Highlights
Pet care experience
I'm excited to meet your dog/cat!
What sets me apart is the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet I care for. I treat every dog like they’re my own—whether that means getting on the floor to play with a high-energy pup or taking slow, gentle walks with a senior dog who needs extra care. I have experience with senior care (including administering medications and accommodating mobility issues). I’m also great at reading dog body language and making shy or anxious pups feel safe and loved. My goal is always to keep your pet happy, healthy, and comfortable while you're away.
Cat care experience
Matthew also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Ratings and reviews
Thank you for your flexibility Matthew. I never need to worry about Bailey when she's in your care.
This is the second time Matt's watched my 2 dogs and he was great with them. He's very attentive about details and let me know when my elder dog had irritated an eye or was rubbing her ear a lot (totally normal for her). They seemed relaxed and happy when they came home.
Absolutely the best! It’s a pleasure not to worry about our girls when we travel.
Matt took great care of my anxious pup and was really detailed in getting to know her needs. I will rebook for future boarding!
Matthew was absolute fantastic when dog-sitting our border-collie mix, Pippa. He is very caring and responsive. Pippa immediately felt at home with Matthew and his partner. We got daily pictures and updates. Matthew was super flexible when our plane got delayed. Pippa will definitely come back in the future. Matthew is everything you can wish for when leaving your "baby" with a dog-sitter.
Matthew is great with our Bailey. She looks forward to seeing him everytime we go out of town. Highly recommend!

Schedule
I'm currently a full-time at home student and stay at home partner so I have plenty of time for all your pets needs outdoors or otherwise!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have an apartment with some larger open spaces, a pet friendly couch, an outdoor porch, a walking trail 3 minutes away, and a dog park 15 feet from my door!
A typical day
I normally start by taking the pupper out for a quick walk and potty break. Then we come inside eat some breakfast and hang on the couch. Then I’ll take them out again in the afternoon. Then dinner and a last walk just before bed.
