Loving Care and Play Guaranteed!
Pet care experience
The moment I heard about Rover, I had to sign up! There's nothing better than being a pet sitter, I get so spend time with more furry friends, and my dog Apollo can get some extra play time! Since the day I was born I have always had dogs, from my childhood best friend Copper, the 120lb Chessie - to my current dog, Apollo the fluffy 50lb Samoyed. Apollo absolutely loves playing with any dog, cat, or person he meets, and he's so excited to meet your dog. My dogs are my family and I care for them as such. I live with my Fiance and often work from home in Silver Spring, just across the street from Rock Creek Park and a dog park, where Apollo loves to romp around with the other pups. When your dog comes to stay with us, we promise to make their vacation home, a home away from home. We stay with the dogs as much as possible and ensure that they have all the care they need, as well as all the attention they could hope for! I accept friendly dogs of all breeds and sizes for daytime visits and boarding, and frequent walks through Rock Creek Park. With your permission, I'm also happy to take them to the dog park for play time. I have experience with dogs of all breeds and dispositions, and can administer medicine if your best friend has any special needs. Also offered is professional grooming at just $50 during a daycare or overnight stay, or $70 if I come to you! I use pet-safe organic products only. When Im not spending time with my furry and human family, I can be found exploring with my camera or working on my car. I'm a passionate photographer always looking for a great shot--maybe your pup will be one of my subjects! My fiance and I love being outdoors and we love camping and hiking with Apollo. I'd love to help you and your dog out in any way I can. Let's set up a meet and greet!
Reviews
Matt is absolutely the best! He is patient, kind and responsible. He kept us updated every day with pictures and messages and we never had a worry while we were away. Our dog Abner loved both he and his fiancé, but still got a little stress sickness when we were gone. The were patient with him, kept in constant communication and sought medical care for us to make sure the little guy was ok. Matt, Adianna and Apollo make a great team and I recommend them 1000 times over!
This was Meg's second stay with Matt and Apollo and she had as good a time as the first. Matt took Meg for long walks and let her find a place to relax on the couch. We would definitely ask Matt to take care of Meg again. We know she would get the best of care.
Yuki had an awesome time with Matt, his fiancé and Apollo! They took care of her like she was their own and I'm really greatful. Will be leaving Yuki within again!
Meg had a great stay with Matt and Apollo! She got plenty of exercise and attention, and Matt sent frequent updates and photos that showed we had nothing to worry about while we were away. We hope Meg can stay with Matt again sometime - we know she would be in good hands.

Information Matt S. would like to know about your pet
I require the dog to be house trained, spayed/neutered, and friendly with other dogs. I welcome all breeds and sizes under 65lbs! I would like to know what their routine is like, if they have any health issues and what their activity level is.
A typical day
Apollo and I love to go on walks as often as possible, we are just across the street from Rock Creek Park! There is also a dog park next door that I would be happy to bring your pup to with your permission. In addition, I make sure to take the dogs out for bathroom breaks at least every few hours, and more often if requested. You can be assured that your dog will have plenty of friendly play time with Apollo and I during their stay!
