Matthew was excellent, flexible, and communicative throughout the whole process. He treated my pup with respect and care and provided updates everyday. I will definitely be booking with him again in the future!

Matthew was amazing with Juna and sent lots of photos and updates. She looked like she had such a good time when we picked her up. He was also very understanding and flexible when we had to pick her up a little later than discussed. Will book again!

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.
