I’d honestly do it for free

Pet care experience

After getting my golden retriever a little over four years ago, I discovered a deep love for dogs that led me to train my Ella as a service animal, become heavily involved in volunteering for local rescue organizations, and learn everything I could about canine health, behavior, and safety. I treat every pup I meet as if he/she is my own and am so excited to look after your dog. I’m currently available at any time, 7 days a week, almost always available last minute for any service. I’m also on the similar Wag app! I’ve fostered dozens of dogs of all kinds including puppies, dogs displaced by hurricanes, and dogs with medical conditions. I’m probably glad to accommodate any other requests so just ask! 3 bedroom home with screened porch and front and back yards. I live in a quiet neighborhood 4 blocks from a large park.

Matt was a great dog walker, and I would definitely hire him again! He was on-time and communicative and my dog Watson loved spending time with him!

This was my first experience with any Rover sitter and I’m so glad it was with Matt! Matt was so kind and flexible and kept me regularly updated with all sorts of videos and photos. It’s obvious he just loves dogs, and my sweet pup definitely enjoyed her time with him and other doggie visitors!

Matt was absolutely phenomenal. He sent many video and photo updates throughout the day. He also asked great questions and overall put our mind at ease when boarding with him

Information Matt B. would like to know about your pet

I truly love all dogs but as a long-time golden retriever owner, I suppose I’ll always have a soft(er) spot for them! But I have experience caring for all kinds of dogs and just ask that I be alerted of any triggers or other details that will help me keep your dog (and me) safe!

A typical day

I love being active and will take your dog on walks according to his or her own pace and needs. If they’re playful, I love getting down on the ground with them. My West Roxbury neighborhood is a great place for dog walks and there’s a huge park 4 blocks away!
