Pet care experience

Dog lover to the fullest

I have a flexible work schedule and would love to help out when needed. I enjoy going for walks and hikes with my dog on a regular basis. I have experience with every size and age of dog thanks to my work in a doggie daycare during college. I also have a medical background and live very close to the Banfield pet hospital in case of something unfortunate happening. If you want to know anything else I will answer any questions. Thanks for your time!

Matt was amazing for a 10 night stay with our 3 dogs. He offered to do as many meet and greets as I needed to feel comfortable and sent pictures. When one of the dogs ate part of our couch (overnight) he was quick to send us a photo and let us know, as well as block the area off so she couldn’t do it again. He responds quickly and is priced more than fairly for the service he is providing. Will definitely book again should the need arise. Thanks Matt!

Matt walks my dog twice a week. He is great with her and always reliable. Don’t know what we’d do without him!

Matthew is the BEST! Seriously, took the best care of my dog and spoiled her rotten. Sent me pics and was always quick to respond. Super flexible with drop off and pick up times and is a sweet, friendly guy on top of it all. Highly recommend. Next time I can afford a trip anywhere I'll be booking him for sure.

Matthew is very straight forward. Meets your expectations. Asks questions if clarification is needed. No fuss walker who knows that the last thing you need is to be worried about your pup! My dog loves his walks with Matthew. Was nervous after recent experiences, but he has made this one thing I don’t have to worry about during the day!

I currently have an open schedule to give as much attention to your pup as is needed. I enjoy going on hikes and would love a canine companion to join me.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a townhome with a fenced yard. Pets have free roam in my house other than my office. In a client's home I would treat it as respectfully as if it were my own.

I love going on walks and hikes with dogs as often as possible. I will play and mentally stimulate your dog during the day in any way they need.

I would like to know how your pup interacted with new people and dogs on walks and in general. Also, if there are any specific concerns I need to watch out for and can accommodate.
