Full-time friend to every dog

Pet care experience

I am a Tucson transplant from Chicago, from Tucson, from Chicago. So as well as being twice familiar with the Windy City, I am just as acquainted with Tucson. I am living with my girlfriend, downtown who is equally as enthusiastic as I am about animal care. When I first moved, I left my beloved Spaniel/Lab mix behind with my parents and I missed her dearly, so I was eager to open my home to a variety of pets to fill that space, and provided a wonderful experience for many peoples’ companions. I have owned a pet nearly every year I have been alive and have experience with the nuances of care that seniors and other temperamental behaviors come with. I am currently home full-time and while I cannot allow your pet inside my home this time around, I will gladly trek any distance in and around the Tucson area, to provide any walking, brief overseeing or stay-in care for your pet. I can accommodate any routine, adjustments or other specifics requested to make sure your pet has the best, most comfortable time as possible. I look forward to meeting and befriending your four-legged friends.

Matt is a repeat sitter for us. He’s communicative and respectful. It’s evident in the photos how content our pup is under Matt’s care!

Matt was reliable and made sure my dogs were looked after while I had to be away. He took time to meet the dogs and get familiar with the house. Thank you Matt!

I came home to a healthy and happy cat. Matt even watered my plants. Although Matt did a good job, there were some misunderstandings regarding my expectations and I felt some of my instructions weren't followed as carefully as I would have liked. Overall, however, Matt is a good cat sitter.

Safety, trust & environment

Being intimately familiar with animal care, it is my utmost priority that I do whatever I can to keep your pet(s) safe. Being as I am simply offering entering your home space, I can assure that whatever instructions for how you usually keep your companion safe and comfortable is the same procedure I will adhere to.

Information Matt G. would like to know about your pet

No breeds are off-limits for me, but I would like to be aware of any supplemental information about your dog that would ensure the best possible quality of care, play and general observance.

A typical day

As I am not hosting pets at my own home, fun and engaging locations for walks will be variable depending on your location. I like to tailor my approach to each individual pet, and depending on their personality and the location, I choose an approach and activities accordingly. I also strive to include health and wellness activities that are valued by the owners and are part of a pet’s routine.
