Your dogs best friend for the day

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Matt! I recently was in Durango and am now in Denver. I have always lived with a family dog and have raised three of the five from puppies. I have my own dog now Ellie, who is a chocolate lab. I picked up sitting with Rover when I was in college and needed my dog fix and some extra cash. I now use it on both ends as a sitter and a client.

Matt was great. Our dog was exhausted when he got home - always a great sign. Matt made an effort to plan activities with our dog - walks, beach time and hiking.

Matt was awesome! Very flexible with my somewhat erratic scheduling and dune (the dog) loved him! He's a rescue so usually quite shy around strangers but when I dropped him off day #2 his tail went crazy. He's a very high energy dog but both days we picked him up he immediately fell asleep upon getting home. Great care and updates throughout the day.

This was our first time leaving our dog with a sitter and needed someone to watch him with short notice. Matt was available and was able to watch our dog for the day. Matt was very good at replying to my messages. He took our dog on a walk. Even though our dog missed us in the beginning, Matt said he did well and I agree. Matt is definitely someone we can rely on and would recommend him to anyone needing a sitter. We look forward to him watching our dog when we are back in Incline Village.

Matt was super accommodating to our scheduling changes, which is key for me! Sadie was chill and content when we brought her home, which is not typical for her after being boarded out. Clearly her needs were met while staying with Matt. Highly recommend Matt!

I prefer to take dogs on walks and watch them in their own home as it is most comfortable for them. I live in a studio with a fenced yard so while it is not ideal I host, it is possible.
