Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. Since I’ll mainly be walking and house sitting, I make sure pets stay comfortable in their own environment and stick to their usual routines. On walks, I’m attentive and cautious, keeping a close eye on surroundings and making sure leashes are secure. At home, I respect your space while keeping it clean and safe for your pets. Whether it’s making sure doors and gates are secure or following feeding and medication instructions exactly, I treat every detail with care so you can feel confident while you’re away.

Information Matthew P. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know of any illnesses, disabilities, allergies, etc, so I can accommodate appropriately. I am open to pets of any type, I would just like to know beforehand!

A typical day

We will play games, explore the neighborhood, and any other stimulating activity your animal is fond of! I'm nor rigid in my routine and will switch it up for any client and their pets!

Reliable and personable Pet Care

Pet care experience

I always grew up in households with pets. I love every animal from dogs to cats to birds. I have five years of professional experience in animal care through boarding and training facilities. I am knowledgeable in animal behaviors, illnesses, and medications. I have experience with every type of dog, including seniors, sick and untrained. I pride myself on being able to form relationships with even the most standoffish pets. If you need help with your furry pal or even just someone to entertain them for a few hours, I'm your guy!

Matthew is the best! He takes good care of our pups while we’re away, and he goes the extra mile by watering the garden and keeping an eye on our silly chickens

Matthew did a great job with our pups, like always! On time, shared pics, and cares about our crazy dogs like they’re his own!

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker for Bud. Our 5-year-old hound is a pretty strong, energetic guy, so he’s not always the easiest to handle. For three weeks, when we were under the weather, Matthew quickly responded to our request. He truly saved the day. Bud absolutely looked forward to seeing Matthew every day. He had just the right style and energy to work with a bouncy, hyper dog and it was clear he cared. Matthew was dependable, showed up exactly on time, and was consistently wonderful. We’re so thankful for Matthew’s help and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.

So at the last minute I reached out to Matthew about walking my dog a couple times a week and he quickly reached out to me and set up a meet and greet the same week. The meet and greet went well and the next day he arrived for Ruger's walk with no issues. Ruger returned happy and exhausted🙌🏾😂 Thanks Matthew! See ya soon🐕
