Pet care experience

Be A Teacher's Pet!

I am a special educator and dog mom who currently works from home as a consultant. Not only do I specialize in taking care of neurodivergent children, I have a knack for taking care of senior animals and animals with special needs. As a kid, my family used to call me Elmyra Duff from Tiny Toons as I never had any less than 4-5 "rescue" pets at a time. From bunnies, to cats and dogs, to lizards, and birds (I literally raised a fallen nest of birds in my bedroom closet until they were ready to fly off). I am a favorite dog auntie who frequently watches the animals of family and friends.

We had the best experience with Martrice ! We received great communication and lots of pictures! Our boy suffers from separation anxiety and he thrived in her home while we were out of town for the week! Highly recommended booking! 😊

The whole process with Matrice was excellent, but most of all, my dog was taken good care of. I would use her again in a heartbeat!

Marty was awesome and shared photos within the first hour. She is a very calm and laid back sitter with a beautiful home and yard. We really appreciate that she quickly responded with acceptance of the reservation request…. With very little notice! Highly recommend!

Max was well taken care of and we would leave Max with Matrice again. He stayed in a beautiful home with a beautiful family.

Schedule

I currently work from home full-time so your animal will have plenty of time to relax and hang out. My schedule is pretty flexible for boarding. My own pup goes on a walk 3x a day and so they will get plenty of play and exercise and if they need more we have a small fenced in backyard.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home I currently have one small 10lb chiweenie and 9yo twin boys. Your animal must be okay with this. If your pup is not kid friendly let me know as they aren't here full-time and the schedule may work out. Animals with medications or special diets are welcome but client must provide written instructions and clearly labeled items.

Pets

A typical day

I love to create stimulating experiences for your pet. We have plenty of physical and mental games and activities for in the house and they will get the opportunity to check out new smells and textures in my neighborhood and nearby park. They can explore my fenced back yard or nearby doggie park while unleashed.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
No females in heat
Martrice can host up to 3 pets per night
Let me know if your pet has any special dietary or medical needs. Also let me know if they have any quirks or particular areas of sensitivity that I should look out for. Finally, it would be helpful to know their typical sleeping arrangements so I can try to mimic the setup during any overnight stays.
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.
