Large open and secluded yard

Pet care experience

I have been a dog owner for almost my whole life! I currently have a very friendly 9 year-old golden retriever who loves playing in our large open yard and exploring in the woods on our property. I live in a quiet suburban neighborhood which is the perfect place for dogs of any breed and size in terms of safety and walking routes. I've also had many years of experience dog-sitting for family and friends so I know what to expect! Our property is also very secluded and well-kept year round to provide your dog with the most comfortable and fun experience possible! Your dog will receive the care he or she deserves at all times while they are staying here! I look forward to looking after your dog!

Matt was very friendly and responsive to all messages. We believe our pup, Aspen loved her stay with him and his family. She didn’t want to leave when we picked her up. Don’t question it, go ahead and book with Matt!

Matt was really sweet and super chill. Our dog Eevee looked like she had a great time and felt so comfortable at his home. Matt was very responsive and updated us with a photo everyday. Eevee even got to play in the snow~ We would definitely recommend and would love to use him again.

Super great dog sitter! Our dog spent 2 nights with Matt. Totally impressed. Our pup was happy to see us, clearly not stressed at all and obviously extremely well taken care of! Thanks Matt!!

Matt and his family treated Brady as their own. Their dog welcomed our pup into his home and they seemed to get along quite well! Brady came back home exhausted and healthy. We will definitely book with Matt again. Thank you so much for taking care of our puppy!
