Ya Local Tremont Dog Guy

Hello 👋 Thank you for checking out my profile. My name is Matt. My partner Kim and I have been taking care of dogs and cats on Rover for five years now. We have 2 dogs of our own that we love very much named Baxter and Archie. We will take care of your pup like our own, because every pup deserves a lot of love. I offer boarding services for dogs in the Greater Cleveland Area and local drop-in/walking services for any kind of pet in Tremont.

Matt was great with Chasey, she was so happy with him and his doggos! They made her feel right at home! I really appreciated the photo updates and communication throughout the weekend. We will definitely be coming back in the future!

Matt did a great job watching my hyper husky and kept me up to date everyday on how she was doing.

Matt was very responsive and provided excellent updates while our dog stayed with him. They also went for frequent walks and included pictures throughout the weekend. We will book again with Matt!

Safety, trust & environment

For boardings: I offer lots of walks, lots of treats, and a loving home. Please let me know if there is something I can do to customize my care for your pooches safety and comfort. For Walks/Drop-Ins: I take photos and send a little story about how your pups day/walk went. Your pets health and safety is always my number one priority. I prefer spending time with them indoors during extreme cold or heat.

Pets

A typical day

I like to mix things up, keeping them both mentally and physically stimulated. Lots of sniffs, lots of walking. We can go on small hikes or play in the backyard too.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Matthew can host up to 2 pets per night
Lastly, for boardings I prefer to start out with an initial meet & greet. Our dog Archie is a herder and barks a lot with no bite, so 10 minutes of walking together helps him to settle while I get to know you and your dog/s. For walks/drop-ins we can do a quick phone call to go over the basics, or meet in person, whatever works best for you.
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.
