About Marty

I am an animal lover with a passion for taking care of all types of dogs, big and small. I know how to make your pet feel loved and at home.

I understand the importance of trust when it comes to leaving your pet in someone else's care, so I treat him or her as as if they were my own. You can see some photos of me caring for pets in the album.

I do not currently own a dog ourselves. This means your animal will get unrivalled attention!

I have a third floor apartment with plenty of room, including a balcony with plenty of natural sunlight (many of the dogs I have hosted like to nap here during the day as opposed to inside)

Barkley gardens and the adjoining dog park are a 3 minute walk from my house, which is where I take dogs for exercise.

I work from home most days of the week, meaning I am able to work flexibly around your needs. Working from home enables me to give your dog my full attention throughout the day.

I keep a dog bed and treats on hand at any given time (we will check with you beforehand before feeding your animal), and there's always a collection of dog toys around the house to keep them occupied. But please bring your own as I'm sure your dog has his or her favourite snacks and toys.

Specific Skills

I speak English
< 1 years of experience
Throughout my upbringing I have always had a pet dog - kelpies. Kelpies are highly intelligent and active dogs and always required a lot of love, attention and hard work. As I have not had a dog of my own in recent years, I have taken to looking after my friends, neighbours and family member’s pets while they are away - you can see this demonstrated in the many photos in my album. I also have considerable experience hand-raising birds, especially native ones such as lorikeets, rosellas and galahs
