Availability
I work remotely, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Although I occasionally have local meetings or events, I only accept pet‑sitting commitments when I can remain home and fully available. Your pet’s comfort and safety always take priority in my schedule.

Safety, trust & environment
My home is a secured condo with controlled access, providing a safe and quiet environment for visiting pets. There are no restrictions on having or hosting pets in my building, making it an ideal space for temporary care. Inside, there is ample room for pets to relax comfortably, and the surrounding area includes low‑traffic trails perfect for calm, consistent walks. After years of taking my own dogs on multiple daily outings, I’m very familiar with all nearby walking routes and designated potty areas, ensuring a safe, predictable, and well‑managed routine for any pet in my care.

Pet care experience
I cared for my two deaf dogs for 11 years and supported them through the medical challenges of cancer before losing them this past year. I’ve had dogs and cats throughout my life, and I’m experienced with pets who have disabilities or complex care needs. Recently, I’ve also cared for a working canine, another deaf dog, and a cat, giving me a broad understanding of different temperaments and routines. While I’m not ready for another full‑time pet, I’m committed to providing attentive, reliable, and positive care for yours.
Reviews

Jason was fantastic with our pup! He shared photos and updates throughout the day and was very friendly. We appreciate the care he gave our fur baby, and we definitely trust him with Obi anytime! We highly recommend him!

Matt was great with my Petunia! I will definitely be having him take care of her again.

Matt did a great job with Loki. It sounded like she had a nice time and was comfortable. Matt did a great job communicating and sending pictures of Loki. He kept her busy with walks and helped keep her routine while I was gone. I would definitely use Matt's services again!

Matthew did a great job! He communicated clearly, sent pictures and updates, and took excellent care of Arthur. He got him tons of exercise and made sure he was comfortable at all times. Arthur came home happy and healthy.
