This was Gigis first time with Matt. For someone whho is not totally comfy with Gigi being left with a new doggy sitter, I had no doubts that Gigi did just fine. A definite 5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you Matt !!

Matt did a great job taking care of Beau during my last trip. Beau came back happy and tired and looking forward to his next visit

Matt and his crew were incredible! We got multiple daily updates with photos and videos. Our dogs tend to have separation anxiety, and we were worried about how they would do away from home. But they did great, all thanks to the great care Matt provided. Our dogs also got along great with Kobe, and were constantly playing and having fun. We would highly recommend Matt as a sitter, as he was very attentive and accommodating. We will definitely be using Matt as a sitter again in the future!

Matt & his wife exceeded my expectations! This was my first time using a dog sitter & I was a little nervous initially because my dogs are my furry babies but I could tell as soon as I met these two, there was nothing to worry about. Matt kept me updated everyday with pics/videos and telling me about their day. He made sure they stayed on the same diet & eating schedule as I had them on. With every picture he sent, I could tell that they were having a blast. If you want assurance that your dog(s) will be well cared for, then don’t hesitate & book with Matt. He will be my go to for all of our dog sitting sessions for now on. Thank you so much again, Matt!
