Looking Forward to Petting Your Pup

I was raised in a rural area surrounded by all kinds of animals, and we always had dogs and cats growing up. I have had the pleasure of dog and cat sitting numerous times over the years. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and enjoy spending time with them.

Safety, trust & environment

I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet in my care. I stick closely to their pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and any medications to help them feel secure and stress-free. I’m attentive to instructions, respectful of the home, and make sure doors, gates, and leashes are always secure.

Matthew is fantastic! My boys love him. I feel so much better knowing he's coming everyday to take them for their walk. What a blessing!

Everything appeared to be taken care of to my specifications and my cats were happy and healthy when I got home! Matthew was also very communicative and friendly throughout my time being gone. Will book with him again!

Matthew was available for a last minute dog walk. He was very communicative, on time, and handled our anxious pup well. We will definitely use him in the future. Would recommend!

We had Matt help us with regular dog walking and a few last-minute walks - he was fantastic and very responsive for both! The dogs took to him quickly and he was on time and communicative! Highly recommend and hope to work with Matt again in the future.
