Matthew took good care of Willow. Big yard and pup for company, Willow had alot of running room. I'll keep his info for future visits. Thanks, Matthew!

Max loves going here! They treat him like their own dog and I know he is well taken care of.

Doggy Day Care • Dec 31, 2025

Highly recommend Matthew as a Rover daycare option! He watched my 7 month old GSD for a few days in December. He was so flexible, great with communication, and my pup always came home from his house completely exhausted. He has a huge fenced in yard and does a great job letting the dogs play. I would definitely use him again for services!

Well Matt was great. He took great care of my puppy and gave her the best environment to have her little 2 day vaca. Super glad I went with him.

I’ve known Matthew for years and have seen how kind, patient, and attentive he is with dogs. He takes excellent care of his own foxhound and treats every dog like family. You can always trust that pets in his care are safe, happy, and well-exercised.

A typical day

A typical day with your dog will be a morning neighborhood walk and then playing with our dog all day. We have a doggy door so free ins and outs all day unless it's muddy, then we'll walk a few times a day. A typical day without your dog is we walk our foxhound at the park at 6 AM, get home and doggy play from 6:30-7, then she sleeps during the day, then walks and plays again in the evening.

Our foxhound is ~2 years old and loves to play, so ideally your dog will want to play with her. If your dog is playful, it should be a great match.
