Can I pet that dog???

Pet care experience

I am an experienced dog owner. I have had many dogs in my house hold since I was a child: Greyhound, Pitbull, Pomeranian, Boxer, German Shepherd, Border Collie, Italian Greyhound, Black Lab. I currently have a 100 pound German Shepherd and a 16 pound Italian Greyhound in my home. I also have many friends with dogs, large and small breed, that have entrusted me on numerous occasions with their pets. I also have experience with cats. We always had at least one cat when I was younger however I do not own any cats today.

Matthew was great! My dog can be challenging, he handled it with no problem, kept me updates w/pics, and alleviated all troubles! Easy 5 Stars!

Matt is great with Olive. They go out and play in the yard. He runs Olive so that she gets a great nap before I get home from work. So glad I found Matt. Olive is a happier puppy! I will continue to book Matt the days I am in the office

Matt has been great to my girls! I have a very particular 9 year old dachshund and a crazy 6 month old lab puppy and they both warmed up to him instantly. I work long hours and Matt gets them out for their walks and spends time playing with them on bad weather days. Would definitely recommend and will be booking again in the future!

Information Matthew G. would like to know about your pet

I do not have any preferences on breeds or temperaments. I am very good with dogs and am willing to take the time for them to warm up to me before I will be handling them on my own.

A typical day

If they are friendly with other dogs and you are comfortable I could bring my dog over to play or bring your dog to my house for a few hours. I would take them to the beach or the lake or for a walk on some trails or around the neighborhood.
