Pet care experience

Dog Dad & Dog Walker

Hello! Recently, I was laid off from my job in corporate america, and am now working part time and walking people’s pups! As a pet owner myself, I take pride in making sure our pets have the proper care and are thriving. I’ve taken care of friends and family’s pets before, walking, playing, and feeding, and I’m looking forward to caring care of your pet too! A little about me: 🏳️‍🌈🏋️‍♂️🧳🫐🍣

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Personally, my dogs love to be outside but do not like the heat.. so having indoor play space is a plus! Tug of war and a light game of fetch is our “go to”, and I can’t wait to play with your pup too!

Matt is a trustworthy dog walker. He is very reliable and is very knowledgeable about dog behavior. Matt is very kind and I would recommend him to anyone looking for a dog walker!

Matt is the best! He’s super flexible and willing to go the extra mile when it comes to caring for my pets. Without a doubt, I will use him again next time I need someone to walk my pup and would recommend him to anyone in need of a dog walker!

Matt is a caring and reliable person, who I would recommend to anyone if they're in need of care for their pet. With a dog of his own, he knows exactly the kind of dedication and attentiveness that animals require. If you decide to choose Matt to look after your pet, you can rest easy - know that they'll receive the love and care that you give them yourself.

I can confidently say Matt is one of the most responsible and dependable people I know. He genuinely enjoys spending time with animals and understands that every dog has different needs and personalities. Matt makes sure my dogs needs are met by getting plenty of exercise, sticking to their routine, and giving them lots of affection. I have total peace of mind leaving my dog in Matt's care, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable petsitter.

I can’t recommend Matt enough! He has cared for my dog, Ellie, many times and she’s usually really nervous around new people. I was worried at first, but he was so patient with her and let her warm up at her own pace. Before long, she was completely comfortable with him, which honestly says a lot. Matt is reliable, caring, and you can tell he genuinely loves animals. He kept me updated, made sure Ellie was well taken care of, and treated her like she was his own. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was with someone I completely trust.

Matthew has been such a wonderful dog sitter and has watched our sweet Chloe many times. He’s very reliable, keeps us updated with photos and videos during her sessions, and is always prompt to respond. I have no doubts that she’s safe and well taken care of when she’s with Matt! Highly recommend his services for any pet needs 🩷
