Matt house sat with our dog Alfie for 2 weeks and kept him active with long walks, runs and trips to the beach. Alfie liked Mike as soon as he met him. Mike kept our home clean and even took care of the garden. We hope he'll be available next time we travel.

Friendly, communicative, and super attentive to our sweet pup! Was great to have someone housesitting as well. Would absolutely book again 😊

Matt is an animal lover, as we'll as an outdoor enthusiast. This combination makes him ideal for dog walking. Your pet will be in safe hands, and no doubt, look forward to his visits.
