Pet care experience

My house will be a fabulous getaway

Dogs have always responded with ease to me. I grew up with dogs. I watch my neighbor's dog for several years. My girlfriend's dogs love me. I have a nice house and yard for any size dog. My neighborhood is very pet friendly with a lovely greenbelt for walks. Your dog will have a blast staying with me. And you can relax on your vacation. Your dog will get plenty of loving as they would at home. I will send you pictures of your pet so you can see just what a great time they're having staying with me. I have very flexible work hours. I primarily work from home. This way your pet isn't alone for any long period of time. I've had very successful stays with my clients up to now.

Matthew was excellent. We had a meet-up day to ensure that the dogs would be comfortable in his home and a good fit. He invited me in, showed me around, and made me feel at ease. I received daily updates and I felt the dogs were in good hands. I will gladly book with Matthew again.

This was the first time we used Matt. And he was GREAT. He took great care of our dog and sent us plenty of pictures. And we could see how comfortable our dog was with Matt!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a decent size, fully fenced in backyard for your dog to get plenty of exercise. I work remotely so they will never feel alone for too long.

A typical day

I have a beautiful and clean greenbelt at the end of my cul-de-sac. To walk from one end to the other and back to my street is roughly a good 1/2 mile. So a nice stretch of your pup's legs. That's not including a good size back yard for exercise too.

I realize my profile states I have a cat. I'm unable to remove that statement. I apologize for the confusion but it's a misrepresented part of my profile.
