**DOG & CAT FIRST AID/CPR CERTIFIED** **experience with rabbits/hamsters/guinea pigs** I have helped take care of my neighbors cats for the last 15 years or so.

Matt has a natural talent with caring for pets. He is caring, attentive and responsible. Matt is easy to communicate with and a pleasure to have for an overnight pet sit, drop-in or walk. He will leave your home clean and pets happy as can be!

I have known and worked with Matthew for about a decade. Matt would help me out when I needed assistance with my cats and my sons guinea pig during vacations and medical emergencies. Matt would send me pictures of my pets to let me know they are safe and was very proactive about cleaning their litter box and cage. As a worker, he was always on time and came with a great attitude. He is such a problem solver when needed. I would heavily recommend Matthew for his integrity and his love of animals . -Judy

I am writing to enthusiastically recommend my brother, Matthew, as a pet caregiver. Having known him for 28 years, I can attest to his unwavering character, trustworthiness, and genuine love for animals. Over the years, Matthew has cared for our entire menagerie, including our Pomeranian, our cat, and our Labrador. Each of these animals has very different temperaments and needs, yet he handled them all with patience, care, and expertise. Whether it was managing the high energy of our Lab, the specific grooming needs of our Pomeranian, or the independent nature of our cat, he approached every task with knowledge and dedication. Beyond his practical skills, what stands out most is his integrity. Knowing him for nearly three decades, I have never once questioned his reliability. He is the kind of person who treats your home and your pets as if they were his own. I cannot recommend him highly enough for any pet-sitting or animal care role. He is a rare find: knowledgeable, caring, and completely trustworthy.
