I’m currently in a career transition, so I have a flexible schedule and can work with you to meet all your pet care needs. Whether your cat needs quick daily drop-ins for food and litter box care, longer visits for socialization and play, or a combination of the two, I can make it work.

Safety, trust & environment

I will look to you to tell me what kind of care will be best for your cat. I know every cat is different! I’ve known cats with specialized dinner routines or specialized diets, and I’ve also known cats who were not food motivated at all and only wanted to cuddle and play. As long as you provide guidance about what your cat likes and needs, I am committed to providing it.

Information Matilda F. would like to know about your pet

I would definitely want to know how your dog reacts to other dogs and to strangers/people so I can be prepared on walks. I would also want to know how your dog prefers to receive attention (what kind of petting do they most enjoy, or do they prefer play to petting?).

A typical day

My parents’ dogs needed three walks per day, including a long walk midday, so I understand and could meet the need of a dog that needs to be taken out multiple times, including for a longer walk. Where we would walk would depend on your neighborhood.

Mattie took great care of my dog! She was very communicative, sent regular updates, and followed my very quirky dog’s schedule perfectly. I came home to a happy pup and would absolutely recommend Mattie.
