Enthusiastic Dog Lover

Pet care experience

I am a young professional living in downtown Indy, right off of Mass Ave. My family had a golden retriever for 15 years and I have lots of experience with dogs. I can and would be happy to work with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I work from home full-time which provides me flexibility to do drop ins and walks during the days, as well as sit dogs at my apartment. With my work schedule, during business hours I will have 30 - 45 minute windows, so if the location is not close to where I live I may not be available. Once again, that is only during typical business hours, before or after work and on weekends I am happy to go wherever. I have a very flexible schedule and am available for both sitting and walking. I also have experience giving pets medication. Please let me know if you have any questions.

For as long as I have known Matt, which is over a decade, he has been a responsible and caring dog owner. If I needed someone to take care of my dog, he would be the first person I would call.

Information Matthew G. would like to know about your pet

The information I’d like to know ahead of time is how your pet socializes with other pets, humans, and does put in public. Also if they prefer long or short walks and other information you think I would need to know.

A typical day

When watching pets, I enjoy both long and short walks, playing fetch, playing with other toys and just spending quality time with them. Walking out in nature is a hobby as well and would love to take you pup to a park or nature area to walk as well.
