Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Matt, great to meet you

I have 20 years of experience with dogs. I have trained my own dogs as well. I’ve learned a lot about behavior and reinforcement with dogs. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 6 years old. My schedule is very flexible. I can also assist in overnight sitting as well. I have a labradoodle that is friendly around other dogs. I’m open to any type of dog no matter the needs!

my labor doodle loves to play and wrestle so she can be annoying sometimes but she will get along just fine with other dogs that is not so much people because shes afraid of them.

I'm really pleased with Matthew. It's good to know that I now have a reliable sitter for Popeye my dog. Popeye loves him. Thank you Matthew for the exceptional service you offer. Id recommend Matthew to take care of their fur babies anytime. I'm very pleased.

Matt was an excellent sitter for a last minute weekend plan. He stopped over for a meet and greet and was timely with his arrivals, departure, and communication. He took excellent care of my two dogs as well as being respectful of my home. I would recommend him and will utilize his services again. Thanks so much!
