Highlights
Pet care experience
Longtime Animal Lover!
I've had pets most of my life, more recently exclusively cats. My cats wouldn't get along with dogs and I miss being around them, so I'm looking to scratch that itch by getting involved with dog walking and in-home care. I have plenty of experience handling both young and old pets, administering medications, and providing round-the-clock care for both pets and people during multiple serious health crises.

Ratings and reviews
Matt is fantastic with animals. He enjoys and respects their quirks and different personalities. Matt has good instincts and a natural authority that allows cats and dogs to trust him. He knows when to leave the pet alone and when to engage with them, whether he is petting them, playing with them, or administering medication to them. Matt has looked after my cats while I have traveled on several occasions--these are cats who require daily medication and are prone to behavioral difficulties--and Matt has done a terrific job. On one occasion, one of my cats got very sick while I was gone and Matt was great about keeping in contact and dealing with the emergency. He gave super detailed updates, asked good questions, and went to pick up the required medication. I have complete trust in him and would gladly have him care for my pets any time.
