We’ll have fun, no bones about it!

Pet care experience

I have been helping take care of dogs since I was a kid. My family has always had a couple of dogs at any time so I have experience managing small dogs like yorkies, medium ones like beagles, even up to really large dogs like Great Danes. I have also watched and cared for a close friend’s dog consistently for four years and she sees me as a second parent. I currently have a long hair domestic cat named Ellie that I’ve raised since she was 2 months old and is now 7 years old. I have always had the ability to get along well with any animal and usually end up being one of their favorite people. I really love working with all breeds and would be excited to help take care of your dog! I work from home so I can give your pet all the attention they need if they’re staying with my or drop by anytime for check-ins and walks. With house sittings I would be able to stay with your furry loved one the whole time and attend to any of their needs. My house has a fenced in back yard and is in a quiet neighborhood with plenty of parks, so we’re guaranteed to get in some quality exercise and play time! I am very attentive and affectionate with dogs and cats. I will make sure your pet feels cared for and match their energy during activities. They are my sole focus when I am with them and therefore will receive 100% of my attention.

Matt is awesome. He slowly won our very apprehensive cat over, visit by visit. We came home to a happy cat and organized house. It felt like we weren’t gone at all. We will definitely have him watch our Ollie Bear next time we’re away ☺️

She had a lovely time with Matt. She is an energetic girl and she came home as if she wasn’t gone at all! Matt understood her need for exercise and welcomed her anyway! Thanks Matt!
