Can't wait to care for your pup!
Pet care experience
Hey there! My name's Mattea. I recently moved to Kensington from DC - I miss hanging out with friends' dogs & would love to hang with yours! Since graduation I have very badly wanted to get my own dog or cat but haven't been able to because of my living situation. I have been living vicariously through friends who have dogs for too long! I would love to hang out, walk and play with your pup! I'm responsible, prompt and attentive. Nothing bums me out more than the thought of a dog being kenneled or left alone for hours without a human. I grew up caring for my family dogs - Hannah & Buddy - and dog-sitting for neighbors. Buddy - a sweet, goofy black lab/chow mutt - had an auto-immune disorder & required special care, so I have experience giving extra attention to dogs with special needs! Namely, Buddy required oral medication and regular baths with medicated shampoo & post bath medicinal lotion.
Reviews
I was very happy to have Mattea watch our dog for the weekend! She responded quickly to my messages, provided photo updates (of her cute kitten sleeping with my pup!), and provided plenty of walks and exercise for her. I definitely recommend her and would book again in the future!
Mattea is an extremely responsible and caring person. She is always excited to meet and hang out with dogs of every shape and size. Her compassion for all things living is unmatched, this is made apparent whenever she is in the company of animals, especially dogs! I truly can't think of a better person to choose to take care of your pet(s). Mattea will provide your four legged family members with all the care they need and I know she will go the extra mile every time in order for your beloved pets to feel comfortable and loved. If you are looking for someone who will make your dog's tail wag uncontrollably with joy and excitement each time they come for a walk or a visit, you need not look any further!

Information Mattea F. would like to know about your pet
Having cared for especially skittish dogs before, I would like to know how your dog reacts to other dogs: can I take him or her to the dog park? Should I position myself between your pup and other doggos on our walks? If so, is she or he skittish only around larger dogs? Of course, I would like to know about any particular dietary or medical needs. Otherwise, give me the scoop when we meet!
A typical day
I love walking with friends with dogs around DC parks - Meridian Hill is a special favorite. If your dog is high energy, I might bring him or her to a friend's enclosed yard to get a good run in! & if your dog is OK around other pups, I would love to mosey down to the local dog park and let them play!
