Social worker and dog lover!

Pet care experience

I grew up around dogs, and have loved them my whole life. I provide reliable and responsible dog sitting through my decades of love and experience with dogs. Over 5 years ago I adopted my dog Digby from the Boston Animal Shelter, and he has been my constant companion and best friend ever since! My wife and I live in a wonderful Dorchester neighborhood with a fenced in backyard that is less than a half mile from the beach! I'll treat your dog as if they are my own when they are in my house!

Matt is fantastic! He was friendly, communicative, and generally easy to deal with. He also had an obvious love for dogs that made me feel totally comfortable leaving Louie with him. My pup came home tired and happy. A+

Matt was wonderful! I normally leave my dog with someone who is a family or friend, so I was understandably nervous about leaving him with a new person. Matt took my anxiety in stride and we set up a meet and greet so I could go over Gus' habits and quirks. During the 4 days I was away he kept me updated and sent some pictures of Gus on their walks. I would highly recommend Matt and look forward to using him again the next time I am out of town!

Matt did a great job taking care of Huxley. Matt was responsive to my messages and sent me updates during Huxley's stay. Huxley went on great walks and was happy when I returned home. Matt was also flexible in drop-off and pick-up.

Information Matt V. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know about your dog's personality, energy level, and how they get along with other dogs. My dog Digby is a senior dog who is very amiable, though is not much of a playmate as his favorite activity is sleeping!

A typical day

Whether it's walks around the block or to nearby Savin Hill Park and Malibu Beach, I can't wait for the fun that I'll have watching your dog!
