Martina is great!!! I went to Mexico with my boyfriend for 11 days and really needed an extra helping hand to walk my sweetheart Mattea Sophia. Martina was so loving and caring and took her for walks every day and 2x on weekends, she even lent Mattea a rain coat for the rainy days! I highly recommend Martina to take care of your furry loved ones read more

Waggy Trails - Dog Walkers Near Me

See all

Pros: communication, timeliness, reliable, passionate about dogs, speaks dog Cons: NONE If I could give Martina 10 stars I would. We had secured a dog sitter 2 months ago since we were going to be away for thanksgiving week. At the last minute the dog sitter canceled and we had to scramble. We called Martina and asked her if she could come by twice on Thanksgiving day and another time that week. Someone as professional as Martina had more than a full plate but she figured out how to accommodate us. I know it wasn't easy for her but she completely did us a solid. Our two pups took to her immediately and we got regular reports and pics every day. We felt so at peace knowing Martina was coming by. We have a special needs dog that requires a light touch and she did great. We feel so lucky to have found Martina. She's a true gem. This is the beginning of a long term relationship! read more

Martina is AMAZING! I've known Martina for a while now and knowing how great she is with all the dogs she walks and boards I knew I couldn't go with anyone else but Waggy Trails. I was a little nervous and sad to say goodbye to my Sammie but I knew she was in good hands. What I love about Waggy Trails is that the dogs all get to interact together and play and go on several daily walks. They're not separated or put in crates all day like most boarding facilities do. Martina is constantly updating the Waggy Trails social media with pictures and videos of your dog, so you always get to see what your dog is up to. It's always nice to see that your dog is doing well and having fun. I would definitely recommend Waggy Trails to my friends and family. Martina will take the best possible care of your dog. read more

Martina and Waggy Trails has made my life easier and my dog happier ! As the owner of a high energy young dog, I was looking for a solution to keep my dog entertained and active while I'm at my 9-5. Martina was east to get in communication with, and was able to get us on her dog walking schedule quickly! She did a meet and greet to get know us and where my dog goes on walks. She answered all my questions and also asked me important questions that I didn't think of myself. I felt comfortable upon meeting her and my dog warmed up to her right away by their first walk together. Now when I come home from work, my dog is in a much better mood and I'm a happy momma ! Martina sends you pictures after she walks your dog and gives you an update on how your dog did , which is a great touch! She also was able to accommodate us because we are out her typical area that she serves. Martina is a considerate and kind person who is willing to consider your dog's specific needs when working with you. She listens and is flexible, which makes me feel that my dog dog is safe and cared for in her hands because it shows she is not just doing a job , she is caring for your dog and wants to do what's best for him/her. I would highly recommend Waggy Trails for anyone looking to provide their dog more activity, socialization and enrichment while they are away. read more

Waggy Trails - Waggy Trails in action ! - Dog Walkers Near Me

Martina at Waggy Trails is amazing! We were looking for someone to help us out with our rescue pup while we worked over the weekend. Martina scheduled a visit to meet our dog Mojo right away. He is a VERY anxious pup who is super guarded. He hates strangers and hides underneath the couch when he meets new people. He took to Martina right away! It was a miracle. We are so grateful to have found someone we can trust to help out with our little guy when we are out of town or just need a walk. I highly recommend her! She's professional, warm and a huge dog lover! read more

Our young dog, Gertie, loves Martina. She is always excited to spend the day with her and the other dogs. And we love receiving photo updates of how she is doing during the day. Martina is very responsive when we request days and is flexible with drop offs and pick ups which we appreciate since we have extremely busy schedules. Besides close friends and family there is no one else that we trust our dog with. Very glad to have someone like her in our neighborhood! read more

I found Martina through Yelp because I needed someone to doggy sit my dog "Bubblez" while on vacation. Martina responded immediately and helped me choose the best option to take care of my pet. While on vacation, she took beautiful pictures of my dog and kept me updated about how she was doing. My boyfriend and I were so impressed with her professionalism! She also walks Bubblez twice a week and offers advice on anything animal related. Martina doggy sat again recently and not only did she take great care of Bubblez, she also brought in heavy packages! She is a true gem and we feel blessed to have found her! read more

Ok guys if you're looking for someone that will actually love and care for your pets like your own then you will love Martina. We happened upon her thanks to Yelp and have used her for all of our vacations since. Martina is absolutely wonderful. Prior to her very first visit she asked to come over to do a meet and greet with our dogs. Our oldest boy is normally pretty nonchalant about everything but was very impressed with her treats, so she made a friend immediately. We had a special situation with our dogs and she was able to handle it no problem at all. She covered issues and prompted questions that we hadn't even thought about, so we knew they were going to be completely taken care of. She sends pictures and videos during every visit (which we love), and keeps us updated if anything comes up. When we got home they were only slightly excited to see us and our oldest kept looking for her so we knew they were in great hands. Thank you Martina! read more

