Pet care experience

Experience, passion, and care!

I've been working professionally in the pet industry for 8 years now. My experience has been working at pet resorts with dogs of all different temperaments, sizes, ages, and energy levels. I am very knowledgeable about dog care including grooming, dog behavior & training, and even dietary needs. For my drop in visits I'll spend time with your pup taking them out for a bathroom break and then based on their personality I'll give them attention in the form of playing, cuddles, or anything else you would like me to do with them while I'm there. I'm pretty flexible. For walks that I take your pups on, we'll walk around the neighborhood; I'll let them enjoy the smells of the neighborhood while we walk and I'll even bring a portable bowl of water for them with filtered water for the walk if youd like. Any other special instructions just let me know!

Safety, trust & environment

I'll stick to your instructions to the letter and treat your animals like they're my own. I keep a regular schedule with my animals and make sure there is plenty of entertainment and comfort around for them, I'll do the same for yours too. I'll bring my years of experience to your home and pet, so you know you're getting the best care available.

Matthew is amazing as always! He’s the best at taking care of our fur babies when we are gone. Will always recommend him to others.

Matthew did a fantastic job watching our cats. He gave them lots of love and care, and I think our cats like him more than us now. He also was very tidy in our home. I'll definitely seek out Matt's help again next time we need a cat sitter.

Matt was great with our pets. Our dog is a rescue who at first fears new people. She liked Matt right away. He took good care of her and our cats too. We needed him over a holiday and he was kind to make time for our four leggeds. Would want his service again!!

As much information as possible is always preferred. Things like: their temperament, how they behave around other dogs, their energy level, usual playtime activites, special dietary needs, allergies, health issues, and whatever else you think I should know.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
