Safety, trust & environment
I currently live in a spacious open-plan two-bedroom flat in a pet-friendly neighbourhood, where many of our neighbour’s are pet owners themselves. We always consider boarding pets on a case by case basis , and recommend an introduction before final booking confirmation . I have my own car, so I’m able to travel easily around Edinburgh and nearby areas. I always appreciate receiving a detailed list of your pet’s routine, habits, and care requirements, as building trust and maintaining consistency is very important to me. My goal is to keep your pet’s routine and quality of life as normal and stress free as possible while you’re away. My service includes regular updates, photos, and honest communication throughout the sitting period, so you can feel reassured your pet is happy and well cared for. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, cleaning, medication, or simply companionship, I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s individual needs with care and attention.

Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Matt. I’ve been surrounded by pets my entire life, and I can’t imagine life without caring for animals. From fish and hamsters to dogs and cats, looking after pets has always been a big part of who I am. Hiccup, my 2.5kg diva Yorkie, keeps me busy with daily walks, endless affection, and plenty of personality! She has full access to the couches and beds because, pets are family and I absolutely adore her. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide range of breeds, including Jack Russells, Great Danes, Labradors, Scottish Terriers, and a lovely senior German Shepherd. I’m equally comfortable caring for cats too, whether that means litter tray cleaning, feeding routines, playtime, or simply giving them the calm attention and affection they need. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. If you provide me with a list of what makes your pet happy and comfortable, I’ll always do my very best to care for them with patience, attention, and genuine love.

Reviews
I've just picked my dog up from Mathew after her 5 night stay. It was my first time using Matthew and I totally would again. He was really patient with all my questions before booking. Communication was great while I was away, pictures, funny stories and even a video. All of this meant I didn't worry at all. I would absolutely recommend Matthew and his gorgeous wee dog to anyone. Thank you Matthew and Hiccup!!
Matthew was great with Marty. We know he can be a bit barky with new people and situations, but Matthew was unphased and knew how to keep him calm. From the photos it looked like Marty made himself very much at home and he was a happy boy when I collected him in the morning.
Calm and thoughtful. Maya was very well looked after. And communication was great.
Hugo boarded with Matt for a week while we were on holiday. Matt provided regular feedback on how Hugo was getting on and integrated him into his routine really well. Hugo seemed to really enjoy his stay and clearly bonded very well with Matt. Together they went on long walks, runs and generally hanging out together. I can't thank Matt enough for proving a great home to our dog!
