Honest and reliable petsitting

Pet care experience

I've been a big dog lover since I was a boy. My first dog, Darcy, was a sweet German Shepherd mix, and I have fond memories of brushing her coat during the spring and watching her melt away before my eyes as she shed! I now have my own German Shepherd, Izzy, that I've taken care of for 10 years since she was a puppy. I'm experienced with puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs. Let me know what your pup's needs are and I'll do my best to accommodate you!

Matt always takes such great care of Bogey! He comes back, healthy and happy and I also get plenty of pics and communication during the day. I’d definitely recommend!

Ruthie had a great time at Matthew’s house! We loved our updates with pictures and texts and you could tell she was very comfortable staying with him and his sweet dog, Izzy, over the long weekend. Thank you!!

Matthew's an excelent caregivier and does a wonderful job with Max, my 1 year old Austrailian Shepherd, every time he watches him. Max is a little bundle of endless amounts of energy, yet he always comes home with a smile and ready for a nap. I highly recommend Matthew to anyone; he does it purely for his love of dogs, not for the money, and it shows.

Matthew is a wonderful dog dad! He always makes sure that his dog gets enough play time and walks in each day, even though he can easily just let her out in his yard. He is compassionate with all animals and will be a great person to have take care of your pet.

I have a fenced yard where dogs are free to roam and play safely. When the temperatures are too high or there is bad weather, I have plenty of space indoors to host your pup in comfort.

I work from home full time so I can provide full care to your dog. I walk my dog 2-3 times per day depending on the weather and temperature. Depending on whether I come to your home or your dog is hosted in mine, I can fit in multiple walks per day.
