Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced dog walker and runner
Hi! I’m Marty, and I’ve been a passionate dog sitter for the past few years. As a dog lover, I know how important it is to find someone trustworthy and caring for your furry friend. I work hybrid, but if you'd prefer me to be around your dog full time, I can easily work remotely to ensure they’re never alone. I’m an active person who enjoys getting outside, so energetic dogs that need a good run or play session are right up my alley. Whether your dog loves to run, hike, or just enjoys lots of playtime, I’m here to make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention. I’m also comfortable caring for dogs with special medical needs, including administering medication or following specific care routines. Your dog’s well-being is my priority! I’m dedicated to giving your dog the care, attention, and fun they deserve while you’re away!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Marty did an amazing job with my young lab Arlo. He did an especially great job keeping Arlo active so that when Marty left, Arlo was exhausted and able to sleep until I got home later in the evening - perfect outcome when your dog has separation anxiety.
Marty did a phenomenal job watching our dog. Outside of making sure that she had plenty of stretch/bathroom breaks, he sent us pictures that showed she was nice and comfortable. If you're heading out of town or just need someone trustworthy to walk your dog, I would definitely recommend Marty. We trusted him to go in and out of our house while we were gone and had absolutely no issues.

Schedule
I work a hybrid schedule, which gives me the flexibility to work remotely and care for your dog throughout the day. While I do enjoy grabbing dinner with friends, my schedule is adaptable to ensure I can meet your dog’s needs. Recently, I’ve been dog-sitting an older dog who needs bathroom breaks every couple of hours, and that routine fits well with my work-from-home setup. I’m happy to adjust my day to make sure your dog receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve while you're away! L

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I love pets and have always treated them with kindness and respect. In my home or yours, I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable environment tailored to your pet’s needs. I understand that every home has different safety precautions, so I’m always happy to follow any guidelines or specific instructions you provide. Whether it’s feeding, walks, or playtime, I’ll ensure your pet’s routine is maintained and that they feel cared for and secure. I’m flexible and attentive, always making sure to respect the comfort and well-being of your pet.
A typical day
I just moved back to Denver and have been enjoying exploring places like Cheesman Park and City Park with the dogs I care for. I'm also an avid hiker, so I'm always up for hitting the trails for a fun adventure. For more social dogs, I love taking them to the dog park to play and interact with other pups. Whether it’s a scenic walk, a hike, or a trip to the dog park, I’ll tailor activities to suit the dog’s energy level and personality, ensuring they have a fun and fulfilling experience.

- It’s important to know as much as possible about your pet's routine, preferences, and any special needs before sitting. I like to know details like their feeding schedule, favorite activities, and how they prefer to be exercised. Any health concerns or behavioral quirks are also helpful so I can ensure they’re comfortable and well-cared for. I also ask about your pet’s temperament—whether they enjoy being around other dogs, how they interact with people, and any boundaries they may have. The more I know, the better I can provide a safe, enjoyable experience for your pet.
