Mateo can care for
Availability
My schedule is incredibly flexible! I don't have a standard 9-to-5 job right now, so I can easily adapt to whatever routine works best for you and your pet. I'm fully available for dog walks and drop-in visits all day long--whether your dog needs an early morning walk, midday potty break or a high-energy evening run.

About Mateo S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When it comes to drop-ins and walks, safety and trust are very important to me. I'll make sure to always follow your entry instructions to a T and double check that all doors, crates, and gates are secrued before I leave. On walks, I keep a firm grip on the leash and make sure to stay fully aware of our surroundings at all times! And thanks to my experience with bigger breeds, I know how to handle and control stronger dogs safely. I will always treat your home and pets with respect and make sure to provide detailed updates and photos!
Information Mateo S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know your pet's unique personality traits, energy levels, quirks, medical needs, and behavioral habits both on and off a leash. I wish to provide the best care possible for your pet and ensure they are taken care off and happy.
A typical day
My walks and drop-in visits are all about fun, exercise, and giving your dog the attention they deserve. When I arrive, we'll head right out for an active walk to burn off some energy. For drop-in visits, I love playing games like fetch, tug-of-war, or just running around with them in general.

Loving Care for Big & Small Pups!
Pet care experience
I have loved animals, especially dogs, since I was a little boy! For the past 10 years, friends and family have trusted me to care for, walk, and watch over their pets. Back home in the Philippines, my family has a pack of 7 dogs, including two large Dobermans and five native breeds. Because of this, I am incredibly comfortable and confident handling bigger, stronger dogs. I love staying active and running around, so I am always excited to take energetic pups on fun, high-energy walks. Whether your dog is big or small, I have the strength and experience to keep them safe and happy:)

Reviews

Mateo is awesome! Super sweet and helpful. He’s great with my puppy and always happy to see her. His communication is great and he’s very flexible! Highly recommend :)
Mateo have been walking my dogs for years now. Not only does he love walking them, he also plays with them. Goes to show how much he loves dogs. He is very reliable and trustworthy thus giving me peace of mind when I leave my dogs with him.
Mateo is an amazing dog sitter! He’s watched my dog, Loki, many times. Loki can be very energetic on walks and pulls a lot but Mateo has always been patient and strong enough to handle him safely. I’ve had no problems with Mateo and would recommend him to anybody looking for an affordable sitter or walker!
If you need someone you can truly trust with your pets, Mateo is 100% your guy. He’s family, so I’ve seen firsthand how amazing he is with animals and the patience and love he has for dogs. He has such a great heart and is an incredibly respectful kid. He’s been watching our dog throughout the years and has always been super responsible with our home and treats our dog like one of his own. He pays great attention to detail which makes it easy for us to trust him and be stress-free when we’re away. I can’t recommend him enough!
