Information Matthew & Katherine S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know everything about your dogs specific needs and we will do our best to accommodate! We are aware that every dog has their own weird quirks or habits, we want to know them so our furry companions can have the best time possible.

A typical day

I try to keep the dog active and have plenty of time outside. I work in two dog parks a day between the several parks around me. If they like to be “chased” or play fetch we will gladly participate!

Matthew and Katherine were absolutely fantastic!! I was gone for the week of July 4th and they treated Mango to a true summer camp experience. He got to play in a little pool, run around the dog park, and watch the World Cup on their couch. Truly could not have asked for a better couple to have him stay with.

This was perfect, they knew how to take care of my skittish dog. She was safe, comfortable and never alone, which I really appreciated!

Matt was great! Quick to hop on a call and get all the info about my dog. He came promptly and followed all my care instructions to the letter. Lulu can be a stubborn bulldog and he was very patient and kind with her and took great care of my apt. Highly recommend Matt!!!

We are so grateful to have found Matt and Katherine to take care of our dog and cat while we were away. I’ve never had pet sitter that was so attentive and communicative with us, and it was a great relief to have them while we were away!!
