Information Matt T. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about your dog's personality and special needs. A brief overview of your pup's typical day is beneficial, including feeding times and amounts, conventional wake and sleep hours, potty schedules, and any medications they may take. I haven't met a dog I didn't bond with quickly, and I look forward to caring for yours.

A typical day

I live alone with my dog, Memphis, and your pup will have all my attention during their stay. 100% of the time! There are a dozen Kong®, GoDog®, and Nylabone® toys for him or her to play with safely, along with my dog, who is gentle and friendly. I don't have a fenced yard, but your pup will NEVER leave my home without a leash and all my attention. My house is well protected against fleas & ticks, and my dog Memphis uses Simparica Trio®. She is also up to date with all her shots, vaccines, and boosters, including rabies, and is licensed here in Montcalm County. I have 2 large crates with pads that can be used if requested, but I will spend ALL my time with your pup and won't leave them unattended in my house.

I cannot say enough good things about Matt! He was incredible with our two boys, so communicative, and made sure they got ample time outside and on trails! Very happy we found him!

Matt was amazing! You could tell he has a lot of love for every dog. He messaged and kept me updated with pictures regularly.
