I’d love to take care of your pets!

Pet care experience

I raised a rescue Irish wolfhound who is 125 lbs and is turning 13 years old this year. I also have a beautiful 3 legged cat named Frannie. What she lacks in legs, she makes up in personality. I’ve been petsitting since when I was able to drive. I watched many peoples houses from church before deciding to join rover.

Matthew was great and accommodating, he was great with my two dogs and two cats. One of my dogs can be a handful and he took care of her no problem. I was able to have a great trip and not have to worry about my fur kids. I will definitely reach back out to Matthew for future trips.

Matthew was great! He really took care of the pets well and gave our pup love and snuggles while we were away. We will definitely use Matthew again.
