Matei took amazing care of my pup while I was away - he was asking questions, sharing photos, and giving Marcy lots of attention. Highly recommend and would definitely book again! 🐾

Matei has looked after 1 of my dogs, and happily arranged a meet and greet with my more anxious dog, before he was due to look after her. Matei is very understanding and flexible, and open and transparent; his love of animals is clear, and he caters to your pet’s individual needs. Franx came home in a great mood, happy and playful, after spending the day with Matei & his wife. Fees are very reasonable and affordable. I’d definitely recommend Matei, & look forward to him caring for my dogs again in the future.

Matei was great, punctual for the drop off / collection and gave us regular updates. Gaia was happy to stay with the host and came up in a good mood. Recommended!

Schedule

Pet care is a natural and enjoyable part of my everyday routine. I structure my days around the pets I host — starting each morning with walks, feeding, and playtime, and keeping plenty of breaks throughout the day for attention, cuddles, and outdoor time. I’m around the house to give pets constant care and supervision. In the evenings, I make sure everyone gets one last round of outdoor time, dinner, and lots of affection before winding down for a calm night. Caring for pets isn’t just a task for me — it’s part of my lifestyle and something I enjoy every day.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they feel completely safe, comfortable, and loved from the moment they arrive. I keep a calm, clean environment and tailor each pet’s routine to match what they’re used to at home — including their feeding schedule, walks, and preferred play or rest times. Our building is wonderfully pet-friendly, with an enclosed garden for fresh air and sunshine. Pets have plenty of space to relax or play, and I’m always nearby to give them attention and supervision throughout the day. When I care for pets in an owner’s home, I do my best to maintain their regular routine and environment so they feel secure and happy. I follow all care instructions closely — from feeding and walks to medication and bedtime habits — and make sure the home is left tidy and cared for.

A typical day

I love keeping pets active, curious, and happy during their stay! Depending on their personality and energy level, we’ll enjoy a mix of playtime, exercise, and relaxation. Dogs love our enclosed garden, where we can play fetch, explore, or just enjoy some sunshine. The house development I live in is perfect for safe walks, or training sessions. For more relaxed pups (and cats!), there’s plenty of cuddle time, gentle brushing, and enrichment games like snuffle mats or treat puzzles.

It’s really helpful for me to know as much as possible about your pet’s personality, routine, and any special needs before their stay. Every pet is unique, and understanding their habits helps me make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Some of the details I like to learn ahead of time include: • Feeding schedule, portion sizes, and favorite treats 🍗 • Exercise needs or activity level 🐕 • How they get along with other pets or new people 🐾 • Any anxieties, fears, or triggers (e.g., loud noises, separation, grooming) • Medical conditions, medications, or allergies 💊 • Preferred sleeping arrangements and daily routines 💤
These prices are for 1 dog.