A friend recommended Martina and we could be happier. Our dog Harry adores her and gets sooo excited when she takes him for walks. She is incredibly responsive, reliable, and trustworthy. I love that she sends me picture updates - it is so reassuring to see my pup having a grand time. And her Instagram is great for the dog obsessed like me :). read more

Martina is amazing! She took care of my dogs, cat, and tortoises while we were out of town. She did home visits, walked the dogs, and fed all of them according to diet/schedule. I loved seeing her social media posts and appreciated her texts updating me/asking questions if needed and I was able to enjoy my vacation without worry. If you need home visits, walking, or boarding for your pets, let Martina take care of it! read more

Words cannot describe how amazing Martina is! We just moved to the area and were in need for a new dog walker! We knew it was a good sign when she had the same first name as our previous dog walker. Martina was the first and only dog walker we contacted and we haven't been happier! She is a great communicator and very professional. We love that she is awesome on social media and sends daily photos, snaps, you name it! The dog walking app she uses is wonderful and keeps you updated on when walkies happen and what your pup did. We are so grateful to have found Martina and feel so at ease knowing that our little pup is getting the care and attention she needs while we're at work! Would highly recommend :-) read more

Martina did a great job taking care of my dog for a couple of weeks while I was on vacation. I wouldn't hesitate to use her again.

Waggy Trails is the only company we have fully trusted to have access into our home when we are not there (and even provided an extra key) to walk our dog 3x a week while we are at work during the day. She has always provided unconditional love to our dog and has saved us a few times with last minute emergency requests to walk our dog for potty relief when we were held up longer than expected. We knew we could always depend on Martina for consistent schedules as well. I would recommend Waggy Trails to anyone needing dog walking and overnight boarding services. read more

Martina is the absolute best! My dog has separation anxiety so I was nervous to leave him with someone new, but she immediately put me at ease. Her love of dogs is clear and she communicated and sent me pics throughout his stay. Not only can you see she is very experienced with dogs, but I appreciated her professional manner as well. I'd highly recommend Waggy Trails to anyone! read more

If you are looking for someone to take care of your fur baby (babies) you won't find anyone better than Martina. She is awesome and truly loves dogs. Emma (my fur baby) is a bit of a handful, Martina is super patient and very loving with her. Emma loves her!!! Another reason you should consider hiring Martina to take care of your fur baby (babies) is her adorable side kick Romeo. He is super friendly and is always willing to play. They make an awesome team and your fur baby (babies) couldn't be in better hands. read more

Martina is amazing and I am so grateful for her! I have been a client of hers for years and I recommend her to friends with small dogs all the time. My dog loves going to her house and when she sees Martina she goes crazy. Martina is a lovely person and a huge dog lover. It's obvious that she enjoys what she does and cares about every dog as if they were her own. My dog loves when we go out of town because that means she gets to spend time with one of her favorite people. When I had a baby last year, we texted Martina and she came and got our dog at our house when we went to the hospital. We didn't have to worry about her at all because we knew she was in good hands. My husband and I joke that we can't move too far from Pasadena because we don't want to be too far away from Martina. :) I highly recommend her! read more

Martina is awesome! I am a pet sitter myself, but it's the first time I had to take my new high energy dachshund to a sitter. We only had her two months so she wasn't ready to be out and about at home while we were on vacation. I'm not a fan of the traditional boarding places so I was excited to be referred to Waggy Trails. Gretchen had a great time over there playing all day. I think she even misses all her new friends. You can rest easy with Martina watching your dogs. read more

I have not tried other daycares but Martina is so awesome. I can tell Cloud(my dog) loves Martina as I see how hard he wags his tail every time he sees her. She takes the doggies out for walk couple of times a day and sometimes dog parks too. Best part is she sends pictures and videos to me constantly letting me know how Cloud is doing. I feel so relieved now as I don't have to worry about how my dog is doing alone at home and knowing he's having a great time with Martina and his friends. read more

I can't say enough good things about Martina - Waggy Trails. We had a long time dog walker that changed careers and was really nervous about bringing in someone new to watch our Otis. Martina is extremely trustworthy, and you can really tell this is her true passion! Otis loves her and we are beyond happy! read more

