I understand dogs

Pet care experience

I connect with animals in general, but I've always had a special connection with dogs. I've always understood them and love to get down on the floor and play with any pet I see (but especially my dog!)

Matt is truly the best! I recently hired Matt to care for my 2 dogs (Golden Doodle and Duck Tolling Retriever) and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless, professional, and most importantly, my pets were in great hands. I love the fact that I never had to worry while on vacation. Matt walked the dogs daily and spent adequate time with them each day. I came home to some happy dogs! It's clear that he truly cares about animals and I highly recommend him.

Matt is a caring and empathetic dog owner, who has cared for our dog on multiple occasions. From energetic puppies to older dogs with higher needs, Matt has experience with dogs across a range of ages and temperaments. He is conscientious and trustworthy, and I would recommend him enthusiastically to care for your dog(s) as well!

I've known Matthew for 15 years and he has proven himself honest, reliable and trustworthy. He is prompt and on time and always follows through on his intentions. He is friendly, dependable and a loving animal caregiver.

5 STAR SITTER! Matthew is a dog lover, dog whisperer, dog trainer. I can't say enough great things about Matthew! I feel completely comfortable leaving my golden retriever in his care. He provides updates, photos, and is responsive to messages. My dog comes home happy and clearly well loved. It's difficult leaving your pet with someone new, but Matthew treats your pet as his own. He clearly understands dog behavior and takes the time to make each dog feel at home. I will definitely continue to use his services!
