I currently work full time from home but I’m very active so I keep my dog active with me. We are up at 5am everyday going for runs/walks. On breaks we always get outside to enjoy the weather and allow him to use the bathroom if needed. After work if I’m not busy I love to take him to the dog park or on another walk around the neighborhood. So I’m available every weekday from 5am-8am and after work from 6pm-9pm

Safety, trust & environment

I have a big open yard that I have an electric fence for my dog to go out as he needs with or without me. When leaving the yard he gets his harness put on and a leash with poop bags. We walk on the sidewalk at all times. We stop and sit before looking to see if we can cross the road.

Information Matthew S. would like to know about your pet

If there is anything you think I should know about your dog before coming just let me know! I love all dogs from puppies to elderly dogs I’m very good with no matter the situation. I get asked by friends and family all the time to watch their dogs or to bring their dogs to my house to come play with my 100lb lab knowing how good I am with dogs!

A typical day

I walk/run with dogs. I play fetch. I take them to the dog park if wanted. I also try to teach them some tricks I have learned with my dog on how to listen to commands such as sit, stay, lay down, leave it, come here and so on.

Pet care experience

Hi neighbors! 🐾 My name is Matthew and I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have a 100lb Labrador who’s not just my pet—he’s my best buddy. We walk, hike, play, and explore every day, rain or shine! I understand how much your furry friends mean to you, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own—with love, patience, and plenty of exercise. Whether you need regular walks, help on busy days, or just want your pup to get some extra attention, I’m here to help! Reliable. Experienced. Dog-obsessed. Let’s chat! 🐶💬

Matthew was wonderful with Milo and Stella. They loved their walk. We will absolutely be using him again.
