Pet Care Extraordinaire
Pet care experience
My name is Matty Benson (they/she). I have experience as a seeing-eye dog trainer for 3 years and I worked at a pet boarding facility before that where I worked with cats and dogs of all breeds and ages. I have spent most of my life working with dogs and rescue animals. All my current animals are rescues so there is little I haven’t seen or handled before. I can also check in on your cats while I’m there to check on your pups. I have two dogs of my own, two hounds named Roxie and Ramone as well as two cats named Po and Primrose. I would love to check in on your pets or housesit for you. My spouse, Mike (they/them) is also certified by Rover, and we help each other with our listings to increase our availability.
Reviews
Matt was excellent with our 2 dogs while we were out for the weekend. The dogs were happy and well fed. Matt kept us informed and sent pictures frequently. Would definitely seek his help with our dog sitting needs in future.
Gave me so much peace of mind knowing my pup was in such good hands. took great care of the place, sent photos and updates. My pup just loves Matt! Thank you!
Matt was so wonderful with our great Dane and Aussie
Matt is great and I highly recommend him. He has a lot experience with reactive dogs and knows how to make them feel comfortable. He is very caring and truly loves dogs. Five stars!
About Matt A.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I love walking dogs, and animal cuddles. I feed my dogs and cats twice a day and walk the dogs 3 to 4 times a day.
Information Matt A. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any anxieties or things that make them scared or nervous so I can approach with caution. I am also more than comfortable dealing with medication as well.
A typical day
We can go for a walk in your neighborhood or at a nearby park! I also will learn and do what they love to do to play and I’m all about the cuddles.

Matt can watch in your home
Availability
I am currently working full time in Oakland. So it will largely look like before and after work for when I can care for your pets.
