Dependable dog care.

Pet care experience

I’ve have had dogs since I was 12. For the last decade, I've been the go-to dog sitter and trainer among my family and friends. I love working with dogs regardless of age, size, or temperament. I will work with you to insure your pups have only positive experiences with me.

Matt was amazing with the dogs! He sent a ton of pictures and updates and the dogs loved him. We will definitely be booking with him in the future!

I highly recommend booking your Rover stay with Matt! He sent photo updates, was great with communication, and is really knowledgeable on dogs and their needs! I felt relaxed knowing scooter was well taken care of and could tell he had SO much fun ?

I cannot say enough great things about Matt! He was so good to our dog Biko. You can tell he is incredibly knowledgeable about all types of dogs and dog personalities. He provided the best care to our pup and gave plenty of updates, photos and videos. I was able to actually relax and feel at peace on vacation knowing Biko was in the best hands. Biko came back happy as can be! Book Matt today!

Matt was great with Posey. He sent us pictures or video every day and made special time for her. His dogs are friendly and fun for our dog.

Safety, trust & environment

I have two well socialized dogs of my own. A 9 year old female German shepherd named Lucy and a 7 month old male border collie named Lincoln. We have a fenced yard, doggie splash pad, and small pool. We also make frequent trips to various dog parks and will with your permission of course. Your dog will be allowed full run of the house if temperament allows but we have several kennels and dog proof rooms if they need space to unwind on their own.

Information Matt M. would like to know about your pet

Drop me a message and let me know: -your dog's temperament -any special needs or concerns (resource guarding, medication, separation anxiety etc.) -if your dog is crate and/or potty trained -anything they're not allowed to do (be on furniture, behaviors, habits you're trying to break, etc.) -anything unique to them you think I should know that will let me give them the best experience possible

A typical day

I think dogs do best with mental and physical stimulation together. We can go on walks, play fetch, or work on new commands and tricks.

I’m currently a stay at home dog dad. Your dog will be under supervision at all times and will have plenty of opportunities to play, go on walks, go to the park, and get *all* the pets.
