About
Hello! My name is Marta. My pet sitting services are completely booked, but I still have openings for aquarium care. I have cared for all sizes, from a 10 gallon freshwater all the way to a 656 gallon saltwater reef tank.
I have had personal aquariums, both salt and fresh, for 20+ years. I have professionally cared for tanks for six years, including having worked at the premier saltwater store in the state where we grew 90%+ of the corals carried.
I currently have openings for weekly/biweekly routine care appointments.
Each visit will include:
water change
water testing
equipment inspection
equipment cleaning if needed
glass cleaning
filter media change
Testing kits will be supplied by myself. Any additional supplies needed must be supplied by client. Base price is $80 per hour, minimum 1hr charge. Any requested shopping will be completed for a flat $20 rate +cost of livestock/goods.
I look forward to hearing from you!

Marta was a wonderful sitter for our pup! She sent TONS of update photos during our trip and we could tell Millie was so happy with her. She left the house very clean and spotless and was a perfect house sitter. I would definitely hire her again!

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I always want to be fair in my pricing but not undersell my expertise and skill. I offer a discount on the next service for referrals.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I always want to meet with my customers in their home and make sure I know exactly what their expectations are for my service. This also gives me a chance to see the home and meet any pets so they are more comfortable the next time I'm in their home. We'll discuss cost based on actual conditions and expectations.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I was pre-veterinary in college and have worked many years at an open-play dog daycare. I have several pets currently and have had all sorts from reptiles to fish to cats and dogs for my entire life. My current pets are almost all 10+yrs old. A green iguana, large constrictor snakes, cats, and numerous fish tanks both reef and fresh. We also have an almost-2yr old Rottweiler who absolutely loves everyone.
