Dogs Are My Favorite People!

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.

Martine and Ronald were great with our sweet girl. They were very easy to contact and sent us pictures every day. Martine talked to us at length to make sure she knew how to best take care of our Abby. It was so nice to be away and know that they were taking such good care of our pup.

This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and Martine and Ronald were great! They gave us multiple daily updates, pictures, and made us feel super comfortable. Our dog had a great time, made some friends, and was amazingly cared for. We’re already planning to rebook again for our next trip!

Martine & Ron are both wonderful dog sitters. We couldn't be happier with the care Harper receives! They are wonderful, caring, and always make her feel right at home. It's such a relief knowing she's happy, comfortable, and so well loved while we're away.

PIp had a wonderful time with Martine & Ron! This was pur first experience with using Rover and a bit hesitant. Once Pip and I met Martine & Ron my concerns were alleviated. They were warm & welcoming. They explained how Pip would be introduced to other guests in the house. They sent pictures throughout the stay of him having the time of his life. I would highly recommend recommend Martine & Ron!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large, fenced back yard that will give your dog plenty of space to run and play and I'll also be taking them for walks. They'll be welcome in the house as well as out.

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.
