Content pets, while you're away.
Pet care experience
I can host your pet in my home. Kenneling your dog maybe an uncomfortable situation for your pet. While you are away, you’ll feel secure that your dog is well-taken care in a home environment. Daily walks, playtime and comfy surroundings are all part of the personal attention your pet will receive. Wanting the best for your dog, I cannot provide the special care for dogs on anxiety medications. For years, I've been taking care of pets. My rates are reasonable. Get in touch and we’ll talk about your dogs personality, needs, and daily life.
Reviews
Matthew was our first experience with Rover, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience! We did a meet and greet with Rosie prior to her stay, and he made sure she was comfortable at his home and let her sniff around. Throughout her stay, we received updates with lots of pictures that gave us piece of mind while we were away. Matthew was great at communicating and we felt very comfortable that Rosie was having a good experience at his home! We would definitely use him again and would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a place for their dog to stay!
5 BIG Stars for Matthew! He was so kind and compassionate with our senior pups, and took great care of them while we were away. He sent great pictures, and the pups looked so relaxed. Baxter and Grace already miss you, Matthew! We all appreciate you, and will see you next time!
My Tucker dog was completely at home with Matt. He gave him so much attention and many walks. He was truly on his own vacation. ?
5 stars all the way for Matthew! He's great with dogs and knew just how to handle our pup's separation anxiety. He even played fetch to keep our dog happy. It's no wonder he's booked solid for months. We can't wait to have our dog stay with him again. Thanks, Matthew, for taking such good care of our dog.

Information Matthew S. would like to know about your pet
Things to know about your pet: • Feeding - What is the portion of food during each meal and how many meals per day. What treats/how many given? • Is your dog on any medications for instance arthritis or allergies. I cannot provide the special care of dogs on anxiety medications. • What are the words and training your dog understands? Such as sit, down, code word for bathroom breaks. • How active is your dog? Does he like to lounge or go for a lot of walks? • Does your dog get along with other dogs? • Will need your vet information (only in case of emergency). I don't have any breed preferences. I have sat puggles, beagles, westies, boxers, dachshund to mixed breeds. Love them all.
A typical day
I take the dogs around the neighborhood and to the local park down the street. The walks are about 15-20 minutes each, 2-3 times a day. If dogs and people friendly, I'd love for them to meet others. Waggin' tails are important to me. Please let me know about your dogs temperament with other dogs, adults or children so i can walk accordingly. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog is welcome to sleep on the bed with me or if your dog sleeps on the floor in it's own bed, you are welcome to bring that. Your dogs comfort is important and maintaining the usual routine that you have established. Yup, some dogs take up all the bed space and spread out on the couch. I get it the need to stretch out. : ) Time I'll spend with your dog To make your dog comfortable during the visit. I schedule my time to be with your dog and make plans to be there 100% of the time. I realize my role is to be with your pet during the time you are away and take this seriously.

I do have a job that requires me to be at my computer during 8-4:40pm working hours. Your pet will be able to be next to me or on the couch a few feet away. If they require to go out, I'll be able to look for the signal from them. Be confident that I care for them as they were my own.
