Taking care of pets is a regular part of my daily and weekly routine. Working from home as an online marketer gives me the flexibility to devote plenty of time and attention to your beloved furry friends. I make it a point to take breaks throughout the day for walks and playtime, making sure your pet gets the exercise and stimulation they need. Whether it's a daily routine or occasional care, I can adjust to different schedules and provide consistent care for your pets. You can trust that your pet's well-being is always on my mind, as I genuinely love and prioritize their happiness.

Safety, trust & environment

Keeping pets safe, earning trust, and creating a cozy environment are my top priorities, whether it's in my home or yours. In my place, I make sure harmful stuff is out of their reach, and we've got a big grassy area nearby for playtime. Regular walks and exercise keep pets happy and healthy. When I'm at your place, I follow your instructions to keep things familiar and secure. I believe in open communication with pet owners, keeping you updated and giving you peace of mind. Building a strong bond and ensuring pets feel safe, comfy, and joyful is what I'm all about.

Information Matthew H. would like to know about your pet

Before taking care of a dog, it's important to know some key information. Understanding their behavior, such as any anxieties or aggression, helps me create a comfortable environment. I also need to know about their dietary needs, allergies, and any medications they require. Learning their exercise routine, favorite activities, and training commands allows me to provide enjoyable experiences. By knowing these details in advance, I can ensure the best care and a positive experience for the dog in my care.

A typical day

A typical day with the pets I care for is filled with fun activities. We start with a leisurely walk outdoors. Throughout the day, we play games like chasing a ball or engaging in interactive play. I customize activities based on each pet's energy and preferences, ensuring they have a great time. If the weather is nice, we might go to a nearby park or explore new trails together. Every day is about creating a loving and joyful experience for the pets in my care.

Matthew's Paw-some Pet Care: Your Pet's New Happy

Pet care experience

I love animals and have cared for them throughout my life. Whether it's pet-sitting for friends or house-sitting for family friends with pets, I have plenty of experience and a genuine love for all furry companions. My top priorities are clear communication and creating a safe, loving environment for your pets. Your pet will never be alone for more than an hour, and I'll provide extra attention and support to nervous dogs. I enjoy being outdoors and ensuring your pet gets at least 30 minutes of daily walks for exercise. For high-energy dogs, I'm happy to engage them in fun activities and games. Your pet's well-being and happiness mean everything to me, and I can't wait to meet them and provide the best care possible!

I can highly recommend Matthew to look after your furry friends. Matthew took excellent care of our little toy pudel and we always felt in really good hands. She even waited at the door for him to come back after she returned home. We hope to book Matthew again soon!

Emilio had a lovely time! Matthew was super responsive and accommodating to Emilio’s needs, gave him a good play time outdoors as well as plenty of relaxing couch cuddles. Would gladly book him again! 🙂‍↕️

We were very happy to have Matthew house-sit for our Samoyed, Bella! As many Samoyed owners know, Bella is a dog with an abundance of enthusiasm and she can be quite the energetic whirlwind, especially when meeting new people! We truly appreciated Matthew's willingness to meet Bella twice beforehand. This gave Bella the chance to get to know him, and after her initial burst of excitement (which can last a good ten minutes!), she settled down calmly. Matthew was really patient and understanding with Bella's nature. He was kind and gentle with her, and we received just the right amount of updates, which put our minds completely at ease while we were away. Communication was excellent throughout, making the entire experience pretty smooth.
