I'm a dog's best friend.

Pet care experience

I've lived with dogs for almost 20 years. Currently, I have a 9-year-old yellow lab. I like to run, swim, hike, and play. I've also trained every dog I've lived with. I have a very flexible schedule and a fenced in back yard. My first dog was an Akita. As a teenager I raised him from a puppy. I have made my own dog food and dog treats, combining my hobbies of cooking and dogs. I'm available most days, as my full-time job allows for schedule flexibility. I have most weekends available as well. Ideally, I'm looking for a few repeat clients where their dog can become a part of my family; and I can be one of their dog's people. I believe that dogs are proof that someone out there loves us and wants us to be happy.

Matt had a fenced in yard that our dogs loved. He sent us a video every day of our dogs playing outside which was really nice to see. He was responsive to any questions we had and made the process easy. I would recommend him to anyone who is in need of dog sitting.

Matt is a great dog sitter! He’s supper attentive, caring and will take care of you fur baby just like they are one of his own. Long walks, fetch and belly rubs are all in store for your pup when Matt's in charge! He has watched my pup, Hank many times and it has been nothing short of a wonderful experience for both Hank and myself. It’s always comforting to know that when you have to leave your pup you are leaving him in great care and that is exactly what you will be doing when you leave your pup with Matt.

Matt has owned and cared for dogs from infancy. As an infant and young child he was best friends with his Grandfather's Samoyed. In elementary school his first dog was an Akita which he picked out and helped me train and care for. He has cared for his mother's King Charles Cavalier Spaniel. He owns and trained, by himself, a Yellow Labrador. Matt is responsible and will do what he says. Your dog could not be in better hands. Yes, I am Matt's dad so I may be a bit biased, but as he and his mom will tell you, my concern for the well being of the dogs often seems to exceed my immediate concern for them. Your dog will be in good hands with Matt.
