Pet care experience

Don’t feel guilty about leaving

*hablo español, pero no hablo con fluidez jaja* I currently work from home in a very pet friendly neighborhood. I’ve grown up with animals my entire life in a household with multiple cats and dogs not to mention the occasional aquatic pet. My backyard is grass and has 4 foot high gates all around. The backyard leads into a Greenway, which is a great area for your pet and I to get some exercise in. I own the sweetest senior cat named Tiger, who is very friendly to others and upon request can be isolated so there is no contact. I’m a personal trainer so I know what it takes to get a good exercise in and would love for you to know that your dog or cat is in great care!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Every animal I interact with I treat as my own. I have grown up with many in my house for years. Due to this, I know what animals can and cannot be around. Any rules the client may have about their pet will be followed, and an abundance of attention will be given towards your pet.

Dog Walking • Jan 20, 2026

Matthew did a great job with my dog. After the walk, my dog was happy, relaxed, and nicely exhausted from the exercise. You can tell he really cares and knows how to keep dogs active and engaged. Highly recommend!

Matthew is very reliable and honest. He is great with all animals and has high energy to run with them. I know this personally, because he has tirelessly run our puppy! If you need somebody who absolutely loves animals and will treat them like his own, Matthew is the right choice for you! Your four-legged family members will be in great hands if Matthew has them. I will definitely help spread the word about how highly recommended he is! Anytime I need a sitter/walker, he is my first call.

I will work with almost any pet, given the appropriate warning. If your pet has any allergies, illnesses, or chronic pain, please tell me ahead of time. Every pet should be taken care of with unconditional love and if your pet needs a little more attentions that’s Okay!
