the needs of the dogs. Because we're home full time, we'll be here to give your dog special attention.

Dogs Are My Favorite People!

Pet care experience

We moved here recently with our senior dog Abby, who unfortunately, has passed. To fill the emptiness, I thought I'd watch other people's dogs, which I did previously in California. I love dogs and have always had dogs in my house - even four at one time. I volunteered with rescue organizations and shelters, and I'll treat your dog as one of my own. I'm very familiar with giving medication and treating senior dogs.

Don’t know that I would ever take a vacation if we didn’t have Martine and Ron to take care of Maui in our absence. They keep him safe, happy and well cared for, and the photos they send me every day are “the next best thing to being there”!

Another great visit with Martine and Ron! Our dogs LOVE going over there. One of them is a very senior dog, who needs lots of care. That didn't deter Martine and Ron from watching him. He and our other dog were very well taken care of, and we received pictures and updates each day.

Martine and Ronald took great care of Oshie. I received daily pictures and check-ins that gave me peace of mind. Oshie came home happy and healthy, which is all I can ask for!
