I work from home at a pretty chill pace so taking dogs for spontaneous walks is the ideal schedule for me. I also run a pretty strict no human food policy for pups

Information Matt W. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special requirements and I will do my best to be accommodating towards them. I have no problems giving medicine or special dietary needs.

A typical day

Depending on how social your pets are most days involve a trip to the park to get their energy out and a few walks throughout the day. I work from home so my schedule is flexible on when and how often they get walked.

Highly recommend Matt. He is punctual and communicates very well. I initially used him when my regular rover guy was on vacation. Now I use Matt full time as I was more impressed with him. We work long hours and work about an hour away. And I do not stress if my babies are being taken care of.

Our sweet Stormi always gets very excited when we pull up to Matt’s! Stormi is here at least once a week and we feel very comfortable leaving him in Matt’s care! Thanks Matt! :)

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
