Martín Gray es una persona responsable, seria, organizada, metódica y con creatividad. En su estadía en La Guaquita, desarrolló varios proyectos que enlucieron el lugar como fue la construcción de una terraza al aire libre rodeada de plantas de la región, trabajada con los materiales existentes, lo cual muestra lo recursivo y creativo en él. Esta terraza es un lugar ideal para compartir una merienda, té o un rato de conversación al lado de los arbustos. También organizó el lugar para el Compós, utilizando guadua y materiales existentes en el entorno. Cuidó el lugar con dedicación exclusiva.
Le interesan los lugares silentes y tranquilos y procura cuidar el lugar del ruido. Martin es una persona que le gusta precisión en sus responsabilidades, con principios y criterios basados en el respeto, la solidaridad, la sana convivencia. Tiene adecuada manejo del Español lo cual facilitó la comunicación con nosotros. Fue una agradable y excelente experiencia.

Martin Gray is a responsible, serious, organised, methodical and creative person. In his stay at La Guaquita he developed various projects which brightened-up the place, such as the construction of an open-air terrace surrounded by local-plants, and made form materials on site, which shows his resourcefulness and creativity. This terrace is an ideal place to share a snack, tea or chat in the garden. He also created a compost-dump, again using materials to hand and cared for the property with dedication.
He prefers to take care of silent and tranquil places without noise. Martin is someone who likes precision and clarity in his responsibilities, with principles & criteria based on respect, solidarity and healthy co-existence. He has adequate ability in Spanish to enable communication with us.
It was a pleasant and excellent experience.

Martin Gray looked after our home and pets for about two weeks in late July 2017. I had met Martin on several occasions and felt very comfortable having him in our home. The dogs (two miniature long-haired dachshunds) managed to train him perfectly, and were all in good spirits upon our return.
I appreciate Martin's candour about any minor issues, and his ability to work with our gardener and maid. I wholeheartedly recommend Martin for his honesty and professionalism.

Martin Gray was our housesitter in January / February 2017 for about 4 weeks. We could not have got a better housesitter. He had solved all the tasks such as cleaning the house, watering the plants in the garden, supplying our wild hummingbirds and look to our gardener to our complete satisfaction. We continue to be in contact with him and we would be very happy if he could once again be our housesitter again sometime. He also stayed-on a few days together with us and he was a very nice and friendly person.

We had the pleasure of working with Martin Gray last month, and we have nothing but GOOD things to say. Our property and pets were well taken care of, dealing with Martin was very professional. We returned to find everything in perfect order. Bonus, we have a new friend!

Martin stayed at our home and cared for our dog and cat for a week long trip we recently took (5 Nov - 12 Nov, 2016). He's caring, conscientious and professional. More importantly, he was great with our furry companions. We recommend him with confidence.

Highly recommend Martin as a reliable house and pet sitter. He's very conscientious of your space and time and communicates whenever needed or to just check in occasionally. He left my home in spotless condition and the cat seemed totally relaxed. He's also a kind and appreciative person. I used his services twice (July and August), which tells it all.​

We were very lucky to have found Martin to take care of our dear 8 year old labrador Kobe and our home. This was our first time having a dog/house sitter and Martin went above and beyond on guiding us on what info was necessary to ensure all bases were covered so both of us could be comfortable and at peace. Martin was amazing with communication. He kept in touch with updates before, during and after his stay in our home.
Martin's responsibilities included taking care of our dog, (walking, cleaning and feeding him), watering our grass and plants, and keeping us updated on any activity within our private complex. We were grateful that he was great on dealing with unexpected events like our leaking AC and water pipes. He was also great in dealing with our landlord and updating us on the work fixed while we were gone.
I highly recommend him to take care of your pets and home.