Martina is the most amazing person ever! She is trustworthy and responsible and shows so much love and attention to our pets. We have two dogs (bloodhound and lab/pitt mix) as well as one cat. She pays close attention to detail as my dog did have a stone issue and was peeing blood; which she noticed and informed me about! Mentioned it a couple times and probably helped save my dogs life! She is always in touch with us about our pets when we vacation in or outside the states and sends us pics to keep us happy and informed. We recommend her to anyone and everyone looking for a caring dedicated and affectionate person to take care of their pets! THANKS SO MUCH MARTINA!!!!! Taryn and David read more

Martina - Ms. Waggy Trails - is the best pet sitter there is. She truly loves the dogs she takes care of and I felt 100% confident that Eddie was in the best hands, other than my own. Martina is incredibly responsive and an excellent communicator. She sent pictures and videos from each visit with my puppy. I recommend her without any reservation. read more

If you are crazy in love with your dog (like I am:) and want to be certain your beloved is in the hands and care of someone who will treat your dog like it's her own, you want Martina of Waggy Trails! Highly recommend‼ (even if you are convinced you'd never entrust anyone to care for your dog). Martina is reliable, clearly loves what she does, can be counted up to follow up as needed, and is a woman of her word. Grateful that a chance conversation with a complete stranger led me to her. read more

I am a stickler for customer service in todays world with all the competition there is out there and being a business owner myself I despise when someone feels so on top that feels like "oh I can't be bothered with you" its a shame that people think Im successful now but guess what you never know so to get to the point called Martina first I was hung up on, then called again send to VM, then I said to myself hhmm maybe she's busy so I send a quick txt asking if it was her she replied yes it's her asked her if she could call me when she got a chance to ask her some questions in regards to dog sitting this is where I became suspicious of why she couldn't calm me back or just plain bad C.S. she refuse to call me then continued to ask me if I wanted to see her price chart haha WOW! Ok then she still continued to txt me to ask me about my dogs seriously???? Meanwhile speaking to a coworker referred me to her dog sitter had the best first initial consult made an appt to meet the dogs and it was great Martina is very unprofessional she might be successful now but remember there's a lot of competition out there and if she continues with this bad C.S. good luck to her! read more

Martina was friendly, thorough and kind. I immediately felt comfortable leaving our two rabbits and cat in her care while we were gone for a long weekend. She sent us photos of them and followed their care instructions perfectly! We'll definitely be calling her next time we need a sitter! read more

Martina is a great professional she does her best to work with my extremely busy schedule and she always sends text updates and pictures from each walk. Martina is also very friendly and is always happy to arrange doggy parties with her own baby. My miniature pinscher Zumi loves getting his walks from Martina whenever I come home after Martina has walked him he is sleeping peacefully in his dog bed instead of jumping crazily around like he usually does. She really spends a lot of time exercising him and letting him socialize with other dogs. read more

Martina is awesome. She's been walking our dog Bobby the last 3 months or so since I was 9+ months pregnant and just couldn't walk him by myself anymore (he's a 70lb pit mix). She is so nice, always on time, communicates with us regularly and of course, Bobby loves her! He spins and jumps whenever she comes for him. I'm generally very cautious of who walks Bobby because he doesn't like unfamiliar dogs. Martina totally gets that and has the experience to know how to handle him on walks. It's such a treat to have a reliable dog walker - I highly recommend Martina! read more

We've been bringing Pretzel to stay with Martina for a few years now and couldn't be happier. Our only problem is our dog misses hanging with the pack after he gets home! read more

We LOVE Martina!! Most importantly, Benny-Cakes loves Martina. Her services could not have come at a better time- we welcomed a newborn baby 8 weeks ago and couldn't give Benny the kind of attention we use to. Benny is excited when Martina picks him up and exhausted when she drops him off. They go for walks or the dog park, whatever the mood strikes. She sends updates with photos on how well he's playing or walking. We're so grateful that a friend told us about Martina read more

We HEART Waggy Trails! Martina, Romeo and company are simply amazing. You can instantly tell that Martina has a genuine love for what she is doing, and the biggest heart for dogs. She puts a lot of thought and care providing peace of mind not only for pet parents, but also for your pet. I know that Mosely is safe in her hands. He loves being in her company and the company of the dogs she cares for. Part of her thoughtfulness is her attentive and honest nature of selecting clients whose pets are compatible with hers and the other dogs in her care. This is rare in the pet industry (and in many others) where #s are more important than safety and conscientious diligence. Thank you, Waggy Trails, for being AWESOME and setting high standards for pet care everywhere! read more

One thing I really appreciate about Martina is her patience with my schedule. I know how hard it would be to budget and plan with someone who has last minute changes at times, so we worked out a plan. (So far I've only changed two days..but it's a relief for me, who can suddenly have a late night of work!) She truly does her best to accommodate you're needs. My Lily wiggles her butt like crazy fish when she comes, so I it's a high 5 paw from her as well! She is also very serious about knowing your animal thoroughly. Thanks, Martina! read more

