Reliable and Caring Pet Sitter

I don’t have professional pet-sitting experience, but I do have experience taking care of my own pets. I have a standard poodle and a cat, so I’m used to feeding, walking, playing, cleaning up after them, and making sure they’re happy and comfortable. I’m patient and attentive, and I know every pet has their own personality and routine & I would love the opportunity to take care of your pets and give them plenty of attention while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I always make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable environment and that they have everything they need. I’ll follow the owner’s instructions and keep up with their normal feeding, walking, and bathroom routine. I’m also careful about doors, gates, and anything they could get into, and I’ll keep the owner updated while they’re away.

Matthew is incredibly sweet and caring with fur babies! He is a wonderful dad to his pets and always goes the extra mile to ensure that they are safe, healthy and happy. He is patient, loving and has such a kind heart. Matthew is extremely reliable and trustworthy.

Matt is a very good pet owner him self. He takes care of the animals as if they were his own kids. He spends more time with his Jett than with anyone.

Matthew took care of my lab Nala, and my two cats, Mikasa & Levi. He was absolutely great! He was super patient with them, my cats were very skittish at first but they grew to become very comfortable with him, they love him so much now. As for Nala, she’s super hyper, friendly and can be well A LOT! He was so helpful, he took Nala out for her walks at the times I told him I usually walk her. He always made sure to feed them at the same times and the exact amounts that I asked him to. He was reliable, caring, and treated my pets like they were his own. I really appreciated the updates, it was nice to know my fur babies were happy and safe. I would absolutely recommend Matthew to anyone & everyone!

We use Matthew everytime we go on vacation. My dogs love him and get super excited when he comes over. Its like they know mommy and Daddy are leaving and they get to hang out with Matthew. We've never had any issue with him whatsoever house sitting or dog sitting. Its such a relief to know our babies (2 large rescues and a bossy little fella) are taken care of. Its one less worry while we are gone.

Schedule

I have a pretty flexible schedule, so I’m able to work pet care into my daily routine. I can usually be available for walks, check ins, feeding, and spending time with pets throughout the day. I’m also good at sticking to a pet’s normal routine and making sure they get the attention they need.
