Giving dogs the love they deserve!

Pet care experience

I’ve always been able to quickly earn a dog’s trust. Whether it’s my first dog at age 10, a neighbor’s dog, or my wife’s family dogs, I show a genuine love for dogs and they return it to me.

Matt was an excellent sitter for my dog, Mac! They seemed to have a great time together while I was on vacation for nearly a week. I received daily updates of their adventures together. So glad Matt had a great time with Mac, whose puppy energy can be a lot to handle!

Matthew was great! I highly recommend. He was extremely responsive and flexible. He and his sweet pup Willie were great with my dog JJ. He sent pictures and update so we could see how JJ was doing while we were away. I would definitely leave her with Matthew again.

This was the first time I had left my dog Taco in anybody's care, and I was very concerned because, not going to lie, he is quite spoiled. Mathew did a great job with Taco. He and his dog Willie were very caring and patient with him (he can be a little grumpy sometimes). He was well fed and got great care. Matthew kept me informed about his progress every day and sent me pictures of him that were great to have as me and my wife missed him a lot. I will not hesitate to book Matthew again in the future.

Information Matthew D. would like to know about your pet

I need to know how your dog interacts with other dogs, particularly large dogs. It would also be helpful to know your dog’s eating behavior.

A typical day

I like taking them on walks by the Hudson River. There’s plenty of toys to play with at the apartment, from tennis balls, squeaky toys, and tug-of-war ropes.
