Pet care experience
No Dog Too Big or Small
For more than 8 years, I've been the go-to person for family and friends to call in times they needed someone to watch their dogs while they are away. I've taken care of young dogs, old dogs, small and large dogs. I've done everything from staying the night to feeding them according to specific requests, walking the dogs, bathing them when needed. I've always managed to develop a bond with each dog I've taken care of, and I think this is largely due to my approach of being patient, intuitive, and friendly to establish trust. I'm happy to now be extending my services to more families who are in search of someone who is friendly, follows instructions, and is reliable.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
All dogs are different and as such sometimes the time it takes to develop trust between me and your pets will vary. Either way I will always treat your pets as though they are family.
Ratings and reviews
As always did amazing, even got our mail and took off the sheets for us! Anytime Matt is available we are so happy to have him!
Matt is amazing with our senior dog and has watched her multiple times. He ensures the house is just as we left it, things are cleaned up, sends daily updates, and leaves any notes needed. Highly recommend!
Matthew was everything one can hope for - and more. He "house sat" and took care of three of our "big boys" - one lab and two goldens. He seems to have a natural affinity for the boys and they were comfortable with him. We have a large back area and he played "fetch" with them every day. When one of the boys had an episode - upset stomach - Matthew went beyond the call of duty, providing comfort to him and communicating with us regularly. We will definitely request his services again in the future.
We booked Matthew for the first time and he was amazing. He tended to out three basset hounds like he was family. Very communicative so we were always at ease. Thank you Matthew
Matthew is just “The Best”! He stayed with our Bella for 14 days while we vacationed and she was so happy with all the attention and love he gave her. He provided daily updates and pictures to us and quickly became her best friend.
Great job as always, dogs seem quite happy! thanks for dealing with the extra stuff in the house like mail, packages, etc.
