With Us, Fur Friends Are Family

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is Matt and I’ve been taking care of pets since I was young as my family always had a dog. I have also taken care of neighbor’s dogs, cats, and guinea pigs from time to time over the years. I wish I could have a dog again but my current living situation prevents that so I always welcome the opportunity to play with, walk, or take care of dogs at home. Also, my partner and I currently have three wonderful cats and welcome any opportunity to care for and play with cats as well! My partner, Alyssa F., has recently joined me on Rover however for any previous clients I, Matt, will still be the one taking care of your pets! We're in the process of updating our information/pictures to reflect the both of us. *Alyssa* here! I do primarily drop-ins that Matt may not be able to do schedule-wise. I have been taking care of both cats and dogs since I was very young, and I have experience with dogs and cats of all breeds!

Matt and Alyssa were great! They were patient with our cat and took great care of her while we were away.

Safety, trust & environment

I am reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. Any instructions left for me will be followed to the letter to ensure your pet gets exactly what they need. Specifics are a must as I want to make sure there’s nothing I’m leaving out of your pet’s important daily routine and care!

Information Matt & Alyssa D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog or cat has any specific needs or behaviors that I an account for such as being shy or generally unsure about new people. Aggressive behaviors must be communicated before I meet the pet so I can assess accordingly whether I can accept a booking. This is for my own safety. For me, specifics are key with all aspects of pet care as I want to ensure your pet is cared for as you yourself would care for them.

A typical day

A typical visit or walk will depend on your pet! I’m committed to making sure your dog or cat gets what they need to make sure they are happy and comfortable with any play activities or walks.
