Travel RN with friendly GSD

Pet care experience

Hi I’m Matthew and I’m a travel nurse in town for a while looking for buddies to play with my pup. He’s very friendly! **Currently not available to sit at my house but happy to dogsit at your place! I can bring my dog or not - whatever is best. Thanks! I have plenty of experience around dogs, and love getting to know all the amazing pups that I sit. Being a dogsitter is the perfect job for me. As long as your dog doesn't mind watching me study then we will get along just fine! I'm looking forward to meeting you and your furry friend! . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

My dog didn’t want to come home with me, so I guess he had a great time.

My dog had a great time. He is very sleepy. Matthew seems to have a good house for keeping dogs. He also sent me pictures and videos of my pup during the stay!

Matthew was easy to work with and Sugar enjoyed her stay. Although Sugar (my dog) was a little afraid of Buck at first, they actually got along great and it was great socialization for Sugar!

Huck loved hanging out at Matthews! It was great to know he was having fun and in good hands while he wasn’t with us. We will definitely be asking Matthew to help us out next time we need a pet sitter for Huckleberry ??
