WFH = attentive care & fun times

Pet care experience

Working from home means I'm with your pup all day. My best bud Bandit (7yr old Australian Cattle Dog) loves having new friends over. I'm active throughout the day taking walks along the Schuylkill & going to the parks and trails in the Wissahickon. Many of my clients say that with the photos I send - that it looks like their dogs are having more of a vacation than they are. I got started dog sitting for some friends with a 1yr old chihuahua mix, and a 9yr old Basset Hound down in Cabo San Lucas. I had Bandit with me the whole time. The three dogs were quite the trio. The poor basset hound got sick and I connected with vet to get him the right medication to get better. I’m attentive and caring. Bandit can’t wait to meet you!

I can’t thank Matt enough for the outstanding job he did with my girl, Pearl. He was patient with her, kind, and just a joy to have him look out for her while we were away. Matt eased my fears and opened up his home to my dog with no problems. He kept in constant contact and Bandit is a great boy too! I know Pearl will be in great hands (and paws) on our next family vacation. Thanks again, Matt, for just being an awesome person!
