The Caesar Milan of pet care

Pet care experience

I've been taking care of pets, plants and homes for the last ten years. I believe in having a pet owner coming back to their pet/home in better shape than they left them. I've encountered many different personalities of pets over the years and understand each has different needs and desires. I ensure that the pet is comfortable with the environment and myself by building a relationship of trust.

Matt was absolutely wonderful. Zingo had a hard time adjusting but Matt never gave up and made sure that he was as comfortable as possible. I’m so thankful that Matt took the best care of our cat. Can’t recommend him enough.

Matt was great! Champ came home exhausted so I know he received great attention and care. I would definitely book him to stay with Matt again!

We have use Matt for years and I wouldn’t trust anyone else with our dogs! He is the most caring dog sitter I’ve ever had and my dogs look forward to visiting with him and being loved by him! We have had a dog that had some health issues and he made it so easy for us to not worry about leaving out of town for a couple of days I highly recommend Matt, he is the only pet sitter we have and wouldn’t look for anyone else other than him for our dogs!

Matt did a great job watching our two dachshunds while we went away for a weekend. He took time each day to throw their toys for some exercise and was careful to feed the right amount for each dog. He had some really cute pics when we came back too!

I enjoy going on walks and runs so getting outside is always a good time. I'm willing to adapt for all types of dogs so staying inside is perfectly fine too.
