Loving home, long walks

Pet care experience

Whether you are looking for dog sitting or dog walking, your dog will be spoilt! I would love to take your dog on safe, fun, and energy-expending walks. I would love to take good care of your dog, whether it’s on walks or for boarding. I also live in a house of dog-lovers. There are six of us in the house and we go on frequent walks, including to many near-by parks in the Harvard square area. We also have a modest fenced in back yard for your dog to play in, with six-foot tall fences. I have the ability to care for a wide range of sizes and energy levels. Your desires for how your dog is being trained, and your boundaries, will be reinforced including going on furniture and leash training. We are happy to open up our home to your dog until your return, and we are grateful for your trust. COVID-19: everyone in our home works from home and otherwise observes all recommendations to stay safe from COVID-19.

We and Lola had great stay experiences with Matt's sitting during the winter breaks! Matt is very friendly and professional. The greet and meet went well, Lola simply loves Matt and the place right away. During the sitting, Matt kindly sent me Lola's pictures and how she's been doing along the breaks, the lovely pictures bright my day and we all can relax to enjoy our away trip. The communication went very well. When something unusal comes up, he honestly kept me updated and with all the solutions. We really appreciate it. We will definitely return in the future when Lola needs the sitter again! Thank you Matt! Happy new year! Kelly

Matt was wonderful. I was hesitant to leave Oliver over the holidays but Matt was very responsive and made me feel comfortable leaving my dog for an extended time. He made himself available to meet Oliver prior to the stay and shared daily updates/photos. Oliver came home happy and safe! I'd use Matt again as a sitter.
