Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of my friends, family and neighbors pets ever since I was a kid. My first dog was a Labrador/Golden Retriever mix named Zack, we got him when I was 5. He was my sidekick for 14 years. After Zack passed, I rescued a 6 y/o Australian Shepard, Maggie, who lived with me thru college then spent her last years with my parents in Rhode Island as she aged. She spent a great 8+ years with me and my family after being rescued. I currently don’t have my own pup, but hopefully will in the next year or two. True dog lover.. but cats are cool too :)

Matt is very caring and kind and has a very natural way of interacting with pets. Matt has taking care of my dogs in the past and I was very at ease knowing they were in capable and trusted hands. I highly recommend Matt to be a dog walker/pet sitter, your pet will thank you!

A typical day

Happy to take them wherever the owner recommends. Typically like to take a car ride to the beach or park depending on the dogs preferred games (run around, fetch, etc.). Have also skateboarded with my own dogs in the past, happy to do that too if the neighborhood and road is safe enough!
