Pets

Heart & unconditional love

Pet care experience

I am a avid dog lover with a open heart and unconditional love for dogs. I have experience raising aggressive dogs and lap dogs. I am very patient with special needs dogs and dogs that need more time adapting. I love taking long walks and playing with dogs. I know dog CPR, am willing to admister oral medication, bathe your dog and brush as well. Basically, I will treat your dog like a member of my family as he/she is a member of yours. This isn't a full-time service for me, but I am willing to give 110% to taking care of your family member. I do prefer at least a 12 hour notice for any cancelation. I am also 100% committed to your directions as to how to care for your family member.

Matt was responsive to messages and respectful in our presence. We were very hopeful things would go great. However the schedule as discussed wasn't kept at all. He brought another man into our home unannounced, that our dogs didn't like. And they were in n out all hours of the night on our ring cam. He also scared the blazes out of the Mrs. by pointing the living cameras at the wall, used to check on the dogs.

Matt was very attentive and went above and beyond while he cared for my two large dogs. It was a relief to know that my dogs were in good hands while I was away for a week. I would not hesitate to rebook with Matt in the future or refer him to friends and family in need of pet sitting services.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
