Loves dogs!

Hello! I'm Matt Dean, and I'm a passionate dog lover with experience caring for dogs. I understand how important your furry companion is to you, and I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether it’s a short visit, a walk in the park, or a stay at my home, I’m here to ensure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I live with my girlfriend in a spacious, dog-friendly home with access to a large park within walking distance. I also love to take walks and can make sure your dog gets plenty of exercise, playtime, and snuggles. I offer flexible sitting services, from drop-in visits to overnight stays, tailored to your dog's specific needs. We have a Brittany spaniel named bill who loves all animals and humans My Services: Dog Sitting (Overnight): Your dog will enjoy a comfortable and loving environment in my home, with plenty of space for them to relax or play. Dog Walking: I offer walks at your dog’s pace, whether it's a quick stroll or an energetic run to burn off some energy. Why Choose Me? Reliable: I am always punctual and dependable. Safe & Loving Environment: I ensure your dog’s safety and happiness, whether it’s at my home or during our walks. Personalized Care: I take the time to understand your dog’s routine, preferences, and any special care they need (medications, food restrictions, etc.). Frequent Updates: I’ll keep you informed with photos and updates during your dog’s stay to give you peace of mind. Additional Information: I am happy to accommodate special requests (like dietary needs or behavior concerns). I’m familiar with a wide range of dog breeds and can handle dogs with varying activity levels and temperaments. My home is a safe and loving environment, with plenty of space for your dog to explore and feel at ease. I would love to meet you and your dog to discuss how I can best take care of your furry friend. Feel free to send me a message with any questions, and I’ll get back to you as soon as possible! Let's make your dog feel right at home!

Archie had a fab time at Matt and Mel’s! He stayed with them and their gorgeous dog, Bill, for a week whilst we were on holiday. We had regular updates and photos so knew Archie was safe, happy and cared for. Archie and Bill got on very well - I think Archie is missing Bills company already! We would definitely book Matt and Mel again. Thank you both for taking such good care of Archie.

Matt was brilliant with our little dog. Sent us lovely goofy pictures and a few updates while we were away without being overwhelming and catered to her normal routine like a pro. Really good experience and would happily return to him!

Bluey has a great time staying with Matt! He had plenty of activity but also time to chill. It was obvious from the photos that Bluey felt very at home!! Would book again.

Matt was very warm and loving to my pup. He took great care of him and provided me photos and updates through the day. My dog and I would both recommend Matt and will be using him again.
