Lover of all animals!

Pet care experience

I have grown up with pets my entire life. I am a very easy going person who wants nothing more than to give your pet the care they deserve. I have also worked at an animal hospital for 2 years and have learned a lot from my mom who has worked at one for 30+ years. I have a spayed pit bull/lab mix named Skadi who is the sweetest girl and gets a long with all dogs. I also have a fenced in side yard as well as a dog park right down the road from my house.

Matthew did a wonderful job with my big dog! She was a Covid puppy and didn't get to go many places for her first 2 years, and only met family members' pets. I'll bet next time Matthew gets her she won't resist following him and will jump happily in his vehicle!

I needed a last minute sitter for my dog Bambam and found Matthew. He was extremely flexible and responsive. Bambam stayed a few nights with Matthew. He kept me updated and sent photos every day. I would recommend Matthew to friends and family, and will most definitely rebook with him again!

I highly recommend Matt as your Rover, he is fantastic and will always be my primary petsitter! He has watched my dog, Zoey, numerous times and has treated her like his own. Matt is responsive and personable, coming through for me on last minute work trips. His care provides a piece of mind knowing that my dog is safe and enjoying her time!

I have known Matthew is entire life. We worked together at an Animal Hospital in Buffalo. He always showed compassion towards the animals and was a dedicated care taker. He is friendly and easy to get along with. I have never used him for pet sitting as I live in Buffalo and he is currently in the Army stationed in Anchorage. I would have no hesitation trusting Matt with my pets. He is a caring, responsible and mature young man.
