I am currently taking bookings for any day of the week and at any time! Because of my flexible schedule, I am able to take pets on walks/potty breaks as often as needed.

West Sound dog parents share their Rover experiences
Marta is a wonderful dog walker! My dog immediately took to her and her partner, and they were off on an adventure! My dog can be hesitant to go along with strangers, so this was a big deal! She is very prompt in her reply, a great communicator, and arrived in a timely manner! Definitely would recommend to anyone needing a dog walker on Orcas!
