Experienced Pet Friend!!

Pet care experience

To put the "pet" in "pet-tastic," and care for furballs with more enthusiasm than a dog chasing its own tail. Some testimonials: "I've never met a pet sitter who can make even the grumpiest cat purr like Matt. Absolutely pawsome!" - A Satisfied Cat Parent "Matt is the dog's best friend. He takes care of my furry buddy like he's part of the family. Highly recommended!" - A Happy Dog Owner "Always reliable, with a heart as big as a St. Bernard. Our pets adore Matt, and so do we!" - A Grateful Pet Parent

Matt was great! Maeve is a 100 lb American bulldog and she’s one so she has lots of energy. Matt took her on long walks to tire her out. We’ll definitely call Matt again.

Matt is a trustworthy man! I have a needy French bulldog. Matt is very attentive and nurturing. I'm pretty sure my dog likes him more than she likes me. I highly recommend Matt to anybody with a pet. He is magic. Like Ace Ventura!

Matt watched our two labradoodles and took exceptional care of them. They were active and snuggled. Matt gave us a full recap of the boys night. And then we were late getting back and he was super gracious. Thank you again Matt🥰

Matt was great! He watched our puppy (Monk) diligently and distracted him when he got into stuff (as pups do). He played fetch with him in the backyard and I came home to a happy and tired puppy. I highly recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

Whatever im asked to do, I do! If you want your buddy taken out 3x we're going out 3x! I do like to spend some time earning their trust first and making them feel safe around me before we go out. That way they know my voice and respond to me positively.

Information Matt Y. would like to know about your pet

I REALLY want to make it clear I LOVE to have a full on book of phone numbers and feeding times and little things that you want me to know. No detail is too small. Remember, there is this tall stranger in THEIR house and I want them to trust me like YOU WILL!

A typical day

Oh MAN! It REALLY depends on the owners and what they like their family to do. AND also the relationship I have with the friend. If i feel we can go for walks in public we will do that. but also if the buddy is a skittish one then we can just hang out at the house and watch a movie while they receive LOTS of pets!

My schedule is wide open for your furry friend's needs. The only day off I like to have is Sundays for my sports and hanging with my non furry friends and family. (I COULD probably be talked into picking it up though) I do not mind overnights or all day stays. In fact I prefer them. I like to build a solid trust with the lil ones..
