Highlights
Pet care experience
Remote working dog lover
We’ve both grown up in households full of pets, from cats and guinea pigs to bearded dragons, but at our core, we’re true dog lovers. Throughout our lives, we’ve been surrounded by different breeds, from Scotties and collies to larger breeds. In our family home now, we share our space with our beloved Weimaraner (Blue), Golden Retriever (Gozo), and a German Shepherd (Saxon). About 50% of the time, our Show Cocker Spaniel, Dash, also joins us, completing our pack. As a couple, we’re very comfortable with big dogs and have a knack for getting them to love us. We’re happy to take them for long walks, feed them, and play with them—it’s as much fun for us as it is for them!

Ratings and reviews
Albert loved Matt and was very happy with him staying. He looked after Albert and my home really well. Communication was great, would definitely recommend and rebook!
Matt house sat for our 1yr old Beagle whilst we were away. He was very punctual and polite and made sure our boy was well looked after. To hear that our boy wasn't crying when we left, due to his separation anxiety, means that he loved Matt too. Would recommend and will use again.
Pip are Springador loved having Matt look after her in are home for the weekend. He communicated well with me before and during his stay with Pip. He clearly has a good bond with dogs and house was looked after.
Matt has looked after my chocolate lab Coco on numerous occasions when I have been away for work. Every time Coco has come back with a spring in her step and clearly loves spending time with Matt! She is getting rather elderly now so mainly benefits from shorter walks to the park. As Matt owns two lovely dogs already, I can always rely on him when needed!
Matt's has always been brilliantly caring and attentive towards my dog, Toby. He's got a caring and calm demeanor and he's always been safe and reliable whenever he takes him out for a walk. Toby loves him and I always feel comfortable when Matt takes Toby for a walk!
Matt was great! He would housesit for my cat any time we went on holiday. He stayed at my house 4 or 5 times, either for a weekend or for a week or so at a time. My cat loved him and we never had a problem wit him looking after the house - he was always very kind and respectful.

Schedule
I work in Bristol as a Project Manager for the NGO STAND, with flexible working arrangements that allow me to work remotely when needed, meaning I can give your pets as much time as they need. My partner, Elvira, works at the University of Bath as a portfolio manager in the IT department, and we both enjoy spending our time with animals.
