Experienced Animal Lover

Pet care experience

Huge animal lover with roughly 16 years of experience taking care of cats and dogs. I personally have 7 cats and have had as many as 5 dogs in my care at the same time. I have been walking dogs in Philadelphia and the surrounding areas for roughly 10 years without incident, and I love doing it. I have experience with dogs as little as 5lbs, and as big as 150lb. I also have experience with puppies under 6 months old, as well as senior dogs with special needs. I have experience giving oral medications and eyedrops if needed. I also love cats, and have just as much experience taking care of our feline friends. I've taken care of newborn kittens, and senior cats with health issues. I can handle any of your pet needs.

I have a 3 year old Greyhound. Also, I'm a runner. I don't have a big yard, even though I do let Jerry out, he needs to run because of the high energy dog that he is. I take him on a mile long run every day. Greyhounds are running dogs, so it works for me. I had to go away on a business trip lasting a week. I was worried about whether or not Jerry would be ok in a kennel, and I couldn't afford one of those doggy hotel type of places. So I called Matt who was just starting to walk dogs around the area. He not only took amazing car of Jerry but actually took great care of my home while I was gone. The entire house was cleaned free of charge. He brought my mail inside, took my trash out, washed my dishes, and put them away, and ran with Jerry which I really appreciated. He's also right on par if not better with his price. Because he includes all the cleaning and everything, I thought 60 a day was a bargain. I highly recommend him.

Information Matt C. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds. And the information I'd like to know is what the dog is used to. Meaning, some dogs go outside before they eat in the morning, some dogs like to eat when they wake up and then go outside. I like to replicate what the home is like when the homeowner is usually there so that the dog doesn't get thrown off.

A typical day

Time I'll spend with your dog Depends on what you want. Look at my profile and under the about me I have written many options from you to choose from. Extra house-sitting services Yes. I'll bring in the mail and newspaper, take the trash out ( only if I'm sleeping there while you are away, or you opt for the $60 package), water plants, and will buy food for your dog if you run out free of charge.
