Your Fluffy Friend's Guardian

Pet care experience

I am in medical school which sometimes means some days I may need to be on campus for extended periods of time to tutor, do research, go to the anatomy lab, attend class, and or take a test. This may take anywhere from 4-8 hours but only 1-2 times a week. I am trying to stick close to home and or school so I'm available in the Parker, Stapleton, Aurora, and Centennial areas. If that is not an issue, please continue reading! I have always been an animal lover as they truly are a man's best friend. Although I don't own my own dog, I want to be able to treat your dog as if it were my own. I am a kind-hearted, playful guy who is willing to give your dog the walks, love, and snuggles that they may need. I have dog-sat multiple dogs, multiple times in the past. The owners can vouch for me as they were pleased with my ability to keep their home and their fluffy friend safe and happy. I have worked with dogs that need to take daily medication for disease and had a cat with diabetes that needed injections, so if your fluffy friend needs special care I am able to provide those services as well. I get along with all different types of dogs and/or cats and am willing to adapt to fit the unique needs and personalities of your pets. Please contact me if you have any further questions about me! Thank you!

Matthew was awesome. We are so glad that we found him! We have never used an in-home dog sitter before so I was worried about finding someone we could trust. Our dog can be a little picky about who she warms up to, and Matthew was great about coming over a few times to get to know her before our trip. The morning after we got home, our dog went looking for Matthew when she woke up. I think it's safe to say she definitely loves him! He kept our house clean and sent us pictures the whole time. We will for sure use him again!

Matthew is fantastic. We had no worries leaving our dog with him again. We received updates on how she was doing and knew he was taking great care of our dog and home. We highly recommend him!

Matt took great care of our dog for two weeks! We really appreciate it and would recommend him to others.

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure to respect all house rules and also give dogs lots of love and attention. I always double check that doors and access points are locked when I leave and make sure if I leave a dog gets a treat so it’s less likely to try and explore the neighborhood. Always stop and look before crossing streets and ask dogs to sit when we do stop before crossing.

Information Matthew M. would like to know about your pet

I have worked with dogs of all sizes, ability, breed, and temperament and will adjust to their needs accordingly. If a dog is more aggressive to new people we should meet at least 3 times before the stay so we can familiarize with each other.

A typical day

We will go for walks/runs, play fetch and play tug of war or any other activities they usually like. I’m good with walks of any lengths and even hikes. Just let me know!
