Here to treat your dog like family

Pet care experience

Hello! After attending Boston University, I've found myself in Durham pursuing an array of coursework for the spring. I have lived with 2 Boxers and a French bulldog throughout my life. I understand the needs of animals, and their treatment is of utmost importance. Growing up my parents instilled a level of respect for animals, such as human treatment. Easily reachable and happy to tailor your dog's stay to their needs and your preferences. I live in a super safe neighborhood right off of Duke campus where I'm out running twice a day. If you need someone you can trust, I'm your guy. I look forward to speaking with you.

Matthew took great care of The Detective today. Went on a real adventure. Made sure he was well hydrated too. Would recommend Matthew’s services to all.

Sherlock was in amazing hands. Matthew took him waking outside of the neighborhood and Sherlock sure enjoyed the new sights and smells. You’ve got a repeat customer on your hands

As Matthew’s neighbor for ~20 years while we were growing up, I can certainly attest to his love of animals. Both of our families have always had dogs and Matthew has taken care of our dogs more times than I can count, whenever we’ve gone out of town. He is a very kind, responsible and loving care taker. He is a fun loving guy that would have a blast with anyone’s pets (no matter the breed) while they were away. I can’t recommend him enough as a dog sitter.

Matthew has been a friend of mine for 2+ years. We met in class at Boston University and our friendship started as him helping me understand the material in our course. Since then he's become one of my closest, most reliable and trustworthy friends. He's honest, extremely responsible and works hard in all that he does. Oh, and he's absolutely hilarious.
