Pet care experience

I will do anything for a dog.

I have loved dogs since I was a little kid. I don't currently have my own dog. I had one for about ten years during high school and college. I have been a dog sitter for former Purdue head football coach Hazell's dog for about five years. He has the sweetest dog. I have also been a dog sitter for other people involved with Purdue Athletics. I have also volunteered at the Almost Home Humane Society. I am willing to do almost anything for a dog. All you have to do, is let me know what you would like me to do for your dog, and you can rest assured it will be done as you requested. I believe our furry friends deserve the best!

He was able to take the job on very short notice. Matthew made all the vists as arranged. My fur babies were happy and healthy when I returned.

Matt is great with my large and energetic dog. I appreciated him stopping by to get to know her beforehand. He's very responsible and caring and seems to be able to calm Lottie down quickly.

Matt is great with dogs and cats. He's a real animal lover and took great care of our dog for years. He's very passionate and caring. He follows instructions very well regarding medications, feeding times/amounts, etc. Very trustworthy.

Matt is a very caring person who really enjoys and appreciates family pets. He has been caring for co-worker and neighbors' dogs and homes while they are away for nearly ten years. He is organized and trustworthy.

Diesel and Matt are good, good friends. Their bond gives us all the confidence we need to comfortably leave Diesell in Matt’s care. Matt has been loving up our dog, Diesel, for over four years and I am not sure who is happier about this, us or Diesel. We are thrilled because having Diesel be with Matt is the next best thing to being home with us and Diesel is always eager to see Matt. He is reliable and flexible and clearly Diesel is more than happy to jump out of the car and run up to the door excitedly ready to greet Matt. Frequently Matt is walking out the door to meet and greet Diesel! It is with the upmost confidence to recommend Matt to care for your dog - but be prepared to have to share your best friend’s love!

I will dogsit any breed. I would like to be able to see them, and their surroundings, as well as meet with their owners prior to sitting, at least for the first time.
