Pet care experience

Pawsitively Perfect Pet Watcher

I grew up having 3 cats (Kibby, TJ, and Mittens), 2 guinea pigs (Missy and Muffin), 2 dogs (Jingles and Sonny) and 1 turtle (Nelson). It was my sole responsibility to walk my two dogs before and after school, feed all 8 animals, and clean their litter/homes. Although I do not own an animal now, I am reliable and I have a genuine love for animals.

Safety, trust & environment

As a walker and sitter, I am able to provide a range of services, including feeding, walking, playing with, and administering medication to pets. When caring for pets, I follow specific instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding schedules, walking routes, and any other special needs or requests. It is also my responsibility for maintaining the cleanliness and safety of the home. I provide clear communication to the owners while away and ample attention to the pet to ensure they receive the best possible care.

Trusted him for multiple trips and he’s great. My cat seems to really enjoy him and he’s incredibly consistent with check ins and instructions.

I have used Matthew a few times. Mostly for my cat. Once on a last minute request for a dog. He is always prompt and reliable and caring for my pets. Thanks Matt !

Matthew took great care of Midge while we were away on our honeymoon! He sent timely updates and pictures, and clearly spent time cuddling with her! Would definitely rebook.

This was my 3rd time booking Matthew. He was available on short notice and did a great Joan talking care of Lucy. Will definitely book again!

Matthew is amazing! Our cat, who has lately become pretty shy, got along great with him! A thousand percent recommend!

I currently work remotely full time. I take a few walks during my day (during the morning, afternoon and evening) and I would love a pal to join! Due to my remote schedule, I have a lot of flexibility when it comes to animal care.
