I'm Matt and I come from a big family of dog lovers, and owners. I, personally, have a little beagle named Gracie. I, personally, think she stands as the best testimonial I can offer about my pet care skills. We've spent a ton of time together out in the local parks (the ones off Tryon are our favorites). In that time, I've learned that tired dogs are happy dogs! Any dog that will come stay with us can look forward to heavy doses of park time. And, if your dog isn't a social butterfly or prefers 1-on-1 attention, my neighborhood affords a ton of space for walking/running. I fancy myself to be "in shape," (fingers crossed) so I'm more than willing to work dogs at higher than typical intensity levels, if requested. We can make a plan/schedule, please ask for further info. I have experience driving professionally. I can provide records of clean driving history, for added piece of mind. My residence is luckily in an extremely safe place and isolated location that affords minimal outside disturbances, other than landscaping on Wednesdays. So if your little pup is ever anxious, they will be able to rest easy!
