Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs and I'm great at reading dog behavior. I have experience with all ages of dogs from puppies to elderly animals. I am comfortable providing the dog with medical care ranging from administering medicine to providing shots for diabetic dogs. I will provide your dog with whatever kind of experience they are looking for. If they want to run all day we can do that or if they are more laid back I have no problem hanging around and petting them all day. I am currently unemployed and so your animals will receive my full attention all day.

Matt did a great job w Codee while I was out for the day. His dog was very nice and they got along great, took him on a hike and made him happy. Thanks!

I cannot say enough great things about Matthew. My 5 year old rescue is very timid towards anyone, especially men, and has severe separation anxiety. Matthew went out of his way to get the history of my dog's fears and what he loves to maker for a smoother transition into new care. When my dog got ecstatic to see Matthew (which was shockingly fast), I knew my dog was in great hands. Matthew is constantly exercising and bringing my dog to the park to socialize with other dogs. My dog has some aggression issues but Matthew is highly competent in reading my dog and other dogs' behaviors to avoid any altercations. My dog has never had any incidents while in Matthew's hands, which I can't say is true with other dog sitters I have used in the past. Overall, Matthew is a fantastic dog sitter and I would trust him with my dog any day.

Matt has frequently taken care of my pup Winnie, and it's like we never left. Between long walks, trips to the dog park, bringing new toys, and following any given directions to a T, I never have any concern leaving my dog with Matt for an extended amount of time--just concerned that she'll be sad when he leaves! He really will become fast friends with your dog, and they'll appreciate their freedom and being in a comfortable setting with him.
