Pet Sitting in Mathews

“Here’s a glowing review you can use: We were so lucky to have Mattie take care of our dog while visiting for the Super Bowl! From the moment we met her, it was clear she truly loves animals. She was attentive, caring, and kept our dog happy and well-exercised with walks and plenty of attention. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was in such great hands. Mattie even sent us updates and photos, which we really appreciated. If you’re looking for someone reliable, kind, and responsible to care for your dog, Mattie is the best! Highly recommend her services!”

About: I've got a solid background in basic obedience training and socialization techniques, using positive reinforcement to help your pets form good habits right from the start. I know how to cater to the needs of senior pets, like giving medications, providing gentle exercise, and making sure they're comfortable and mobile. I customize care plans based on each pet's personality and age, so they get the care that suits them best. My top priority is your pets' safety and well-being, and I’m trained in first aid and emergency procedures. I also keep things fun and engaging for them with activities that stimulate their minds, whether it’s through puzzle toys, training sessions, or interactive play. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. Every morning starts with feeding and a bit of playtime to get them energized for the day. I make sure to take them out for walks or play sessions, depending on their needs. Throughout the day, I check in on them, ensuring they have fresh water and some time to relax. In the evenings, I usually spend more quality time with them, whether it's training, cuddling, or just hanging out. On a weekly basis, I also set aside time for grooming and any necessary vet visits. Overall, I try to integrate pet care into my life seamlessly, making it a fun and fulfilling part of my day! When it comes to caring for pets in my home or my clients' homes, I focus on creating a safe and comfortable environment. I make sure the space is pet-proofed—removing any hazards and providing a cozy area for them to relax. I prioritize building trust with the pets through gentle interaction and positive reinforcement, ensuring they feel secure and loved. Depending on the service, I tailor my approach. For basic care, I stick to their routine, keeping feeding and exercise consistent. If I'm providing training, I use fun and engaging methods that help them learn while enjoying themselves. I also pay close attention to their body language and behavior, adapting my care to meet their needs and help them feel at ease. Overall, my goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: Cornerstone Gundog Academy member and founder of the South LA chapter, I train a Boykin spaniel through trust-based, collar-free methods that empower dogs to think independently. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly rhythm. I work full-time weekdays, but weekends are fully open for boarding. With our first baby arriving soon, I’ll be staying local and can offer consistent attention. Dogs used to weekday routines can be accommodated with flexible care, ensuring they’re comfortable and well looked after even during my work schedule. At our home, dogs enjoy a safe, fully fenced play yard where they get plenty of exercise, enrichment, and interaction. Whether they’re boarding for the weekend or just dropping by during the week, each dog receives thoughtful attention based on their routine and personality. I focus on trust-based handling methods to make every visit feel comfortable and stress-free.

About: I’ve had 10+ years of dog experience. I was introduced to big breed dogs at the age of 5 and have been in love with them since. I have experience in caring for dogs and corrective behavior. My Availability schedule is very flexible. I make 30 minute house calls at your convenience and I will do up to 3 days of overnight sitting in your home. I think that it is very important to keep pets in their own familiar environment, therefore, I take suggestions from owners about their dog’s favorite hobbies and parks.

“She was very amazing with my girl during their drop off. I will definitely book her again for my future needs with Chika. She was able to easily come and check on Chika 2x day like we request and kept us up to date on Chikas mischief of the day!”

About: Need a loving Nana for your pup? I have always had dogs in my house! I’ve raised two granddoggies as well! I currently have a 5 year old Jack Russel Terrier mix. Her name is Zso’fi (pronounced like Sophie). She is a rescue pup! We take her to doggie parks often! She loves to play and gets along well with other dogs and loves people! In my house, our pets are treated like family! We spend a lot of time out doors if the weather permits. I also do some puppy training. Your pup will be allowed to roam my house freely and will be supervised! I am looking forward to taking care of your dog and giving my baby girl a playmate! I am a retired teacher who stays busy, so my availability will vary. I do my best to keep their regular routine going. Please be sure to share preferences with me. I have two kennels that I use only if needed. We have plenty toys to occupy your pup’s time. We have a doggie door and spend time outside playing in our fenced yard. Your pup will have lots of fun here. Unfortunately, big dogs stress my pup and sometimes hurts her when playing. Therefore, if your dog weighs more than 25 lbs, there is an extra charge. Fee will depend on size and type. Please ask for a quote. Thank you.

“Thank you, Paulina, for taking care of my pups when I rushed out of town for a family member in ICU. I love the photos and the updates. You are hired for my regular dog sitter!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my lifelong experience with animals. Growing up around a variety of pets, I've always had a deep love and care for all creatures. I’ve trained many of my own puppies to sit and even spin, and I bring that same patience and attention to every pet I care for. Whether it's training, cuddles, or special senior care, your pet will receive the love and attention they deserve! Pet care fits into my routine by being flexible around my job and college schedule. I’m available most mornings until 11 AM and can resume care in the afternoons, starting around 3 or 4 PM. I’m always happy to adjust and ensure your pet's care is a top priority! Since I live in an on-campus apartment, I’m unable to care for pets in my own home, but I’m more than happy to provide loving care in your pet’s familiar environment. I take safety very seriously and always prioritize secure surroundings. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority!

About: I’ve never met an animal I didn’t like. I’m familiar with young to older pups/cats. I am familiar with giving meds if needed and can also walk your pet/pets and provide you with photos or videos if you like. I’m currently a a business owner and Sailor with the Navy Reserves and my schedule is flexible/open. I would have availability mornings, midday, and afternoons/evenings. My yard is fenced in, I have four small doggos and one cat that could accompany your pet or mines/yours can be crated if needed.

About: I’ve always loved caring for animals. I am always the go to for friends and family members when they need pet sitting. I am very patient and caring. I do have a dog (3yrs), a cat (2yrs), a bearded dragon (12yrs), and a guinea pig (4yrs). Right now, I would like to start off offering servicing on weekends and hope to expand those offers later on. I do work during the week as of right now and have Saturdays and Sundays completely off. I provide a very loving and caring environment for all my pets. They are well provided for and given the proper attention. Right now, I can only sit smaller animals as I hope this will change once I move. I am open to providing services at client’s home as I would strictly be going there to take care of the pet and provide the necessary/desired services.

“Ashley and Mrs. Cathy did an excellent job with my cats. They can sometimes get into trouble when they're left alone, but Ashley made sure to play with them a lot and calm their nerves about being alone while I was gone. They really got comfortable with both ladies and so didn't get into any trouble, for which I am very grateful! Especially since last time I came home from a vacation my cats had destroyed a bunch of my stuff haha! Would highly recommend Ashley and Mrs. Cathy!”

About: Hey guys, my names Trey :) I’ve taken care of animals of every breed/size. Growing up, my parents always allowed me to have animals. I had dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, pigs, horses, rats, and reptiles. As you can see, I don’t discriminate on what animal you may have and all are welcomed here! At 15, I had my first job as a dog groomer. I was in charge of grooming, kennel upkeep, walking, and boarding. I have two dogs, and a bearded dragon who are spoiled with unconditional love. Currently working full time from home, so I’d have plenty of time to watch over your fur babies. I keep up with posting dates that im available, if there’s a day open I’ll be all yours! I have a fenced in yard with enough room for them to run around and release some energy. I have two dogs, who are extremely sweet and gets along with others. They’d love to have a friend around.. possible to keep them separate as well. Also have my own vehicle, so picking up and bringing your buddy to parks is no problem. I’m able to tailor to your pets needs and get accustomed to their daily schedule. While your animal is in my care, I’ll follow up with text and photos to keep your mind at peace :).
