Information Matthew E. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know how energetic they are, what they enjoy doing during the day and in the evening, and how they are with kids and other dogs.

A typical day

I live in a quiet neighborhood in Leander that is great for long walks. Depending on the weather, there is a dog park in Cedar Park that my own dog enjoys quite a bit.

I’m so grateful to Matthew and his family for taking such great care of my fur baby on short notice. My baby was content and not at all stressed when I picked him up. Great care!!

I was hesitant to leave my dog with a stranger, but Mathew was great! Highly recommend him! Unfortunately, I was out of the country so I didn’t see the pictures that Mathew sent me daily until I got home. My dog dog was healthy and happy when I picked him up.

Matt was super easy to work with and sent routine updates with pictures! He showed that he enjoys taking care of dogs, and we will be seeking him out first next time our husky needs a hotel!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
