Your Dog's New Best Friend

I’ve grown up with dogs for the past 8 years, so caring for them has always been a big part of my life. I started dog sitting for friends and family in high school and still regularly look after dogs today. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I understand that every dog has their own routine and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, playing, feeding, or just hanging out and keeping them company, I make sure they get plenty of attention and feel comfortable while their owners are away. I’m reliable, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs. My goal is to make sure you can leave knowing your dog is in good hands and getting the same care and attention they’re used to at home.

Matt is someone I would trust to provide safe, loving, and attentive care to any pet. He is responsible, compassionate, and genuinely cares about the well-being of animals, while also being friendly, respectful, and reliable. He treats every pet as if they were his own, and he goes above and beyond to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Matt is also an amazing human being who is kind, dependable, and someone you can truly count on.

Matt is one of the most caring and loving people I know, especially when it comes to dogs. He genuinely loves being around them and would make sure any dog in his care feels safe, comfortable, and loved. He loves being outdoors and would be more than happy to take dogs on long walks and give them plenty of exercise and attention. He is also incredibly attentive and would go above and beyond to make sure their needs are met, even getting up at any time to let them outside or care for them. I have no doubt that Matt would provide exceptional, loving care and treat every pet as if they were his own, with lots of cuddles and affection along the way.

Matt was absolutely fantastic with our dogs and we couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter. He went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were happy, comfortable, and well cared for, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in his hands. Matt was reliable, attentive, and kept us updated while we were away, and our dogs absolutely loved him! We would highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for an exceptional dog sitter. He truly treated our dogs like they were his own, and we wouldn’t hesitate to have him look after them again!

Schedule

I work as a teacher during the week, so I’m typically available after 4:00 PM Monday through Thursday and after 4:30 PM on Fridays. I’m home most Friday nights and usually have plenty of availability on weekends, which gives me lots of time for walks, playtime, and keeping your dog company. My schedule can change from time to time, so I’ll always keep my Rover availability updated so you know when I’m free!

Safety, trust & environment

I want every dog I care for to feel comfortable and at home. I have a fully fenced backyard with lots of space to run around, play, and get some fresh air. I also have an extra dog bed, toys, and treats available to help them settle in and enjoy their stay. When caring for a dog in their own home, I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding times, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I know every dog is different, so I’m always happy to adjust based on what makes them happiest and most comfortable.
