Pet care experience
Friendly Cat and Dog Lover
I’ve always had dogs and cats in my life. Most recently, my partner and I expanded our family with two kitties, Gio & Jojo. During grad school, I also worked as a professional dog walker, walking 4-6 dogs on- and off-leash on hikes around local parks, and I generally averaged about 9-12 hikes per week. (I’ll keep yours on leash unless you and I are both comfortable letting your pup off leash in less-trafficed areas). I also dog sat for many of those clients, as well as several clients here.

Ratings and reviews
We dropped off our pup for a doggy daycare at the sitters home and it was a great fit. My pup laid on Matthew’s lap all day with small walks here and there. Matthew was attentive and very communicative.
Matthew is amazing! Very reliable, kind, communicative, and does incredible job balancing training & fun with our wild pup. Very grateful fro him and couldn’t recommend him enough! -DeVon, Analisse & Nala 🐾
Matthew is simply delightful. Incredibly kind, reliable, communicative, and considerate. Couldn’t ask for a better human to hangout with our four-legged human. -DeVon, Analisse & Nala 🐾
Matthew is the bomb! He came through for us in a mighty way! We were at the end of our rope! He requested a high level of direction which assured of how serious he was about the services he offers. He handled everything like a champ and left our pup happy and well taken care of! We couldn’t recommend him enough! Very grateful! DeVon, Analisse & Nala 🐾
Very pleasant, no hesitations.
Wonderful.

Schedule
I work from home with a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of availability to leave the house during the day and evening for walks and drop-ins. I may just have to work around some meetings. My partner Zachary is a grad student with a flexible schedule who also helps out with the pet sitting!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I can accommodate to whatever type of living space the pet is in. I will make sure they are given their food and water and medication if needed on schedule, they get out all of their energy during walks and playtime, their bathroom needs are taken care of, and any potential mess is cleaned up. I’ll also make sure your cat or dogs gets all the pets and cuddles they want!

A typical day
I love taking dogs on long walks around the parks in the city. I live in walking distance from Fort Tryon & Inwood Hill Parks and love hiking around there with the pups.