AMAZING! I'm very attached to my little pup so finding a doggy day care that would give the attention I would give was very important. Martina really understands and genuinely cares for your dog. I was out of town for almost a week and she sent updates and pictures daily! She is very knowledgable about dog training and health so I felt very comfortable asking her any questions or concerns I had about by dog. My pup loves going to waggy trails and I know he is in great hands. read more

I wish there were more than five stars I would give this a 10 Martina is awesome! Amazing care and comfort for my little boy. He had an great time and is looking forward to his next stay I'm sure! If you are looking for THE place for boarding your pup then look no further than Waggy Trails. read more

Martina is great, takes her profession seriously, and is a true dog lover. Most importantly, she understands pet etiquette and safety around people and other animals and we trust her with our dogs. The fact that she does her research on new clients and the situation surrounding their dogs behavior, health, and other factors before taking you on is a big plus to me. read more

Waggy Trails is an exceptional business! Martina is a true dog lover at heart. Our dog large dog Ruca can be pretty shy and sometimes quite nervous with new humans. Within two times of meeting Martina, she fully trusted her. Now when Martina comes to the door she can barely contain her excitement. Martina is very professional, courteous, and communicative. Our favorite part is that we feel like we are a part of the dog walks with her as Martina is sure to send awesome pics and social media shares of their adventures. Highly recommend. read more

I absolutely love Waggy trails! Martina is amazing with my dog Henry. We did a meet and greet in the dog park to see how my little guy would do with the others, I thought that was such a good idea and it helped her and the rest of the crew feel each other out. She made me feel super comfortable leaving my Henry with her because I saw her love for all her doggy family. The rest is history Henry went for daycare and loved it so much that he was doing all these awesome things with Martina that he doesn't do at home. I got updates throughout the day and pics which I loved and shared with family. The cherry on top was Henry's Pawgress Report with good information regarding his behavior, playtime, feeding times, etc. I highly recommend Waggy trails and Martina, Henry and I are so happy we became part of the Waggy trails family read more

Don't hesitate to contact Martina. She is so professional and caring with how she takes care of our fur baby. My girl Kona has stayed with Martina a few times now and I know she is in good hands. She always gets plenty of doggie playtime and walks. You will also get plenty of updates and photos during your pups stay. Thanks again Martina for taking such good care of our girl!!! read more

Waggy Trails is the best!! Martina is so great with the dogs. My dog sometimes has problems socializing with new dogs but Martina knows just how to handle him and make him feel at home each time she watches him. Not to mention the walks, hikes and other adventures that are involved at Waggy Trails. Martina is also great about texting pictures and other updates throughout the day to let you know how your baby is doing! I'd recommend her to anyone and trust her wholeheartedly! read more

Martina took wonderful care of our doxie while we were out of town for a week. This was the first time we had left him so it was important to us that it was the right fit. Plus, our doxie is very mellow and not used to being around many dogs. We did a meet and greet at her place, which went really well. Martina obviously loves dogs and seemed to understand our dog's personality right away. My good friend had recommended Martina, since she had left her corgie with Martina multiple times and was very positive about the experience. Martina texted us many photos of our dog while we were away, which was fantastic, especially for my son who really missed our dog! I would highly recommend Martina for pet boarding or pet sitting! read more

I found Martina from a cursory internet search when I was looking for someone to help us out during the day with our 9 week old German Shepherd/Lab mix. I was planning on using her services because she already had so many great reviews, however we had a bit of an emergency the day we got our new puppy and Martina sprung into action. She really saved our necks during our first week with our new puppy, Kepler. She is reliable, flexible and trustworthy. I love when she sends pictures of Kep during his daily walks and playtime, and I love that she sends me updates throughout his session. I can't say enough good things about Waggy Trails! Also, her instagram stories are dope. read more

We had an excellent first-time experience with Martina! We are moving to South Pas soon, so our vacation was an opportunity to find a new dog care provider near our new house. We left our two dogs in her care for one week. It is scary to trust someone new with your furbabies, but Martina is warm, friendly, and put us at ease. And most importantly, our dogs took to her right away. Copper, our Dachshund mix, can be very sassy and picky, but Martina has a lot of experience with Dachshunds so I felt more comfortable. During our trip, she was always reachable and she sent daily updates and pictures/Snapchat stories featuring our boys playing or dressed up for the 4th of July holiday. She considered their health during the heat wave and used booties and Cool Collars while outside. When we picked the boys up, they were happy and sleepy. And Copper even gave her goodbye kisses! I am so happy to find a trustworthy caregiver for our pups in South Pas, and will definitely be sending the dogs to her next time. read more
