Information Matthew M. would like to know about your pet

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.

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.

My house will be a fabulous getaway

Pet care experience

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.

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.
