Pet care experience

Matt took care of my pets—one dog and two cats—for about a week while my family and I were away, and I couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver. He provided daily updates and photos, which gave me real peace of mind knowing they were safe, happy, and well looked after. I’ve used other pet-sitting services before, but Matthew has been the best by far. His genuine love for animals really shows, and it’s clear he has plenty of experience caring for pets. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and compassionate pet sitter.

Matt is our first choice to care for our rabbits when we go away. He’s experienced with animals and does a great job. In fact, if Matt’s not available, I’m not comfortable going away. We own a large Rabbitry, so it’s not just a pet rabbit he’s caring for. He’s the only one I trust to give our animals the care they require. He’s been our go-to-person for the last 6 years. We recommend him highly!
