Information Matthew G. would like to know about your pet

My dogs are active but not overly so. They love other dogs, especially in off-leash settings. They are prone to heat exhaustion so I watch out for that to stay safe.

A typical day

Long and wonderful walks, usually at the off-leash dog park in Ajax, but I also like to mix things up with some diverse settings and environments!

Matt took excellent care of our dog while we were out of town. He had loads of fun at the off leash dog park. I would definitely recommend!

Absolutely outstanding!! Matt was flexible, helpful and kind. He was attentive with our girl and we could be away with a lot of peace of mind. Will absolutely rebook

He's reliable, my dogs love him and look forward to his arrival, and I have peace of mind while I'm at work. Who can put a price on peace of mind? Matt can and it's worth every penny!
